WHO Boss In Quarantine After Contact With Someone Who Tested Positive For COVID-19
The World Health Organization (WHO) chief, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, said late Sunday that he was self-quarantining after someone he had been in contact with tested positive for COVID-19 but stressed he had no symptoms.
“I have been identified as a contact of someone who has tested positive for #COVID19,” Ghebreyesus said in a tweet.
“I am well and without symptoms but will self-quarantine over the coming days, in line with @WHO protocols, and work from home,” he added.
Tedros has been at the forefront of the United Nations health agency’s efforts to battle the pandemic.
COVID-19 has claimed nearly 1.2 million lives and infected over 46 million people worldwide since emerging in China late last year.
