The pandemic isn't over...

...according to the Head of WHO (World Health Organization). True, reported cases have been declining over the past several weeks, but infections are once again increasing globally—especially in parts of Asia.

He also warned that the rising case numbers are "just the tip of the iceberg," due to the reduction of testing in many countries—making the full scale of infections unknown. Plus, we have the problem of people not getting vaccinated.

His thoughts come as restrictions and public health funding are being rolled back in the U.S., even as infections have risen dramatically in China, South Korea, Hong Kong, and many European nations this week.
