The World Health Organization has countered claims of 5G spreading Coronavirus in countries around the world.

WHO in a statement released on Friday, April 10, stated that virus is being transmitted through respiratory droplets of an infected person who coughs, sneezes or speaks and cannot travel on radio waves/mobile networks.

The International health organization also disclosed that Coronavirus is spreading in many countries that do not have 5G mobile networks.

The statement partly reads;

“People can also be infected by touching a contaminated surface and then their eyes, mouth or nose. 

“Most  COVID-19  infected persons can recover and eliminate the virus from their bodies.

“If you are infected by the disease, make sure you treat your symptoms.

“If you have cough, fever, and difficulty breathing, seek medical care early, but call your health facility by telephone first.

“Most patients recover thanks to supportive care. 

You can be infected with  COVID-19, no matter how sunny or hot the weather is. Countries with hot weather have reported cases of COVID-19.”
