Armenia among 11 European countries facing Covid-19 resurgence
Europe has seen an increase in weekly cases of Covid-19 for the first time in months as restrictions are eased, BBC News reports, citing the World Health Organization (WHO).
In 11 places, which include Armenia, Sweden, Moldova, North Macedonia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Albania, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Kyrgyzstan, Ukraine and Kosovo, accelerated transmission has led to "very significant resurgence", said Regional Director Dr Hans Henri Kluge.
His warnings about the risk of resurgence had become reality, he said.
If left unchecked, he warned health systems would be "pushed to the brink".
