The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared that COVID-19 is no longer a public health emergency of international concern (PHEIC).

Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the WHO Director-General announced that COVID-19 is now an established and ongoing health issue that no longer constitutes a PHEIC.

The committee members noted the decreasing trend in COVID-19 deaths, the decline in COVID-19-related hospitalisations and intensive care unit admissions, and the high levels of population immunity to SARS-CoV-2.
