The World Health Organization (WHO) has warned that "remdesivir" should not be used to treat Coronavirus patients in hospitals.

According to the update, published in the medical journal the BMJ on Thursday, the organization said that there is no significant effect of "remdesivir" on the risk of dying from Covid-19 or needing mechanical ventilation.

Earlier, the organization revealed that the distribution of the emerging coronavirus vaccine "Covid-19" could be delayed due to some technical measures.

The director of the World Health Organization in Europe, Hans Kluge, said that a person dies every seventeen seconds on the continent from the Coronavirus epidemic.
