World Health Organization
Recognizing the impact of Covid-19 on global, economical and
financial status of individual countries, taking the note of United
Nations sustainable development goal no. 3(Good health and well
being)and no. 8(Decent Work and Economic growth).
United Nations and its partners are racing against time to ensure
that life saving personals, protective equipments and other supplies
reach frontline health workers in need.
Mental health is at core of our humanity, it enables us to lead rich
and fulfilling lives and to participate in our communities but the
Covid-19 virus is not in the attacking of physical health but it is also
increasing psychological suffering.
The World Health Organization (WHO) is working closely with
global experts, governments and its partners to rapidly expand
scientific knowledge on this virus, to track the spread
and virulence of the virus and to provide advise to the countries and
individuals on measure to protect health and prevent the spread of
this work.
The fight against coronavirus will not be won until every country in
the world can control the disease. But not every country has the same
ability to protect people.

Drawing attention to the Covid-19 pandemic internationally noting


with satisfaction the past efforts of various UN bodies and Non
Governmental organizations which have jointly collaborated to solve
pandemic challenges arising globally;

1) Emphasizes to build an antibody-based treatment for


Covid-19.
a) Antibody test treatment are the 'game changer’.
Antibody tests have captured the world’s attention for
their potential to help life return to normal by revealing
who has been exposed, and might now be immune, to
the new coronavirus.
b) Antibody tests are also being used by researchers
globally to estimate the extent of coronavirus infections
at a population level, which is extremely valuable given
that many places aren’t doing enough standard testing,
and people with mild or no symptoms will probably be
missed in official case counts.
c) These surveys test a portion of the population and use
that to estimate infections among the broader
community. More than a dozen groups worldwide are
doing such studies.
2) Encourages to build autonomous sensors which could
detect possible covid-19 symptoms.
a) Thermal Imaging
When the immune system detects an infection, the core body
temperature raises.
b) Vision-guided robots
It is vitally important to keep sick people away from others, including
the doctors and nurses. One way to do this involves using vision-
guided robots.

c)Additional uses of robots to minimize infection include those for


contactless delivery, medical sample transport, spraying disinfectants,
and performing diagnostic functions.
3) Requests to increase cooperation in production and
distribution of medical equipments and edible items by using
global supply chains.
a) The U.N. has launched what it's calling "solidarity flights" –
hiring charter planes to airlift millions of face masks, face
shields, goggles, gloves, gowns and other supplies.
b) The U.N. dispatched an Ethiopian Airlines charter flight
from Addis Ababa full of COVID-19 gear to transport to
countries in need.
c) Spreading awareness amongst people to make the best use of
medical equipments( face masks, face shields, goggles, gloves,
gowns and other supplies.)
4) Demands on restricting on the migration of the citizens
from one place to another in between in States and Cities.
a) Travel bans, closed borders and living conditions in camps
all amplify the risks to migrants, Social isolation is not an
option.
b) The flow of migrant workers could easily become vectors
carrying the coronavirus back to other states and cities.
5) Recommends organizations to have a professional crises
manager plan in place.
a) In this crisis management situation, companies are grappling
with managing the impact of the outbreak on their ability to meet
strategic goals and customer demands.
6) Acknowledging people to focus on their heath and
Immunity to fight against Covid-19.
a) Better immune system helps us to be safe and to recover
from Covid-19 virus by producing better antibodies which
could fight against the virus.
7) Taking into consideration the prevention of corona virus
and promotes the mechanism of Wash ( Water, Sanitation
and Hygiene)
a) Safely managed water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) services are an
essential part of preventing and protecting human health during infectious
disease outbreaks, including the current COVID-19 pandemic.

b) Good WASH and waste management practices, that are consistently


applied, serve as barriers to human-to-human transmission of the COVID-
19 virus in homes, communities, health care facilities, schools, and other
public spaces.

8) Demands for the complete restriction on black


marketing of medical equipments ( face masks, face
shields, goggles, gloves, gowns and other supplies).
a) Due to the black marketing of medical equipments(face
masks, face shields, goggles, gloves, gowns and other supplies)
there is a shortage of these equipments in the market.
b) Because of this the prices of the equipments rise high due to
which only rich people are able to afford and poor people
usually suffer.
9) Implement national action plans by putting in place, according
to their specific contexts, comprehensive, proportionate, time-bound,
age- and disability-sensitive and gender-responsive measures across
government sectors against COVID-19, ensuring respect for human
rights and fundamental freedoms and paying particular attention to
the needs of people in vulnerable situations, promoting social
cohesion, taking necessary measures to ensure social protection,

protection from financial hardship and preventing insecurity,


violence, discrimination, stigmatization and marginalization.
10) Ensure that restrictions on the movement of persons and of
medical equipment and medicines in the context of COVID-19 are
temporary and specific and include exceptions for the movement of
humanitarian and health workers, including community health
workers to fulfil their duties and for the transfer of equipment and
medicines required by humanitarian organizations for their
operations.
11) Take measures to support access to safe water, sanitation and
hygiene, and infection prevention and control, ensuring that
adequate attention is placed on the promotion of personal hygienic
measures in all settings, including humanitarian settings and
particularly in health facilities.
12) Maintain the continued functioning of the health system in all
relevant aspects, in accordance with national context and priorities,
necessary for an effective public health response to the COVID-19
pandemic and other ongoing epidemics, and the uninterrupted and
safe provision of population and individual level services, for, among
others, communicable diseases, including by undisrupted vaccination
programs , neglected tropical diseases, noncommunicable diseases,
mental health, mother and child health and sexual and reproductive
health and promote improved nutrition for women and children,
recognizing in this regard the importance of increased domestic
financing and development assistance where needed in the context of
achieving UHC.
13) Provide the population with reliable and comprehensive
information on COVID-19 and the measures taken by authorities in
response to the pandemic, and take measures to counter
misinformation and disinformation and as well as malicious cyber
activities.
14) Provide access to safe testing, treatment, and palliative care for
COVID-19, paying particular attention to the protection of those
with pre-existing health conditions, older persons, and other people
at risk, in particular health professionals, health workers and other
relevant frontline workers.
15) Provide health professionals, health workers and other relevant
frontline workers exposed to COVID-19, access to personal
protective equipment and other necessary commodities and training,
including in the provision of psychosocial support, taking measures
for their protection at work, facilitating their access to work, and the
provision of their adequate remuneration, consider also the
introduction of task-sharing and task-shifting to optimize the use of
resources.
