The head of the World Health Organization (WHO) has warned against complacency in the fight against the coronavirus, saying the disease “will be with us for a long time.”
Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus also warned of upward trends in COVID-19 cases in Africa, Eastern Europe, Central America and South America.
He said that lifting lockdowns could cause infections to “reignite.”
Dr Tedros also defended the WHO’s handling of the pandemic.
He said he believed the UN agency had warned the world of COVID-19 early enough.
“Looking back I think we declared the emergency at the right time and when the world had enough time to respond,” he told a daily briefing in Geneva. The WHO declared COVID-19 a Public Health Emergency of International Concern on 30 January and said it had become a pandemic on March 11.

-I wonder why………”tragic” is an understatement:
I keep saying the same thing I know we are looking at the economy now, but I thing we need to be concern of the tragedy it could cause knowing there are people who are not obeying the curfew nor social distancing, be careful we don’t open a can of worms.
Look at what’s happening in Florida
Isn’t this common sense
Anyone that follows up on this virus knows this
Anybody who listens to WHO are just truly lost. The plan is lock people down and negotiate your freedom for a Bill Gates vaccine that will fuck you up. Now Donald Trump has stopped funding the WHO guess who’s the biggest funder?
You can’t lockdown forever…no Caribbean country can go beyond 2 months of lock down…
I swear this shit here is a movie
People the lockdown is not the answer and never was ..distancing works but only when you use you mask and eye shield correctly and wash your hands properly….mask are for when your talking ..,taking it off to talk defeats the purpose .. covering you nose and mouth and leave your eyes exposed defeats the purpose…be smart be safe
