Weather of Arabia - Sinan Khalaf - The World Health Organization announced the cancellation of the global emergency 3 years after its declaration due to the repercussions of the Corona virus "Covid-19", which caused the death of more than 20 million people around the world.

 

The Emergency Committee for the International Health Regulations of the World Health Organization discussed the situation of the pandemic, Thursday, at its fifteenth meeting regarding Covid-19, and the Director-General of the World Health Organization, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, agreed on the need to end the declaration of a state of public health emergency at the international level.

 

"For more than a year, the pandemic has taken a downward curve," Tedros said in a press conference on Friday.

 

"This trend has allowed most countries to return to life as we knew it before Covid-19," Tedros added.

 

The WHO declared the coronavirus outbreak a public health emergency of international concern in January 2020, about six weeks before it was described as a pandemic.

 

A global health emergency (PHEIC) mandates an agreement between countries to adhere to WHO recommendations for emergency management, and each country in turn declares its own public health emergency — declarations with legal weight that countries use to mobilize resources and implement measures to mitigate the crisis.
