Coronavirus Pandemic Is Getting Worse: World Health Organization

Although nations like New Zealand have effectively eliminated the coronavirus, the World Health Organization announced that globally, the numbers are trending up. “More than 100,000 cases have been reported on nine of the past 10 days,” said the Director General of the WHO. Most of those new cases are in the Americas and in Asia, he added. Meanwhile, New York City began phase one of its return from lockdown, though the city remained relatively quiet.
