The World Health Organisation chief has warned "the worst is yet ahead of us" in the coronavirus outbreak as many countries ease restrictive measures aimed at reducing its spread.
WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus did not specify why he believes the outbreak that has infected some 2.5 million people and killed more than 166,000 could get worse.
"Trust us. The worst is yet ahead of us," Dr Tedros told reporters from WHO headquarters in Geneva on Monday.
