comprehensiveReuters、UN NewsAccording to the report, Tan Desai said at the 76th World Health Assembly held in Geneva (Genève, Switzerland) on the 22nd, “The cancellation of the global health emergency is not the end of the threat of COVID-19. The emergence of another mutant strain will trigger New outbreaks and deaths. Other deadlier pathogens may also pose a serious threat.”
