WHO worsened its prediction on the pandemic
WHO made an emergency statement on the further development of coronavirus. Experts said that situation may become critical and there’s no evidence that the number of infected people will reduce.
Also, the experts believe that the death rate may drastically increase. Such statement was made by Hans Kluge, WHO Regional Director for Europe. He also added that the death rate increase will be connected with the increased number of infected people. That’s why Europe is preparing for the new COVID-19 wave.
Kluge also warned that youngsters are also in a risk group now as the contact with the elderly population will gradually increase. Experts called for young people to be more careful and pay more attention to their health, do not neglect quarantine measures and use protective equipment. Moreover, today the death rate may be inadequate due to the high number of hidden or unrevealed cases. The real number may be much higher.
