HIGHLIGHTS
• No new country/territory/area reported cases of COVID-19 in the past 24
hours.
• Dr. Bruce Aylward, Special Adviser to WHO’s Director-General, speaking of his
recent mission to Spain at a press briefing yesterday, highlighted the need for
countries to understand that the virus can overwhelm even the most robust
health systems, resulting in the need to entirely reconfigure health sectors in
response. Find more about Dr. Aylward’s recent fact-finding mission to Spain
here.
• OpenWHO, a web-based learning platform, has launched a new online course
Introduction to Go.Data – Field data collection, chains of transmission and
contact follow-up. The Go.Data tool supports outbreak investigation, focusing
on field data collection, contact tracing and visualisation of chains of
transmission. It is available to WHO staff around the world, Member States
and partners. For more information, please see here.
• As the number of cases continues to climb in Europe, two new WHO tools
launched today will help health planners in the European Region prepare for
the rapidly increasing number of patients with COVID-19 requiring acute and
intensive care in hospitals. For more details, please see here
