(ANSA) - ROME, APRIL 27 - "While some countries in Europe are relieving the lockdown as a result of a few new Covid-19 cases, we urgently ask to continue identifying, isolating, testing and treating to ensure that the decline continues" . This is the appeal of the director of the World Health Organization (WHO), Tedros AdhanomGhebreyesus in the usual briefing on the coronavirus. "We can only give advice to countries but we don't have a mandate to force countries to implement our recommendations," said the director.
"When we declared the world's highest health emergency on January 30th - said the director of the UN agency - with only 82 cases of coronavirus outside China, the world should have listened better. All the Paesia could have activated the highest levels of security at the time" . "We give the best advice, some countries accept it, others reject it. Each country assumes its responsibility".
