#COVID19 This is how WFP is enabling the global health and humanitarian response:
🔺supply chain & logistics support
🔺dispatch vital medical cargo and supplies via the @unhrd network
🔺air transport for humanitarians
🔺real-time tracking food security, health & trade indicators
No country in the world will ever be free from the grip of the terrible new #Coronavirus if we don’t work together to fight it now in the poorest & most vulnerable places on our planet.
