In my briefing today, I informed media that based on latest #coronavirus developments we have now increased our assessment of the risk of spread and the risk of impact of #COVID19 to very high at a global level.
What we see at the moment are linked epidemics of #COVID19 in several countries, but most cases can still be traced to known contacts or clusters of cases. We do not see evidence as yet that the virus is spreading freely in communities.
There are things every individual can do to protect themselves & others today. Your risk depends on where you live, your age & general health.
@WHO provides general guidance, but you should also follow your national guidance & consult local #healthworkers

Together, we are powerful.
Our greatest enemy right now is not the #coronavirus itself. It’s fear, rumours and stigma.
And our greatest assets are facts, reason and solidarity.
