WHO warns of need to fight new flare-ups
Dr Mike Ryan, head of WHO's emergencies program, said Western Europe and elsewhere needed to react fast to new flare-ups.
More than 19.92 million people have been reported to be infected by the coronavirus globally and 729,883 have died, according to a Reuters tally.
Ryan also said the WHO trusts powerful nations such as the Group of Seven to reach a consensus on how to approach health crises such as the coronavirus.
"We are all vulnerable to risks, we need to find global solutions," Ryan said, "we trust the G7 will play a major part in that in the months and years to come."
Ryan said that Brazil is registering 50,000-60,000 cases per day. "Brazil is sustaining a very high level of epidemic, the curve is somewhat flattened, but it's not going down and the system is under great deal of pressure."
