The World Health Organization (WHO), has announced a more deadly stage of the pandemic yet to set in. This has been announced by the WHO director, General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus.

“We’re on track for the second year of this pandemic to be far more deadly than the first.”

Meanwhile, Japan has extended her state of emergency due to the growing calls for the cancellation of Olympics. Olympics set for this year have received a lot of opposition from people. It has even attracted 350,000 signatures calling for its cancelation. Currently, the virus has caused a state of emergency in three regions of the country. Namely; Hiroshima, Okayama and northern Hokkaido.

Even the athletes themselves have encouraged the cancelation of the Olympics if need be. Swiss tennis great Roger Federer said they need an affirmation on whether the Olympics are happening or not.

“I would love to play in the Olympics… But if that doesn’t happen due to the situation, I would be the first to understand.”

Covid-19 has several variants currently that are even more dangerous than the first wave. The variants spread faster and even kill faster compared to the very first wave. Several countries have confirmed cases of these variants from India, South Africa and Nigeria. Unfortunately, many people no longer observe the SOPs which has left people exposed to this virus.
