The World Health Organization declared an end to the COVID-19 pandemic, but said the virus remains a 'global health threat.'
The World Health Organization declared Friday that COVID-19 is no longer a pandemic after three years and two months.
WHO Director-General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said Friday at a news conference that the virus claimed the lives of 20 million people worldwide, but fewer have been dying from COVID-19 in recent months. “For more than a year, the pandemic has been on a downward trend,” Tedros said. “With population immunity increasing from vaccination and infection, mortality decreasing and the pressure on health systems easing, this trend has allowed most countries to life as we knew it before COVID-19.”“But that does not mean COVID-19 is over as a global health threat,” Tedros said.
