WHO Raises Coronavirus Threat Assessment To Highest Level

The WHO has raised the coronavirus alert level to 'very high' due to the increasing number of cases and affected countries. The organization emphasizes the need for governments to enhance efforts in protecting citizens and containing the virus. Despite the rise in cases, the WHO has not classified the outbreak as a pandemic, arguing that such a label could hinder containment efforts. They stress that with prompt action, the virus can be contained, as demonstrated by China's response. Currently, there are over 83,000 confirmed cases worldwide.
