Geneva: Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, head of the World Health Organization (WHO), expressed concern on Tuesday that the states should take “rational” steps to fight against new variant of Omicron. He said that some states were introducing blanket measures against the Omicron that were “not evidence-based or effective on their own”. In a speech to the WHO’s 194 member states, he encouraged them to take “rational, proportional risk-reduction measures” in keeping with the organization’s 2005 International Health Regulations.
