More than 82,000 people have died of Covid-19 so far, while 1.4 million have got the virus.

Tedros Ghebreyesus, director-general of the World Health Organisation, is confident a vaccine will be developed soon.

"In less than 100 days since WHO was notified about the new Coronavirus, research has accelerated at incredible speed.

"More than 70 countries have joined the WHO solidarity trial to accelerated the search for an effective treatment."
