Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) Situation Report – 202 Data as received by WHO from national authorities by 10:00 CEST, 9 August 2020

Highlights “Now it’s time to work together. Now it’s time to fight the virus”, said Dr Tedros in a media briefing on Thursday last week.

Dr Mike Ryan, Executive Director, WHO Health Emergencies Programme also said that “…we have to create a new partnership. A new deal between government services and community action. Communities’ individuals have to be empowered, educated. They have to want to participate.”

Definition of COVID-19 death

A 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). In the map, number of cases of Serbia

and Kosovo (UNSCR 1244, 1999) have been aggregated for visualization purposes.

*A small number of countries/territories/areas report combined probable and laboratory-

confirmed cases; efforts are underway to identify these for notation in the data

table.†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. 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;

• 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.
