“COVID-19 is nearing its conclusion,” Boss WHO

Date:

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the COVID-19 epidemic is close to coming to an end.

The pandemic is progressively dying down, according to Dr. Tedros Ghebreyesus, Director General of the WHO, as a result of a decline in the number of fatalities worldwide.

However, Dr. Tedros Ghebreyesus stressed that more needs to be done to completely eradicate COVID-19 while speaking at a news conference in Geneva, Switzerland.

“We are now in a stronger position than ever to stop the pandemic. We have not yet arrived. But the end is close by,” he said.

He urged countries to keep up their efforts against the virus that has killed over six million people.

 Globally, 10,935 Covid-19 deaths were recorded in the week of September 5 to 11, according to WHO’s latest report.

That’s a decrease of more than 20 percent compared to the week before.

In that same period, the WHO reported 407 new deaths in Australia.

As of September 11, more than 6.4 million Covid-19 deaths had been reported globally since the pandemic began.

Australia has recorded 14,421 Covid-19 deaths, according to the last federal government update from September 9.
