The World Health Organisation chief has warned 'the worst is yet ahead of us' in the coronavirus outbreak as many countries ease restrictive measures aimed at reducing its spread.

He and others, however, have previously pointed to the likely future spread of the illness through Africa, where health systems are far less developed.

WHO's technical lead for COVID-19 Maria van Kerkhove urged vigilance, saying a large proportion of the population who hadn't been infected remained susceptible."And so we need to ensure that the measures that are put in place are done carefully.

Mr Trump said the WHO failed to adequately share"in a timely and transparent" way information about the outbreak after it erupted in China late last year, which Dr Tedros disputed. People in Australia must stay at least 1.5 metres away from others and gatherings are limited to two people unless you are with your family or household.

Tedros is a poor dog controlled by dictator Xi. He helped China spread ChinaCoronaVirus and killed thousands of people. He is murderer ChinaLiedPeopleDied

piss off back to Ethiopia

So when it was a growing problem, it wasn't a problem to the WHO, but now it is waning in most places, now it's a big problem? 🤔

As PM said, if he had heard this wanker we now will be in big problem....

SBS seems to be attracting more and more tin foil hat Sinophobes.

Will WHO shut up for once and do their job instead of spreading fear and uncertainty? Of course he said that because the current situation plays out beautifully for China - his puppet master. They keep their economy going and growing while the whole world is on hold 🖕🖕🖕

Its an evolving new virus, no way to predict it so everyone is flying by the seat of their pants. What we must do is allow the scientists and drs to study on the run and change on the run and share with each other and through WHO to the world on the run. Let politics go for now

WHO done the most disgraceful job ever... And guess who has been the Orchestrator

I can't believe the World Health Organisation is under the leadership of a guy who is not willing to condemn China.

He warned nothing but money, it’s fraud data of WHO leading the biggest pandemic in human history

Can we also remember in all this talk of easing restrictions that CV19 started in 2019 with one person somewhere. ONE. Flattening the curve doesn't mean it's done. Getting back to normal too soon = going back to Square One like Snakes & Ladders.

If the Spanish flue is relevant, then the world better be prepared for a second, perhaps a third wave sweeping over humanity for opening up the economy without a vaccine.

More BS from the China stooge.

nicolasnicola22 Good Lord the trollbots are being paid well.

Yes we already know that without this CCP puppet tells us.

You DrTedros should resign NOW. WHO WhiteHouse realDonaldTrump CoronavirusUSA coronavirusaustralia 25AmendmentNow coronavirus

Somebody fire this guy already. Why is he still allowed to open his mouth? Nothing but rubbish comes out of it

Things people don't trust. 1) MSM 2) politicians 3) unelected dictators like the head of the WHO and UN.

Australia should know who we are being led by.

Remember when this pandemic started in China, and how he shrugged it off . Now 3 to 4 months later his tune is different. What a disgrace he is !

Oh no! Our biggest threat is not the virus itself, it’s lthe horsehit coming from this guys mouth. Resign.

Is that the same WHO that supports reopening of the Chinese wet markets where thee terribly contagious respiratory viruses keep originating from?

World Health Organization: the history of the body tasked with responding to the coronavirus pandemicSince its establishment in 1948 the World Health Organisation has played a vital role in the eradication of many deadly global diseases but it's now under attack by its biggest funding contributor “Under attack”? fails to report WHO gave deliberately false advice. On 29 FEBRUARY 2020 it said: Don’t ban travel or flights, keep everything open”. Then only China flights were being banned. WHO are in China’s pocket. Shame isn’t shut down. Pretty easy to work out why, hardly worth a comment. Trump ignores advisors, gets it wrong, blames everyone else and takes no responsibility. Situation normal.

Frontline health workers urged to remain vigilant | Sky News AustraliaFrontline health care workers are being urged to remain vigilant after two coronavirus outbreaks were linked to medical workers at the facilities. \n\nThe outbreaks in north-west Tasmania and a Western Sydney nursing home are responsible for four deaths and more than 100 cases of the virus. \n\nChief Nursing Officer Alison McMillan said that any nurses, doctors or aged care workers who felt unwell should not be attending work. \n\nImage: Getty This is a farce! ScottMorrisonMP should be protecting our medical staff with the proven prophylactic cure that HydroxyChloroquine . His inactions allow this & many more to contract & possibly die from this virus. Gross negligence on Scomos behalf! If they gave us appropriate ppe and we treated every patient as CV19 positive until proven otherwise, this would not be happening. Some patients are lying about their symptoms so they don't get quarantined and exposing staff. Bit sick of the blame falling on healthcare workers

UN climate change fund calls coronavirus an 'opportunity' to re-shape the world | Sky News AustraliaThe UN-funded financial arm of the Paris Agreement has labelled the killer coronavirus an “opportunity” to raise funds for climate change action and “relaunch economies on low-emission, climate-resilient trajectories”.\n\nThe extraordinary statements have been published in a document by the Green Climate Fund – an international organisation with a $10.3 billion budget (US).\n\nAustralia gifted it $200 million (AUD) in 2015 but Prime Minister Scott Morrison axed further contributions after questions were raised about funds being sent to China, the single largest CO2 emitter in the world.\n\n“While COVID-19 is causing untold suffering, the international response to this unprecedented health crisis in modern times offers an opportunity to direct finances towards bolstering climate action. GCF will continue to make critical investments in climate-resilient water resource management, health care facilities, agriculture and livelihoods – all of which are essential to subduing and overcoming the pandemic,” the organisation wrote in an official public update.\n\n“Similarly, we will step up our efforts to catalyse green investment to relaunch economies on low-emission, climate-resilient trajectories.\n\n“The Green Climate Fund is confident that only a united approach – bringing together determined efforts and innovation – will provide lasting solutions to both the COVID-19 pandemic and climate change.”\n\nThe Green Climate Fund went on to suggest that climate change was a threat comparable to COVID-19 which has killed 165,000 people, infected millions more and ravaged global economies.\n\n“The COVID-19 pandemic and the global response required to stem it shows the importance of acting together to solve unparalleled threats to people and our planet,” the GCF said.\n\n“The far-reaching impacts of COVID-19 are a stark reminder of the catastrophic implications the world faces if we don’t.”\n\nA Sky News special investigation last year revealed the GCF squandered $3.7 million fly Agenda 21 The UN, WTO & WHO will be broken up after this issue. funny how the far left aren't protesting outside Chinese Embassys and demanding they cut all co2 emissions, it's like as if they have granted them permission ClimateEmergencyHoax
