The peak incidence of coronavirus is yet to come
News / / January 03, 2021
At a briefing in Geneva, World Health Organization spokeswoman Margaret Harris said that the peak incidence of COVID-19 is still ahead. About it writes Reuters.
According to Margaret Harris, 90% of all infections now occur in Europe and the United States. At the same time, in European countries, things are different: if in Italy and Spain there is already a decrease in the number of diseases, then in the UK and Turkey there is still a constant increase.
In China, the situation has returned to normal, but cases of infection in the country are still recorded. Most of them are imported, and most often from Russia, Harris noted. She also said that the vaccine against COVID-19 in the next 12 months is definitely not worth waiting for.
On April 14, the total number of people infected worldwide approached the 2 million mark. Most cases in the United States - 588 thousand. In second place is Spain, where 172 thousand infected were recorded. Slightly less, 159 thousand, in Italy. In Russia, more than 21 thousand infected have been confirmed.
