New Delhi, 23 August 2020 Sunday

World Health Organization (WHO) Director Tedros Adhanome Ghebrayes has made a big statement about the epidemic. According to Tedros, the epidemic could end within two years. It took two years to eradicate the Spanish flu in 1918. Currently the technology has advanced a lot, so the Corona could be stopped soon.

According to Tedros during a virtual press conference in Geneva, we also have the technology and knowledge to prevent epidemics. If we look at history, we can see that epidemics cause changes in the economy and society.

According to Dr Michael Ryan, executive director of the WHO's health disaster program on Friday, coronary heart disease cases in India have doubled in three weeks, but are steadily rising. Not only in India but also in the densely populated countries of Bangladesh, Pakistan and South Asia, the epidemic situation is not explosive, but there is a risk of it happening. Ryan warned that if the transition starts at the community level it will spread very quickly.

Ryan said the influx of people into India has resumed, so there is a risk of the infection spreading. So, Soumya Swaminath, chief scientist at the WHO, said that the total number of corona cases in India, with a population of 130 crore, is not high, but it is important to keep an eye on the rate and pace of infection.

The WHO praised India's efforts to control the transmission of the corona. According to Tedros Gabrias, the country faces a serious challenge, so be careful. The Living India scheme will help corona.
