Tiwala ang World Health Organization (WHO) na matatapos na aabot pa sa hanggang dalawang taon bago tuluyang mawala ang coronavirus.
Ayon kay WHO Director Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, dahil sa makabagong teknolohiya sa mundo hindi malabong mabilis itong matatanggal sa mundo.
“Throughout history, outbreaks & pandemics have changed economies & societies. #COVID19 is no different, but it gives us a once-in-a-century opportunity to shape the world our children will inherit,” ani Dr. Tedros. “We must all learn to control and manage this virus using the tools we have now, and to make the adjustments to our daily lives that are needed to keep ourselves and each other safe.”
Mayroon umanong tatalong “waves” para sa nasabing sakit na humawa ng maramihang indibidwal.
Nagbabala pa rin ang WHO na ang nasabing virus ay posibleng makabalik din pagkatapos ng ilang taon.
“Progress does not mean victory. The fact remains that most people remain susceptible to this virus. That’s why it’s vital that countries are able to quickly identify and prevent clusters, to prevent community transmission and the possibility of new restrictions. No country can just ride this out until we have a vaccine. A vaccine will be a vital tool, and we hope that we will have one as soon as possible. But there’s no guarantee that we will, and even if we do have a vaccine, it won’t end the pandemic on its own.”
