Coronavirus could reach most “if not all countries” – WHO warns

Admin February 28, 2020

WHO demands political commitment to win fight against diseases

Coronavirus outbreak is “getting bigger”, the World Helath Organization (WHO) said on Friday after Nigeria confirmed sub-Saharan Africa’s first case, reiterating its warning that the virus could reach most “if not all countries”.

WHO spokesman Christian Lindmeier told a Geneva news briefing that it was looking into reports of some people getting re-infected, which would include reviewing how were tests taken, adding: “But in general a person who had coronavirus infection would be immune at least for a while.”

A WHO mission to Iran – which has now reported 388 cases and 34 deaths – is supposed to start early next week, and is still being put together, he said. REUTERS
