The chief of the WHO World Health Organization, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, is very concerned about the way the coronavirus is spreading in recent days: without a clear link with a previous carrier or an infected region. It seems that someone who has no symptoms However can transmit the virus.
If the disease reaches Africa, the consequences cannot be foreseen, he said. “Our main concern remains that the COVID-19 virus may spread to countries with weaker health systems.” Ghebreyesus, himself an Ethiopian, called on African countries to defend themselves better against the virus.
There is uncertainty whether the incubation period – the time that you can transmit the disease – is really two weeks, and no longer. In addition, the outbreak in South Korea (possibly also North Korea) has become much more serious and there are three deaths and many infections in both Italy and Iran.
There is also a Dutch link: A Dutch company is suspected of fraud in the trade in mouth caps.
