WHO Director-General: Some countries 'level of political commitment' doesn't match threat faced

Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus ✔@DrTedros

Leadership from the top: We call on country leaders to mobilize their plans, coordinating every part of government, not just the health ministry – security, diplomacy, finance, commerce, transport, trade, information and more – the whole government should be involved. #COVID19

We're concerned that in some countries the level of political commitment & the actions that demonstrate that commitment don't match the level of the threat we all face. This is
NOT a drill
NOT the time to give up
NOT a time for excuses
This is a time for pulling out all the stops

I’ll feel a lot better with grown ups back in charge of responding to this. I know people on the front lines are doing their best, but the administration is just so incompetent and bad-news-averse
