The World Health Organization’s (WHO) Europe director said on Thursday that the continent could soon enter a “cease-fire” and a “long period of tranquillity” in the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus pandemic.

Dr. Hans Kluge cited increased immunity to Omicron either through vaccines or natural immunity, a “favorable seasonality pause” as Europe nears the end of winter, and the less severe nature of the Omicron variant as reasons for the more tranquil period.
