Japan, Singapore, South Korea were affected by a second wave of the Covid-19 imported by visitors from abroad. The Asian countries were the first to catch the virus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, the World Health Organization (WHO) is optimistic the second wave may not be as bad. Spanish public health director at the World Health Organization, Mar\u00eda Neira, said on Monday, 25 May 2020 in an interview with the Catalan radio RAC-1, spoke of forecasting models with many possibilities, from new punctual outbreaks to a new important wave. She said researchers have been increasingly discarding the latter possibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are much better prepared in every way,\u201d said the Spanish doctor, who recommended \u201ca lot of prudence and common sense\u201d at a \u201cvery critical\u201d stage of the Covid-19 pandemic. She asked the population not to \u201cgo into paranoia or become relaxed too much and instead to learn to live with infectious diseases.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Likewise, in the United States, experts are divided. Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, forecasts a second wave in the fall is \u201cinevitable.\u201d Yet others are hopeful the United States will be able to avoid a second spike if residents are careful to maintain health safety guidelines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
