The coronavirus pandemic is far from coming to an end any time soon, according to World Health Organization director-general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus.
Tedros also said that Tuesday marks six months since WHO first received reports of cases of pneumonia in China from an unknown cause — which would later be identified as caused by novel coronavirus infection.
"The six-month anniversary of the outbreak coincides with reaching 10 million cases and 500,000 deaths," Tedros said.
"Six months ago, none of us could have imagined how our world -- and our lives -- would be thrown into turmoil by this new virus."
