Following the 10th meeting of its Emergency Committee on Wednesday, the World Health Organization (WHO) determined that the coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) pandemic remains an “extraordinary event.”

The virus “continues to negatively affect the health of communities around the world, poses a risk of international spread and interference with international transportation, and demands a coordinated international response,” according to the WHO.

The WHO issued temporary guidelines to countries, advising them to continue adopting “evidence-informed public health and social measures, treatments, diagnostics, and vaccines” to stop the coronavirus from spreading.

The WHO once again urged states to “adopt a risk-based approach to large gathering events by analyzing, mitigating, and communicating risks,” and to “have at least 70% of all countries’ populations vaccinated by the start of July 2022.”

The statement stated that governments “should strengthen procedures to collect and publicly disseminate metrics to monitor the burden of Covid-19, including as hospitalization rates, severe disease, and excess mortality,” as one of the key initiatives to take.

It also encouraged countries to ensure that “adequate surge capacity for crucial SARS-CoV-2 clinical care and post-Covid-19 condition” is available.

“States parties should improve access to health for all through strengthening health and social systems to cope with the pandemic’s repercussions, particularly on children,” according to the statement.

Following an uptick in reports of Omicron variant infections, numerous countries imposed bans on several African countries.

The WHO recommended that countries “remove or reduce international traffic limitations” in this context.

“The ineffectiveness of such measures over time is demonstrated by the failure of travel restrictions imposed following the detection and reporting of the Omicron variation to curb the international spread of Omicron,” it said.

According to the Strategic Advisory Group of Experts on Immunization (SAGE) recommendations, states should “recognize all vaccines that have obtained WHO Emergency Use Listing and all heterologous vaccine combinations” when it comes to Covid-19 vaccination.

“Conduct epidemiological investigations of SARS-CoV-2 transmission at the human-animal interface, as well as targeted surveillance on putative animal hosts and reservoirs,” the report added.
