U.N. Secretary-General's Special Envoy for Ebola David Nabarro addresses the media on World Health Organization 's health emergency preparedness and response capacities in Geneva, Switzerland, July 31, 2015. — ReutersA World Health Organization special Covid-19 envoy predicted a third wave of the pandemic in Europe in early 2021, if governments repeat what he said was a failure to do what was needed to prevent the second wave of infections.

"Now we have the second wave. If they don't build the necessary infrastructure, we'll have a third wave early next year," said Nabarro, a Briton who campaigned unsuccessfully to become the WHO director general in 2017. Nabarro singled out Switzerland's move to allow skiing - with masks required in gondolas - as other Alpine nations like Austria have shuttered resorts. Nabarro said Switzerland could reach a"very high level of sicknesses and deaths".
