Addressing the press meeting on Tuesday, a WHO spokesperson, Margaret Harris, said: “Over 85 percent of worldwide cases are from Europe and the United States… And 40 percent of those are from the United States.”
“The United States has a very large outbreak that is increasing in intensity… So it does have the potential to become the new epicenter of COVID-19,” she said.
“But we cannot say that is the case yet but it does have the potential,” she added.
