WHO Director General Tedro’s opening remarks 12/10: “We cannot talk about COVID in the past tense. It’s still with us, it still causes acute disease and “#LongCOVID”, and it still kills.
On average this year, about 1000 deaths from COVID-19 have been reported to WHO each week – and that’s just from the few countries that are still reporting.
The world might want to forget about #COVID19, but we cannot afford to.”
