COVID-19 Update by WHO Chief

There is a “massive disconnect rising” on the COVID-19 front, according to WHO chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus. “The pandemic is far from over,” he said, “and it won’t be over everywhere until it’s over everywhere.”

Dr Tedros said today (17 May) at a press conference in Geneva that there had been a global decrease in COVID-19 cases and deaths over the previous two weeks.

Concerning the Middle East, the WHO director-general said the health situation in the occupied Palestinian territories and Israel was “extremely concerning,” adding that “dozens of accidents involving health personnel and health facilities have occurred in the recent escalation of violence.” According to him, COVID-19 monitoring and vaccination have been seriously hampered, posing a health danger to the “whole country.”
