The director-general of the World Health Organization on Wednesday said that more cases had been reported to the agency in the past 24 hours than any time since the novel coronavirus pandemic began

Tedros Adhanom-Ghebreyesus, director-general of the World Health Organization, on Wednesday said that more cases had been reported to the agency in the past 24 hours than any time since the novel coronavirus pandemic began.

“We still have a long way to go in this pandemic,” Tedros said at a briefing in Geneva. “In the last 24 hours, there have been 106,000 cases reported to WHO -- the most in a single day since the outbreak began. Almost two-thirds of these cases were reported in just four countries.”, WHO infectious disease epidemiologist Maria Van Kerkhove confirmed to CNN.

CNN relies exclusively on Johns Hopkins University for its case and death counts, but the world’s preeminent health agency making this announcement today is newsworthy.

choptopmoseley And no surprise, the USA is one of the 4 countries where the increase is in!!!🙄

There’s a whole lot of idiots and neck beards that’ll comment “AnD tHeY wAnT tO LiFt ThE LoCkDoWn?!?” because they can’t comprehend the increase in testing being done. CNN, you ol’ rascal you!

It would be agreat decision if people in charge stop cutting corners and seek for their pupils life

The director of who?

Crap

Dispite what know all Trump says. It anit over yet. Needs to be charged with Genocide of the American people in the Hague!

More test have been done too 😒

Meanwhile, people with lupus and rheumatoid arthritis take HCQ every day for years on end.........

yeah well...CNN can't even get this right so I wouldn't sweat it

Sure. We believe EVERYTHING the WHO says right msm?

More lies from CNN (Communist News Network)

Almost no one in my town is wearing a mask or staying 6 feet apart. This pandemic is going to get even larger because these ignorant rednecks are more worried about their “rights” than about public safety.

It would be prudent for people to realize it is BRAZIL that contributed to this massive spike. 20K+ alleged cases added in last 24 hrs. - it would be prudent for YOU to include that in your headline. Your attempt at sensationalism, again, falls flat. STOP. NOW.

'the pandemic is over' - COVIDIOTS

Really? Cuz everywhere in the world cases are declining.

choptopmoseley Propaganda bullshit!!!!! And why would anyone trust the WhO!!! Democrats getting mad that we are starting to open up the country and they don't want that! If it was up to CNN they would close the world down for the next 5 years!!! CNN= fear monger

Every time more testing become available, the number of cases jumps up suddenly. That means that there are many more cases worldwide than we know about. This virus has spread to far more people around the world than we think it has.

In fear we trust

That's funny, because countries have been cutting ties with them for about a month.

Does anyone still pay attention to it?

Oh pug-leas! More fear tactics and propaganda.

Cameras on ..... Cameras off ... 👇👇👇🤔🤔🤔🤔
