WHO maintains highest global alert level for COVID-19

The World Health Organisation has reaffirmed its stance on COVID-19, maintaining its highest global alert level for the virus. It's been three years since the agency first declared the coronavirus a pandemic. But the WHO chief said the pandemic may be at a transition phase. Mr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus added that, although the world is in a much better position now, the response to COVID-19 remains hobbled.
