World Health Organization (WHO) announced that it maintains the maximum level of preparedness in connection with the pandemic COVID-19exactly three years after the disease was declared an international public health emergency.

WHO Director General, Tedros Adhanom GhebreyesusAccording to the statement, he followed the recommendations of an emergency panel on COVID-19, composed of experts, which met on Friday.

Committee declared an epidemic COVID-19 as a Public Health Emergency of International Concern on January 30, 2020, while out of just 100 deaths outside of China, no deaths have yet been reported.

On Friday, WHO According to official figures, it has registered more than 752 million patients and almost 7 million deaths, which, according to the organization itself, are much lower than reality.

“As we enter the fourth year of the pandemic, there is no doubt that we are now in a much better position than a year ago when the omicron surge was at its peak,” Tedros said at the opening of his Executive Board meeting. Committee meeting in Geneva.

But he immediately clarified: “Since the beginning of December, the number of reported weekly deaths has increased. Over the past eight weeks, more than 170,000 people have died from COVID-19″.

“Don’t underestimate the virus”

My message is clear: “Don’t underestimate this virus, it has shocked us and will continue to shock us and continue to kill if we don’t do more to provide medical care to those in need and to fight disinformation on a global scale.” he said, a week goes by.

In the week of January 16-22, half of the officially counted 40,000 deaths were in China, which recently abandoned its policy “COVID zero”one of the strictest in the world, in the face of popular discontent.

The Committee assessed that “the COVID-19 pandemic is likely to be in a transitional phase.”

Director WHO deplored the fact that very few people are vaccinated against the virus, either due to lack of vaccines or mistrust, despite several studies showing its positive effects.

“We can’t control the virus COVID-19but we can do more to address the vulnerability of populations and health systems,” Tedros said Monday (AFP).
