WHO: No Silver Bullet For COVID
The Philippine Star|August 05, 2020
NEW YORK CITY (AFP) – The World Health Organization warned on Monday that there might never be a “silver bullet” for COVID-19 in the form of a perfect vaccine, and that the road to normality will be long, with some countries requiring a reset of strategy.
WHO: No Silver Bullet For COVID

“There is no silver bullet at the moment and there might never be,” WHO director general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus told a virtual news briefing from the UN body’s headquarters in Geneva.

More than 18 million people around the world are reported to have been infected with the disease and 689,000 have died, with some nations that thought they were over the worst experiencing a resurgence.

Tedros and WHO emergencies head Mike Ryan exhorted nations to rigorously enforce health measures such as mask-wearing, social distancing, handwashing, contact tracing and testing.
