UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres warned on Monday that the coronavirus pandemic is not the last. The world has to be prepared for the next pandemic. He said that on International Day of Epidemic Preparedness Day, we need to pay attention to this issue.
Earlier last week, the Director-General of the World Health Organization, Tedros Adhanom, said that no country can find a way out of the epidemic. A booster dose should not be seen as a ticket to the ceremony without due diligence. More people died in the year 2021 due to corona than the number of people who died of HIV, malaria and TB in the year 2020.
It is noteworthy that the Omicron variant of Corona is spreading rapidly. The World Health Organization has called it a variant of concern. Its first case was found in South Africa. It is said to be more infected than the delta variant.
