WHO warning of spike in cases in Europe
World Health Organization (WHO) Regional Director Hans Kluge warned of a spike in cases corona virus across Europe.
In the past two weeks, the number of new cases has more than doubled in more than half of European member states.
“We are facing a very serious situation happening before us,” he said BBC, Friday (18/9/2020).
As the number of confirmed infections worldwide crept to 30 million, more than 942,000 people have died since the virus emerged in China late last year.
Kluge said 300,000 new infections were reported across Europe in the last week, with weekly cases having exceeded those reported during the peak of the first wave in March.
“While these figures reflect a more comprehensive test, they also show an alarming rate of transmission across the region,” he said.
Kluge added, this increase is a warning to all.
Adults are less affected if they are infected with the virus, which makes up the largest proportion of the coronavirus cases recorded recently.
There is concern that there will be more cases of serious illness if the virus spreads to older and vulnerable groups.
According to WHO, there have been five million confirmed cases and more than 228,000 deaths across Europe since the pandemic began.
