Tedros seemed to address fatigue, both in people and in governments, and stated that the virus movement is also the result of a "lack of global solidarity".

The Tedros pointed to countries that actually flatten the curve as examples that the rest of the world should follow. South Korea slowed spread by aggressive tests and contact contacts, even by non-traditional methods, such as the revision of credit card statements.
