Underlining that common commitment to basic measures such as cleaning hands and physical distancing cannot be relaxed, Ghebreyesus stated: “Nor can the commitment to the tools that are the foundation of the response: to find, isolate, test and care for every case, and trace every contact. And to ensure health systems have the capacity they need to provide safe and effective care for all.
“WHO is grateful to many countries and donors who supported the first strategic and preparedness and response plan. We are also grateful to more than 300,000 individuals, corporation ns and foundations that have contributed to the solidarity response fund which has generated more than 210 million in just six weeks,” Ghebreyesus said, adding that the antidotes to this virus are national unity and global solidarity.
