Indian Health Minister Mansukh Mandavia said today, Saturday, that his country has made it mandatory to provide proof of a negative “Covid-19” test for those coming from the country. China, Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong and Thailand.
The minister stated that those coming from those countries will be subject to quarantine if they show symptoms of Covid or their tests are positive.
And the World Health Organization warned in early December that the Corona pandemic is not over yet. And while at least 90% of the world’s population enjoys relative immunity, its Director-General Tedros Adhanom Gebreisius pointed out that there are “flaws in monitoring, testing, genome identification and vaccination, which provides the ideal conditions for the emergence of a new worrisome mutant that may cause a large mortality rate.”
The World Health Organization is the party authorized to declare the end of a pandemic. In this context, Philippe Sansonetti, a microbiologist at the Pasteur Institute, said during a forum last Wednesday: “This is a very important and often controversial moment,” considering that the organization is not ready to “declare the end” of the Corona pandemic yet.
