Complete eradication of the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 is unlikely, Michael Ryan, director of the World Health Organization (WHO) emergency response program, said on May 6, according to the WHO press service. .
According to him, the global community is quite capable of eliminating the public threat associated with this virus.
“Can we remove this virus? I think it’s highly unlikely, if not impossible.”Ryan said.
He said the coronavirus has become a recurring or episodic disease. It will come in waves.
“These waves arise to the same extent under the influence of the emergence of new options [коронавируса]which is also influenced by the seasons”, he explained.
According to the expert, the spread of the coronavirus, like the common flu, occurs more easily in the presence of large groups of people if they are in close contact with each other. This often happens in the winter. Therefore, the coronavirus has a number of seasonal qualities, but it is not completely seasonal.
Despite this, Ryan made a forecast for the coming winter. According to him, next winter there will be a high activity of this virus. Therefore, it is necessary to remain vigilant.
