Mike Ryan, executive director of the World Health Organization’s emergency health program, recalled that the human immunodeficiency virus, which also crossed the interspecific barrier, could not be defeated.
The coronavirus can remain forever in the human population. Such an opinion at a briefing on May 13 expressed Mike Ryan, Executive Director of the Health Emergencies Program of the World Health Organization.
“We are dealing with a new virus that has entered the human population and therefore it is very difficult to predict when we will prevail over it.” […] This virus can become another endemic virus, that is, this virus can never disappear, “he said.
As an example, he cited the human immunodeficiency virus, which, like the coronavirus, entered the human population of animals.
“HIV did not disappear, we reconciled with the virus, we found treatment methods, prevention methods … People are not as scared as before … I do not compare these two diseases, but I think it is important that we analyze the things of realistically, “Ryan said.
He added that the WHO hopes to open a “highly effective vaccine that can be distributed to all who need it.” In this case, Ryan noted, the coronavirus may expire.
