The whole world is passing through difficult times due to the coronavirus epidemic. Although the vaccine has been introduced in many countries, the virus has not yet been brought under control. The World Health Organization (WHO) has issued a new warning in this situation.
At a press conference on Monday, the head of the organization's emergency program Mike Ryan says the epidemic has taken a very serious turn. It spread very fast all over the world. But this is not necessarily the end, it may be more severe.
Dr. Ryan said the next epidemic could be even more devastating. This is why we have to 'work together' because we live in a fragile and increasingly complex society. Vaccination did not guarantee the eradication of infectious diseases, he added.
Bruce Aylward, a senior adviser to WHO, said the world had made significant scientific progress in tackling the ongoing crisis, and vaccines also introduced at record speeds. But this progress is still too little to ward off future epidemics.
The technical head of WHO on Covid-19, Dr. Maria Van Kerkhove says that while not rich, some countries have dealt better with corona than others. Because they already have experience fighting other infectious diseases.
Meanwhile, the head of the agency, Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, expressed hope that the current epidemic would help us prepare for future threats. However, he called for giving real importance to the issue.DailyBangladesh/SA Source: https://www.daily-bangladesh.com
