London ∙ The World Health Organization has revealed that the number of Covid cases in Europe has tripled in 6 weeks. This accounts for nearly half of all cases globally. Although the cases requiring intensive care are less, the hospital rate has doubled and Dr. Dr. Hans Kluge said.
53 countries in Europe reported 3 million cases last week alone. The disease is spread by Omicron, a variant of the corona virus. 3,000 people die every week. If this situation continues, Dr. Hans warned that the health sector in Europe, which was damaged by the first covid spread, will be in a serious crisis.
