Lockdowns should be lifted in two-week stages to stem Covid-19 spread – WHO

CORONAVIRUS | Countries that ease restrictions imposed to fight the spread of Covid-19 should wait at least two weeks to evaluate the impact of such changes before easing again, the World Health Organization (WHO) said today.

In its latest strategy update, the UN agency said that the world stands at a "pivotal juncture" in the pandemic and that "speed, scale, and equity must be our guiding principles" when deciding what measures are necessary.
