Covid-19 Pandemic May 'Get Worse And Worse', WHO Chief Warns

The Covid-19 pandemic could 'get worse and worse', the head of the World Health Organization (WHO) has warned after a record-high 230,000 cases were confirmed yesterday.

Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, director general of the UN agency, made it clear that if countries fail to implement basic measures to control the virus, the crisis will get worse.

He has previously claimed that the peak of the Covid-19 pandemic was yet to come because the spread of the life-threatening disease is accelerating in some parts of the world.
