WHO DECLARE 2022 AS THE YEAR WE END THE PANDEMIC
As COVID-19 continues to wreak havoc across the world after the emergence of the Omicron variant, the World Health Organization (WHO) chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus has stated that the world must take strict measures to end the pandemic.
Speaking during a press briefing on Monday, Tedros urged the world to pull together and make the difficult decisions needed to end the Covid-19 pandemic within the next year.
“2022 must be the year we end the pandemic,” he said.
He said it was better to cancel events “now and celebrate later than to celebrate now and grieve later.”
Meanwhile, Uganda is set to fully open its economy in January.
