The World Health Organization (WHO) has warned that the footage of thousands of football fans during the European Championships did not send a positive signal to the world.

Michael Ryan, director of the WHO emergency program, recalled that while a relatively large number of people in Europe have already received the vaccine, vaccination is restricted in other areas.

And that is why the developed world should be in solidarity. In his opinion, the measures will be more difficult to enforce when people see “exuberant entertainment” in Europe. “The reality of most of the world is that they are not returning to normal. It is really important that we show solidarity. “ he said Ryan according to the DPA.

The final at Wembley was watched live by 60,000 spectators, and after a match in which the Italians defeated the English in a 3: 2 shootout, thousands more took to the streets. “The world should fight together, the delta of variants is expanding and constantly brings new cases and death,” added the head of the WHO Adhanom Ghebreyesus.
