Global Risk of Coronavirus is “High”, says the World Health Organization

The World Health Organization announced the global danger from Coronavirus was “high,” acknowledging an error in its earlier reports that stated it was “moderate.”
The U.N. health body announced in a situation report published late Sunday that the risk was “very high in China, high at the regional level and high at the global level.”
In a footnote, the WHO said there had been a “mistake” in previous communications published on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday which “mistakenly” said the global risk was “moderate.”
Asked for more detail, WHO spokeswoman Fadela Chaib said only that it was “an error in the wording.”
