WHO envoy says coronavirus ‘will stalk the human race for a long time to come’

The special envoy to the World Health Organization doesn’t expect the coronavirus to disappear entirely until a vaccine is developed.

“We think it’s going to be a virus that stalks the human race for quite a long time to come until we can all have a vaccine to protect us,” Dr. David Nabarro, a representative for the WHO, told NBC.

 “There will be small outbreaks that will emerge sporadically and they will break through our defences,” he added.

To shield against them, Nabarro said, governments must institute policy measures and health infrastructure to “pick up cases as soon as they appear, isolate them, and stop outbreaks from developing.”
