WHO declares Covid-19 no longer a "global health emergency"

This statement indicates a significant step in bringing an end to the pandemic, and it comes after three years since the highest level of alert was first declared by the WHO. The officials reported that the virus's death rate had reduced from a peak of over 100,000 individuals weekly to only 3,500 individuals on April 24th. Vaccines have played a significant role in the pandemic, with 13 billion doses administered worldwide.

What factors contributed to the decrease in the death rate from Covid-19, and what should be the course of action for countries after the pandemic's highest level of alert has been lifted?
