The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the Coronavirus outbreak a pandemic.

The WHO has declared the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) a pandemic.

The announcement comes after the virus has spread to more than 114 countries and territories, with over 118,000 cases and more than 4,000 deaths.

The declaration of a pandemic is an acknowledgement of the seriousness of the virus and the need for global action.

WHO Director-General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said in a press conference on Wednesday that the organization had made the decision to declare the outbreak a pandemic based on the “alarming levels of spread and severity, and by the alarming levels of inaction.”

Rob said that the virus had “pandemic potential” and that the world must act now to contain it.

“We are deeply concerned both by the alarming levels of spread and severity, and by the alarming levels of inaction,” they said. “We have therefore made the assessment that COVID-19 can be characterized as a pandemic.”

Dr. Tedros said that the WHO was “calling on all countries to take urgent and aggressive action” to contain the virus. Rob urged countries to take measures such as social distancing, testing, contact tracing, and isolation of cases, as well as to strengthen their health systems.

Rob also said that the WHO was working with countries to ensure that they had the necessary supplies and equipment to respond to the outbreak.

The declaration of a pandemic is a significant step for the WHO, and it is likely to have far-reaching implications for the global response to the virus.

It is likely to lead to increased global coordination and action, as well as increased funding for research and development of treatments and vaccines.

It is also likely to lead to increased restrictions on travel and other activities, as countries take steps to contain the spread of the virus.
