WHO says the coronavirus crisis will NOT be called a pandemicDr Tedros Adhanom admitted the sudden spike of COVID-19 cases in Iran, Italy and South Korea in the past 24 hours is 'deeply concerning'. He made the comments at a conference in Geneva. hi=i am help Jami_USA Calling it a pandemic might scare people. A pandemic would cause air travel to stop. It already is a pandemic.

How many countries need to suffer before WHO finally realizes that CCP is harming all of us.
