Breaking:
Die @WHO hat soeben das #PandemieEnde ausgerufen!

Genauer gesagt hat sie das Ende des "#PublicHealth Notstands von internationalem Ausmaß" verkündet
(engl.: Public Health Emergency of International Concern = #PHEIC)

Aber: Das Virus bleibt!
#CovidIsNotOver

I'd like to point out that an emergency is not something that lasts three years. If you are still on fire after three years, then maybe you just deserve to die.

TIL that "Notably, although covid-19 (sic) is routinely referred to as a pandemic, this word is not used in the International Health Regulations." #PHEIC #COVID19

On Friday the @WHO@twitter.com's Emergency Committee on #Covid19 met for the 14th time. Their report was just published and they recommend keeping #covid19 as a public health emergency of international concern (#PHEIC) for now:

But they also say "that the COVID-19 pandemic may be approaching an inflexion point" and recommend that WHO and partners "should develop a proposal for alternative mechanisms to maintain the global and national focus on COVID-19 after the PHEIC is terminated"

My first @ftopinion@twitter.com column of 2023 - a sense of #Covid deja vu,with unreliable data from China and Spring Festival coming. Surreal to think that WHO considered ending the #PHEIC last year.

Today, with XBB1.5 on the rise, things look… unpredictable
