The World Health Organization has announced the world’s largest coronavirus pandemic, CNN reports.
According to WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, a new coronavirus outbreak as pandemic for the first time.
“Describing the situation as a pandemic does not change WHO’s assessment of the threat posed by this coronavirus. It doesn’t change what WHO is doing, and it doesn’t change what countries should do,” the Director General said.
The specific criteria for a pandemic are not universally defined, but there are three general criteria: a virus that can cause illness or death; sustained person-to-person transmission of that virus; and evidence of spread throughout the world.
