WHO announced the Pandemia of Coronavirus

The World Health Organization (WHO) announced the world pandemic of Coronavirus. This statement today was made by the head of the Ned Tedros Adan Gebebrasus.

What happened

WHO, for a long time calling for correctness and caution when using the concept of "pandemia", today announced the pandemic of coronavirus and justified why it was necessary.

• WHO emphasizes that this is the first pandemic of coronavirus in history - but at the same time the first pandemic that humanity can control.
• Of the 118,000 in 114 countries, 90% of cases were noted in only four countries, and in China and South Korea, the ebature rates are declining. But 81 countries did not record a single case, in 57 - 10 cases and less.
• Over the past two weeks, the number of cases of coronavirus outside China has grown 13 times, all dead 4,291 people.

"We are ready to say this even more often and even louder: all countries can still turn backperson. If they consistently detect and confirm the symptoms of the disease, take measures to treat, isolation, monitoring patients and mobilize all their forces, countries with isolated cases are able to prevent individual cases into clusters, and clusters into infection of communities."

What's next

After the detection of the Dow Jones index, and so falling more than 3%, it reached 5%. Brent oil quotes practically did not decrease, remaining at $ 36 per barrel.

Today, the German Chancellor Angela Merkel admitted that 70% of the country's population can get a coronavirus infection - the main thing is to prevent its rapid spread.

The definition of the WHO fundamentally does not change anything, said CNBC Former FDA functionary Scott Gotlib: the distribution of coronavirus met the criteria of the pandemic a week ago. According to him, already taking measures to restrain the infection: "The epidemic may return in the summer or autumn, but by that time we should already have a specific medicine or vaccine."
