A top health official in China said that COVID-19 remains a threat despite the World Health Organization's declaration of the end of the global emergency. China will continue to monitor virus mutations, promote vaccines among high-risk groups, and look forward to improving treatment capabilities against the disease, he said.
The WHO announced on Friday that Covid-19 is under sufficient control to raise the maximum alert associated with it after more than 3 years of the spread of this epidemic. But in many countries, the epidemic has faded and health screenings and surveillance have been kept to a minimum.
