In a videotaped press statement, Dr. Hans Kluge called on all Europeans to stay united and vigilant. He called for a three-pronged approach to fighting the novel coronavirus: “First, strengthen and protect health workers and health services at all levels. Second, cut off the pandemic at its source and separate healthy people from suspected or probable cases. Third, maintain command-and-control structures and functions, communicate continuously, and engage communities to achieve collective buy-in to current and possible future measures."
