Who Announces COVID-19 Pandemic Is Plateuing Globally

The World Health Organisation (WHO) has announced that the number of COVID-19 cases and deaths around the world is plateauing. In most areas the pandemic is declining, including in the Americas and Europe. Currently, approximately 5.4 million cases and 90,000 deaths are being reported a week – still an alarmingly high number.

Unfortunately, India is still battling huge case numbers and deaths. Most experts anticipate the true number of cases and deaths to be far higher than reports. The coronavirus variant B.1.617 identified in India last year has also now been classified by the WHO as a variant of global concern, with initial studies showing that it can spread more easily.

The world may slowly be emerging from this pandemic, but the risk is still present. Keep COVID-safe as we enter this next phase.
