There May Never Be A COVID-19 ‘Silver Bullet’, Warns WHO; To Meet India On High Sero-Positive Rate

  • 4 years ago
The World Health Organization on August 3 warned that there might never be a "silver bullet" for the new coronavirus, despite the rush to discover effective vaccines. WHO urged governments and citizens to focus on doing the known basics, such as testing, contact tracing, maintaining physical distance and wearing a mask in order to suppress the pandemic. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, WHO Director-General told a virtual press conference that there is no ‘silver bullet’ at the moment. Reportedly, the novel coronavirus has killed nearly 690,000 people and infected at least 18.1 million since the outbreak emerged in Wuhan in China in December 2019. Meanwhile, WHO will hold a meeting with an Indian delegation later this week to analyse the unusually high rate of exposure to the novel coronavirus found in the sero-surveillance studies conducted in Delhi & Mumbai.
