(ANSA) - GENEVA, 21 DEC - The new English variant of the Covid "is not out of control".
It's the insurance that comes from the World Health Organization.
The head of the WHO health emergency Michael Ryan said, calling for the application of proven health measures.
"We had an R0 (virus reproduction rate) much higher than 1.5 at different times during this pandemic and we checked it out. So this situation is not, in that sense, out of control," Ryan said.
