WHO hints on how long COVID-19 will last

The World Health Organization, WHO, has indicated that the pandemic of coronavirus may last for less than two years.

WHO president Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said COVID-19 combat could be fought in less than two years with new technology and international cooperation.
Ghebreyesus disclosed this on Friday while addressing a news conference in Geneva, Switzerland, NAN reports.

He said while COVID-19 can spread more easily because the world is far more interconnected than it was 100 years ago, modern technology has given humanity the tools to fight the virus more effectively than the Spanish flu.
Hoping we can have additional tools like a vaccine, I think we can finish it in a shorter time than the 1918 flu.

“So we hope to finish this pandemic in less than two years,” he said.
