THE coronavirus crisis always was a global crisis and remains so. It is comforting to believe that we are immune or at least shielded from these global trends — but that would be both dangerous and foolish.
The pandemic has spread globally and there is no reason to assume that we will escape further risks because we currently seem to be over the worst.
The global trend is clear. According to the latest World Health Organisation (WHO) report there were well over 5,500 deaths in a single day and well over 200,000 new cases. These are new highs and there are a now a series of regional epicentres of the pandemic. These include the mid-Western, Southern and West Coast US, a large number of countries in Latin America as well as a continuous rise in cases in a number of South Asian countries.
