WHO declares end of global COVID health emergency – Roya News English
Friday, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the official end of the coronavirus emergency it announced approximately three years ago.
WHO'S Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said: “With great hope, I declare COVID-19 over as a global health emergency.”
While the declaration has little 'practical effect,' it has significance since it claimed "at least 20 million lives" and affected everyone's daily routine across the globe for years.
