The meaning of WHO saying the COVID emergency ahs ended
Fri, 2023-05-05 18:18 —

WHO says COVID emergency is over. So what does that mean?
The World Health Organization says COVID-19 is no longer a global emergency but the coronavirus is here to stay. The action Friday by the United Nations agency doesn’t mean much for the average person. The classification is meant to warn countries that there’s an “extraordinary” event that could pose a health threat and requires a coordinated response. Health officials say the virus isn’t going anywhere and advise people to get vaccinated, including getting booster doses if they qualify. WHO has previously declared global emergencies for outbreaks of swine flu, Zika, Ebola, polio and mpox, formerly called monkeypox.

The head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is resigning. Dr. Rochelle Walensky says the waning of the COVID-19 pandemic is a good time to make a transition.

Ivermectin suporters lose in Wisconsin Supreme Court

Wisconsin Supreme Court won't order ivermectin use for COVID
Wisconsin’s conservative-controlled Supreme Court ruled a hospital couldn't be forced to give a deworming drug to a patient with COVID-19, saying a county judge did not cite a legal basis for ordering the facility to administer ivermectin. Ivermectin became popular among conservatives after commentators and even some far-right doctors held up the antiparasitic drug as a miracle cure for the coronavirus and other illnesses. But the Food and Drug Administration hasn't approved it for use in treating COVID-19 and warns that misusing ivermectin can be harmful, even fatal.
