A senior official at the World Health Organization (WHO) said on Thursday that people in countries across the globe must be prepared for a “second or third wave” of COVID-19, the disease caused by the CCP virus, until a vaccine is available.
Dr. Hans Kluge, the head of the WHO in Europe, said in an April 30 statement in Copenhagen, Denmark, that Europe remains “very much in the grip” of the pandemic, despite positive signs it was passing the peak.
