According to the latest balance sheet of the AFP, based on official figures, COVID-19 disease has caused exactly 200,736 deaths, While the WHO warned about the delivery of “immune passports” that may favor the spread of the pandemic, an idea proposed by several countries to accompany the lack of confidence.
