The World Health Organization expects Europe to see an increase in deaths from COVID-19 in October and November, the head of the European branch of the WHO said in an interview with AFP.
“There will be higher mortality in October and November,” Hans Kluge said, noting that there is currently an increase in the number of newly infected people in the Old Continent, although the number of deaths remains relatively stable, BNR reported.
“At this time, the parties do not want to hear this bad news and I understand it,” he said, emphasizing that he wanted to send a “positive signal” that the pandemic “would end at some point.” Kluge also warned that creating a vaccine would not end the pandemic.
“I hear all the time, ‘The vaccine will be the end of the pandemic.’ Of course not! “It is categorical:” We don’t even know if the vaccine will help all groups in the population. ” “The end of the pandemic is the moment when we, as a society, learn to live with this pandemic. And that depends on us and it is a very positive message,” said the WHO Regional Director for Europe.
