The World Health Organization (WHO) has warned the world that the “worst is yet to come” in the Covid-19 pandemic.
WHO head Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said the virus would infect many more people if governments did not start to implement the right policies.
His message remained “Test, Trace, Isolate and Quarantine”, he said.
More than 10m cases have been recorded worldwide since coronavirus emerged in China late last year. The number of patients who died is now above 500,000.
Half the world’s cases have been in the US and Europe but Covid-19 is rapidly growing in the Americas.
The virus is also affecting South Asia and Africa, where it is not expected to peak until the end of July.
Nigeria has more that 24000 confirmed cases more than 5000 has recovered and has recorded over 500 deaths
Restrictions in Nigeria are due to be eased as the PTF will before the end of the day announce if the second phase will be extended or the country moves to next level in the eased restrictions.
