In an evolving public health emergency, all countries must step up efforts to prepare for
#2019nCoV’s possible arrival and do their utmost to contain it should it arrive. This means lab capacity for rapid diagnosis, contact tracing and other tools in the public health arsenal.Diesen Thread anzeigen -

@DrTedros believed nothing, he was just waiting for the check to clear
