The World Health Organization says 90 million cases of the coronavirus have been reported since the omicron variant was first identified 10 weeks ago. That's more cases than in all of 2020, the first year of the pandemic.
Many European countries have begun easing lockdown measures, including Britain, France, Ireland and the Netherlands. Finland will end its COVID-19 restrictions this month.
“Now is not the time to lift everything all at once. We have always urged — always urged — caution in applying interventions as well as lifting those interventions in a steady and in a slow way, piece by piece,” said Maria Van Kerkhove, WHO’s technical lead on COVID-19. Speaking to countries’ governments, he said: “Every country has to find its feet, know where it is, know where it wants to go, and chart its path ... You can look at what other countries are doing. But please don’t just follow blindly what every other country is doing.”
