WHO predicts an increase in the incidence of COVID-19 and polio in Ukraine

According to the World Health Organization, the coronavirus may have increased in October.

The World Health Organization predicts that the increase in the incidence of COVID-19 in Ukraine may increase in October 2022. This is what WHO Director-General Tedros Ghebreyesus said at a conference of the European Regional Committee in Tel Aviv, Reuters reports.

“Today we are seeing an increase in cases of COVID-19 in Ukraine. We predict that transmission of the virus may increase in early October and hospitals may be almost full,” said Ghebreyesus.

Also, the WHO is concerned about the risk of polio spreading due to low vaccination rates and displacement of people due to war.

The head of the WHO also predicts a lack of oxygen for patients, since the main sources of supply are located in the occupied territories. And oxygen is needed for patients with COVID-19 and other critical illnesses caused by complications of pregnancy, childbirth, sepsis, injuries, etc.
