The UN secretary-general Antonio Guterres today said that the Coronavirus outbreak poses a very dangerous situation for the world, however, it is not out of control.

Antonio Guterres said, the risks are enormous and we need to be prepared worldwide for that. He said, the greatest worry was the spread of the virus to areas with less capacity in their health service, particularly some African countries.

Egypt recently reported its first case of the virus, raising fears of its spread to the African continent.

Earlier, The United States, evacuated around 300 Americans yesterday including more than a dozen who had tested positive.
