The global COVID emergency has come to an end
The World Health Organization has announced that COVID-19, after three years of impacting lives, economies, and causing the death of millions, is no longer a global health emergency.
This announcement marks a significant step towards ending the viral pandemic, for which the highest level of alert was issued three years ago.
Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the Director-General of the World Health Organization, stated that this virus has left a deep wound in the world, and the announcement is a moment to celebrate.
However, he also warned governments to remain vigilant and stated that COVID-19 now needs to be managed alongside other infectious diseases.
The Director-General of the World Health Organization also expressed respect for the scientists who developed vital vaccines to combat COVID-19.
