The question is no longer "whether" there will be
a second wave of coronavirus infections, but "when and how
devastating" it will be, says cell biologist Jennifer Rohn, who has been
closely following the development of the pandemic in Asia and its spread. all
over the planet.
The World Health Organization (WHO) has said that the new
coronavirus may be here to stay and that keeping it under control will require
"massive effort."
Even countries with effective strategies to deal with the
pandemic through testing, tracing, and confinement, such as South Korea and
Japan in Asia, but also Germany in Europe, have seen new spikes in infections
after restrictions were relaxed .
This week, the European Union's covid-19 response team
suggested that Europe should prepare for a second wave.
"The question is when and how big," said team
principal Andrea Ammon, according to a report in The Guardian newspaper. (BBC)
