Coronavirus disease (COVID-19)

Situation Report – 142 Data as received by WHO from national authorities by 10:00 CEST, 10 June 2020

Highlights

The WHO Regional Office for the Americas will support the Ministry of Health and the Advisory Team

of the Venezuelan National Assembly to seek funds for COVID-19 Response. “COVID-19 has been a

problem for most countries, but this pandemic also provides a good opportunity to pursue health as a

bridge to peace", said Dr Carissa F. Etienne, the Regional Director for the Americas.

Dr Carissa F. Etienne has also noted, “In South America, our response to the pandemic will be

impacted by the arrival of winter, while hurricane season will complicate our efforts in North and

Central America, and especially in the Caribbean”. The region needs to prepare to combat the effects

of winter and hurricanes on COVID-19 response.

The WHO Regional Office for Europe is coordinating a large-scale COVID-19 response operation in

Tajikistan, involving emergency medical teams (EMTs) and mobile laboratories. As part of the

operation, WHO will mobilize medical and laboratory specialists from Germany, the Russian

Federation and the United Kingdom, who will be deployed to Tajikistan during the coming weeks,

upon request from the government.

In today’s ‘Subject in Focus’ below, we provide an update on operations support and logistics

supplies.

Personal protective equipment supplies To date, WHO has shipped more than 5 million items of personal protective equipment (PPE) to 112 countries.

With South America and the Caribbean emerging as new centres of the COVID-19 pandemic, WHO is prioritizing shipping a massive volume of PPE (6 000 m3) to its Regional Office for the Americas for distribution to countries in the region. About 24.7 million PPE items procured by WHO are being allocated for shipment to the Region, along with 26 million medical masks and over 420 000 N95 respirators donated by the Jack Ma Foundation.

Definition of COVID-19 death

COVID-19 death is defined for surveillance purposes as a death resulting from a clinically

compatible illness in a probable or confirmed COVID-19 case, unless there is a clear alternative

cause of death that cannot be related to COVID-19 disease (e.g. trauma). There should be no

period of complete recovery between the illness and death.

Further guidance for certification and classification (coding) of COVID-19 as cause of death is available here and here.

Annex 1: Data, table and figure notes

Caution must be taken when interpreting all data presented. Differences are to be expected

between information products published by WHO, national public health authorities, and other

sources using different inclusion criteria and different data cut-off times. While steps are taken

to ensure accuracy and reliability, all data are subject to continuous verification and change.

Case detection, definitions, testing strategies, reporting practice, and lag times differ between

countries/territories/areas. These factors, amongst others, influence the counts presented,

with variable underestimation of true case and death counts, and variable delays to reflecting

these data at global level.

The designations employed, and the presentation of these materials do not imply the

expression of any opinion whatsoever on the part of WHO concerning the legal status of any

country, territory or area or of its authorities, or concerning the delimitation of its frontiers or

boundaries. Dotted and dashed lines on maps represent approximate border lines for which

there may not yet be full agreement. Countries, territories and areas are arranged under the

administering WHO region.

The mention of specific companies or of certain manufacturers’ products does not imply that

they are endorsed or recommended by WHO in preference to others of a similar nature that

are not mentioned. Errors and omissions excepted, the names of proprietary products are

distinguished by initial capital letters.

[1] All references to Kosovo should be understood to be in the context of the United Nations

Security Council resolution 1244 (1999).

Counts reflect laboratory-confirmed cases and deaths, based on WHO case

definitions, unless stated otherwise (see Country, territory, or area-specific updates and

errata), and include both domestic and repatriated cases.

Other*: includes cases reported from international conveyances.

Due to the recent trend of countries conducting data reconciliation exercises which remove

large numbers of cases or deaths from their total counts, WHO will now display such data as

negative numbers in the “new cases” / “new deaths” columns as appropriate. This will aid

readers in identifying when such adjustments occur. When additional details become available

that allow the subtractions to be suitably apportioned to previous days, graphics will be

updated accordingly. Prior situation reports will not be edited; see covid19.who.int for the

most up-to-date data.

Additional table notes

i Transmission classification is based on a process of country/territory/area self-reporting.

Classifications are reviewed on a weekly basis and may be revised as new information

becomes available. and. Differing degrees of transmission may be present within

countries/territories/areas; classification is based on the highest category reported within a

country/territory/area. Categories:

• No cases: with no confirmed cases

• Sporadic cases: with one or more cases, imported or locally detected

Page 16: Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) · 6/10/2020  · With South America and the Caribbean emerging as new centres of the COVID-19 pandemic, WHO is prioritizing shipping a massive volume

• Clusters of cases: experiencing cases, clustered in time, geographic location and/or by

common exposures

• Community transmission: experiencing larger outbreaks of local transmission defined

through an assessment of factors including, but not limited to: large numbers of cases not

linkable to transmission chains; large numbers of cases from sentinel lab surveillance;

and/or multiple unrelated clusters in several areas of the country/territory/area

• Pending: transmission classification has not been reported to WHO

ii “Territories” include territories, areas, overseas dependencies and other jurisdictions of

similar status.

Country, territory, or area-specific updates and errata

• Update 10 June 2020, Brazil: To align with the cumulative numbers of cases and

deaths reported by national authorities, WHO is reporting the numbers of cases and

deaths, available here: https://covid.saude.gov.br/

• Erratum 10 June 2020, French Guiana, Isle of Man, Jersey, Kosovo, and Puerto

Rico: Due to a transcription error, data for French Guiana and Jersey were duplicated;

data for Kosovo were incorrect; data for Puerto Rico and Isle of Man were missing. Data

have been corrected.
