‘Very premature and unrealistic’: WHO says end to pandemic unlikely this year – The New Daily
The World Health Organisation says it is unrealistic to expect the coronavirus pandemic will finish by the end of the year.
The World Health Organisation (WHO) believes it is unlikely the coronavirus pandemic will come to an end in the coming months.

“What we can, if we are smart, finish with is the hospitalisations and the deaths and the tragedy associated with this pandemic.”
