The World Health Organization on Friday announced that COVID-19 is no longer a global emergency, marking a symbolic end to the pandemic, which has taken 7 million lives around the world. The move is deemed a natural one given the current stable situation.
"It's with great hope that I declare COVID-19 over as a global health emergency," WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said on Friday while noting that this "does not mean COVID-19 is over as a global health threat," as some regions, including Southeast Asia and the Middle East are seeing spikes in cases.

According to sources cited by Malay news portal Suara TV, Wan Nurzila was ‘dismissed’ following a crisis between several communication factions within the PM’s machinery which led “to the ineffectiveness of the Malaysia Madani campaign”.
“PM Anwar is now facing criticism from the people following the confusion of policies and an unconvincing approach in implementing policies for the country,” reported SuaraTV.
