Coronavirus, WHO: “In October and November there will be a boom in cases and deaths”
This is the text of the message forwarded by Ghebeyesus and that contrasts somewhat with the behavior manifested until March by the same director, when, in fact, several times he used his elbow to say hello. This is also related to the issue that WHO advice invites people to sneeze and cough into the elbow, which thus becomes a potential receptacle for bacteria.
