The World Health Organization, WHO, has issued a warning to nations on the reopening of schools, in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic.

Dr Michael Ryan, a senior WHO officer said reopening of schools should be based on data-driven COVID-19 public health strategies and not just political.

The Executive Director of the WHO Health Emergencies Program expressed this at an instructions in Geneva, Switzerland, NAN reports.

Ryan stated:

“We can’t play Whack-a-mole. We need to be able to walk and chew gum at the same time”.

He lamented that the issue of school reopening had become a “political football.”

According to Ryan, such was not fair on children.

“Decisions must be made on data, and an understanding of the risks.

“There needs to be a sustained commitment on suppressing the virus. If we can suppress it, then, schools can open safely.”
