MANY COUNTRIES CAN'T BLOCK CORONAVIRUS

Many countries are not yet ready to withstand the epidemic of viral pneumonia, which occurred in late December in China and has spread to 15 other countries, the GPMB, an international control body in Geneva, warned today.

The Global Standby Supervisory Board (GPMB), an independent body set up in 2018 by the World Health Organization (WHO) praised China's transparency in information dissemination, including virus genome sequencing and strong collaboration between China and countries affected by the epidemic of viral pneumonia.

The organism has been alarmed by the fact that many countries are not prepared to withstand this threat.
