UN humanitarian chief, Mark Lowcock

In a statement released on Sunday, the UN humanitarian chief, Mark Lowcock, said that it is not too late to contain COVID-19: “We do not yet see evidence that the virus is spreading freely. As long as that’s the case, we still have a chance of containing it”.

However, “swift and robust action must be taken to detect cases early”, he added, to “isolate and care for patients, and trace contacts. We must act now to stop this virus from putting more lives at risk”.
