Dr Mike Ryan, Executive Director of the World Health Organization’s Emergencies Programme

🎙️ “This isn’t just an issue of young people passing on the virus, it’s also about young people losing capacity to exercise & be your normal self”

– @DrMikeRyan of @WHO tells #TodayCB even moderate Covid-19 cases are struggling to recover, & we’re seeing more long-term impacts

Speaking on RTÉ’s Today with Claire Byrne, Dr Ryan said that although younger people may suffer a less severe version of the disease, it is not guaranteed that this will be the case and that there is always the risk of passing it to older populations.

If the disease is passed onto older generations again, he said, the hospitals will refill and “this is not something we want to see”.

Dr Ryan said it is not known yet about what kind of protection people will have if they contract the disease.

Anyone?
