After the statement of the World Health Organisation director general Tedros Adhanom that the people of the world will now have learn to live with dreaded pandemic Covid 19 as they had been living with HIV for the last several years and that this deadly Coronavirus will last the whole life, there is a feeling of total insecurity in the minds and hearts of courtrymen around the world.

He even went to the extent of revealing that this virus will last for prolonged period in future or may be on life long basis despite the fact that several countries of the world are in the process of researching deeply in order to invent vaccine to counter this deadly pathogen.

This speculation about deadly Covid 19 pandemic by the WHO chief bringing no hope of early cure and resurrection globally has sent shock waves all over the country. The statements of the WHO DG and the executive director Reyan regarding pessimism in countering this deadly pandemic has indeed discouraged the people of the world, especially the poor, middle class and lower middle class population who not only can’t afford any expensive treatment but has also been held up due to this dreaded pandemic thus becoming bankrupt.

The way Covid 19 pandemic has surpassed all records in claiming lakhs of lives, globally and is also active on the terrible contagious spread ahead with an uncontrollable speed, claiming infinite number of lives and leading to the worst economic degradation, the statement of WHO DG has further made one and all to believe that in future, the citizens of the world will have to strictly and strongly follow the norms of social distancing, learn to live in isolation, mandatory to wear masks, sanitise themselves and others by washing hands repeatedly and seek immediate medical treatment as and when necessary.

According to various news reports however, several countries of the globe are actively involved in researching the relevant vaccine for Covud 19 and some of them have proven successful as well in countries like UK, Israel n Europeon Union. Several scientists have been testing the medicines on rats and in some cases allegedly on human beings.

According to a news report from France, a French Pharma Group of Sanofi has assured on Thursday that it would make its Covid 19 vaccine and when available would supply to all the countries of the world. However, the company’s CEO said that it will first serve the vaccine to USA.

However, Sanofi CEO Paul Hudson lateron angrily responded by assuring that they will make the vaccine available to everyone not only USA.

In another news dispatch from HAGUE a Europeon medicine agency said that a vaccine to cure deadly Corona Virus would be ready in a year’s time. The EU agency contradicted the WHO statement, saying that after the emergence of the vaccine, the WHO statement that the virus will never go away in future would be proved wrong.

Meanwhile there are currently about 45 lakh cases in the world with about three lakh or slightly more deaths due to the deadly pandemic Covid 19.
