He warned the parties not to relax. In the past nine days, more than 100,000 new infections have been reported daily, Ghebreyesus said. In Africa, Central and South Asia, Central and South America, and some countries in Eastern Europe, the numbers continue to grow. Since the virus outbreak in late 2019, nearly 7 million infections and almost 400,000 deaths.

The greatest danger in countries where the number of infections is decreasing is complacency or relaxation. Most people are not yet sick and can become infected, T. Ghebreyesus warned. “Now is not the time to take your foot off the pedal,” he added.

The WHO chief urged participants in anti-discrimination protests around the world to take precautions. These include distance, frequent hand washing and disinfection, and mouth and nose protection.
