World Health Organization’s chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus had earlier warned that Covid 19 won’t be the last pandemic. “History tells us that this will not be the last pandemic, and epidemics are a fact of life,” said Tedros.
So it the Time to invest in health
The World Health Organisation had earlier also added the Disease X in its priority list and exhorted countries to prioritise research and development into this. “Disease X represents the knowledge that a serious international epidemic could be caused by a pathogen currently unknown to cause human disease,” WHO said. WHO has also advised all countries to invest in preparedness capacities to prevent, detect and mitigate emergencies of all kinds, and called for stronger primary health care provision.
