GENEVA
The threat of a pandemic has become very real for the coronavirus that has crossed into 110 countries with more than 100,000 cases, the head of the World Health Organization (WHO) said Monday.
At a press conference at WHO headquarters in Geneva, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said that over the weekend, the world officially crossed 100,000 reported cases of COVID-19 in 100 countries.
“It’s certainly troubling that so many people and countries have been affected, so quickly,” said Tedros.
“Now that the virus has a foothold in so many countries, the threat of a pandemic has become very real.”
