COVID cases rising in Russia, Eastern Europe, waning in Western Europe: WHO

Spokeswoman of the World Health Organization (WHO), Margaret Harris, said on Tuesday, that new cases of COVID-19 reported daily are steadily declining in Western Europe, but not in hotspots in Russia and Eastern Europe.

“At the moment in Europe, in Western Europe, we are seeing a steady decline. It’s not speedy but there’s a steady decline in new cases being reported daily, so that means that the number of new cases are still significant but the number is coming down except for Russia and Eastern Europe where we are still seeing the rise.” Harris said.
