It is one of only two countries that have not yet administered vaccines to the population
North Korea declared a state of “maximum emergency” on Thursday after acknowledging the first outbreak of Covid-19, nearly two and a half years after the global pandemic began.
Leader Kim Jong Un has taken “maximum” measures against the coronavirus after the omicron variant was discovered in the country’s capital, Pyongyang, KNCA news agency reported. Likewise, Kim has emphasized that “thanks to the high political awareness of the people, the country will surely overcome the emergency” in the first outbreak since North Korea closed its borders in early 2020.
The North Korean country has taken measures to allow the country’s various sectors to adjust their work plans “in accordance with the operation of the maximum emergency anti-epidemic system”. The World Health Organization (WHO) warned that North Korea is one of only two countries that has not yet administered vaccines to its population.
