He believes the world has the technology, and the knowledge to stop it, if there is both national solidarity and global solidarity.

Coronavirus has so far executed 800,000 people. Almost 23 million contaminations have been recorded but the number of people who have really had the infection is believed to be a lot higher because of lacking testing and asymptomatic cases.
