\n JOHANNESBURG \u2014 A global emergency delivery service that has kept tons of humanitarian aid flowing despite coronavirus travel restrictions could shut down next month if funding can\u2019t be found to keep it running, the World Food Program warned Friday.<\/p>\n

The shortfall comes \u201cjust as demand for this service is reaching its peak,\u201d WFP said. Of the $965 million to keep the service going through the end of the year, $178 million has been confirmed.<\/p>\n

Closed borders and airports around the world badly wrenched supply chains and stranded humanitarian workers and supplies. While nations that are traditionally the world\u2019s top aid donors were distracted by the growing pandemic, the WFP, the United Nations\u2019 logistics leader, heaved the emergency operation into place with unprecedented reach.<\/p>\n

The emergency delivery effort involves almost 130 countries, Amer Daoudi, WFP senior director of operations, told The Associated Press.<\/p>\n

Without these deliveries, many vulnerable countries will have to take some of the money they\u2019re spending on badly needed personal protective equipment and medical supplies and pay for commercial transport \u2014 and very little of that is available, Daoudi said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are the lifeline,\u201d he said. Without it, \u201cnational capacities across many vulnerable countries across the globe will come to a standstill.\u201d<\/p>\n

The emergency delivery service has been key in shipping tons of aid for the pandemic and other crises like HIV and cholera that need drugs and vaccines to keep flowing. The U.N. and various health entities have openly worried about dangerous delays in many countries\u2019 vaccination campaigns, saying the lives of up to 80 million children under the age of 1 could be at risk.<\/p>\n

So far, the World Food Program emergency service has completed 375 cargo and passenger flights, delivering more than 2,500 aid workers with \u201cenough cargo to fill 120 jumbo jets waiting to be transported in coming weeks,\u201d the WFP said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think the whole world needs to step up,\u201d Daoudi said. \u201cWhile everybody\u2019s struggling with their own internal issues, we cannot never lose sight of the global issue \u2026 no one is safe inside their borders unless we collectively come together in solidarity to fight this virus.\u201d<\/p>\n

He estimated that some 1 million cubic meters of supplies are expected for delivery between July and the end of the year.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve never been involved in anything like this before. I don\u2019t think any of us have,\u201d Stephen Cahill, WFP\u2019s director of logistics, told the AP in April. \u201cWe\u2019re seeing countries taking measures we think aren\u2019t always rational. When you start closing borders, we start to get very nervous.\u201d<\/p>\n

He spoke on April 16, when the world had more than 2.1 million coronavirus cases.<\/p>\n

On Friday, the number of cases was over 8.5 million, according to a Johns Hopkins University tally.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
