European region focusing on Coronavirus (COVID-19) readiness: WHO

European region focusing on Coronavirus (COVID-19) readiness: WHO

Copenhagen, Feb 15 (UNI) Countries in the WHO European region are gearing up to respond to importation of Coronavirus (COVID-19), post detection of the virus in China in December 2019.
This means that public health officials can rapidly respond to reports of suspect cases and identify contacts at high risk; hospitals have the necessary equipment and guidance to manage cases while protecting health-care staff and other patients from infection; and the public understands the level of risk posed by the virus and how to minimise it.
WHO works continually with countries to maintain and improve their national preparedness plans based on an all-hazards approach. This collaboration has facilitated rapid action and an effective transition from preparedness to active readiness for importation of the COVID-19 virus.
