I had the privilege to work closely with @DrTedros on various occasions and can attest to his dedication, principled leadership and hard-work. His vision and commitment to serve humanity equally is what led him to @WHO and the world stage. Let’s give him space to do his job.

Merci au camarade gazouilleur qui fait remarquer, à propos de la pandémie coronesque, que la locution "distanciation sociale" est une traduction un peu trop rapide de l'anglais... "Distance sanitaire" serait bien plus juste.
