Threat of an even deadlier pathogen remains, world must be ready: WHO

The end of Covid-19 as a global health emergency is not the end of the virus as a global health threat, WHO chief Tedros Adhanam Ghebreyesus has warned. In his address to the 76th World Health Assembly on Monday, Tedros said the threat of another variant that causes new surges of disease and death remains. He also warned that “the threat of another pathogen emerging with even deadlier potential remains”.
