"We are discussing the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine on Friday [...]," WHO spokesman Christian Lindmeier said.
He added that a decision on the US drugmaker's vaccine was expected in one to four days after that.
Covid-19 vaccines made by Pfizer, AstraZeneca and Johnson & Johnson had already gotten the 'green light' from the WHO, which constituted a signal to national regulatory authorities on a product's safety and efficacy.
On Monday, WHO experts were reviewing Chinese Covid-19 jab from drugmaker Sinopharm with a review of Sinovac's shot scheduled for 3 May.
