Countries that want to lift coronavirus restrictions must meet a row of conditions to prevent another surge of infections, the World Health Organisation (WHO) chief, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, said, yesterday.

In his weekly address to Geneva-based diplomats, Tedros said that easing social and economic curbs “must be done extremely carefully. If done too quickly, we risk a resurgence that could be even worse than our present situation.”

He said, first of all, governments must ensure that the spread of the novel coronavirus is under control.

According to new WHO guidelines, this means health authorities must know the origin of every single case and cluster of infections.

National health systems must also be able to find, test, isolate and treat every new case, and all recent social contacts of every infected person must be tracked down.

In addition, Tedros stressed that countries that want to ease their curbs must minimise infection risks in hot spot settings such as hospitals and nursing homes.

As a fourth condition, Tedros said preventive measures must be in place in workplaces, schools and other essential locations. These include physical distancing, hygiene etiquette and, possibly, temperature measurements, according to the new WHO guidelines.

Countries must also manage the risk of importing new cases from abroad by detecting infected travellers and quarantining those who arrive from hot spot countries.

Lastly, Tedros said it is important that “communities are fully educated, engaged and empowered to adjust to the ‘new norm’” of behaving in ways that prevent new infections.

    The club of criminals called WHO has no legitimacy on African Soil in this 21st century world of Multipolar international order in which Africa exist under Southern Countries Union- SCU. The so-called WHO is club of criminals of vanquished fallen Anglo-America. The club of criminals called WHO are spreading Coronavirus falsehood and fear in Africa to destroy African economy and steal wealth of African countries. The sickness called Coronavirus is Malaria related sickness. We Africans are used to Malaria related sickness and have the medication available and affordable. We Africans already live with Malaria pandemic in which we did not lockdown economic activities, did not destroy the economy. Malaria is contagious because mosquito spread Malaria. Malaria has killed millions of Africans. Only in 2018, Africa has about 400,000 Malaria death. By so doing, the sickness called Coronavirus is not a threat to Africans. The sickness called Coronavirus is only a threat to people of Europe and America because they are not used to Malaria related sickness and do not have the medication available locally, as a result, the sickness called Coronavirus became a pandemic in Europe and America. There’s no Coronavirus pandemic in Africa. Criminals are recoding Malaria diagnosis, treatment and death in Africa as Coronavirus.
