1:07Now PlayingThe world is within reach of beating the Covid-19 pandemic, the head of the World Health Organization said, shifting to a more upbeat tone while urging countries to keep working to control the virus.
“We have never been in a better position to end the pandemic,” WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said Wednesday in a briefing with journalists. “We are not there yet, but the end is in sight.”
Fewer deaths were linked to Covid around the world last week than in any time since March 2020, said Tedros, who has consistently warned against complacency even as countries eased restrictions. He urged countries to push forward with vaccinations, in particular of older and at-risk people, to plan for surges in cases and keep on testing and sequencing to track the virus.
