The world just hit a sobering pandemic milestone: 100 million confirmed COVID-19 cases globally, with deaths surpassing 2 million. 💔 Over a year after the first lockdowns, nations continue battling surges and new variants like players stuck on pandemic hard mode.
From overwhelmed hospitals to delayed vaccine rollouts, countries face fresh challenges despite evolving containment strategies. The WHO warns this “critical juncture” demands global cooperation. “We’re all in this together – but not all experiencing it equally,” said WHO chief Dr. Tedros last week.
By the numbers:
🌐 100M+ confirmed cases worldwide
⚰️ 2M+ recorded deaths
📈 Daily infections still rising in 79 countries
While vaccination campaigns bring hope, experts emphasize masks and distancing remain crucial weapons. As one epidemiologist tweeted: “Viruses don’t care about pandemic fatigue. Stay sharp, fam.” 👩⚕️💪
