LONDON — Europe is facing a worrying resurgence in Covid-19 cases, according to the WHO’s Dr. Hans Kluge, who warned that the region was once again “at the epicenter of the pandemic.”
Kluge, the WHO’s regional director for Europe, which comprises 53 countries across Europe and central Asia, said the number of new daily cases was nearing record levels.
“Today every single country in Europe and Central Asia is facing a real threat of Covid-19 resurgence, or already fighting it.
