Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) Situation Report – 174 Data as received by WHO from national authorities by 10:00 CEST, 12 July 2020

Highlights

WHO has published an Emergency Global Supply Chain Sysetem (COVID-19) catalogue listing all medical devices, including personal protective equipment, medical equipment, medical consumables, single use devices, and laboratory and test-related devices, which may be requested through the COVID-19 Supply Portal. The catalogue represents an initial prioritized selection of items and are subject to constant reviw.

WHO surveyed networks of laboratories to map out global animal laboratory capacity around the world to potentially help with accelerating vaccine and therapeutic evaluation.

The WHO Regional Office for Africa calls for equitable access to future COVID-19 vaccines in Africa, as researchers around the world race to find effective protection against the virus.

Case definitions WHO periodically updates the Global Surveillance for human infection with coronavirus disease (COVID-19) document which includes surveillance definitions.

Definition of COVID-19 death

A COVID-19 death is defined for surveillance purposes as a death resulting from a clinically compatible illness in a probable or confirmed COVID-19 case, unless there is a clear alternative cause of death that cannot be related to COVID-19 disease (e.g. trauma). There should be no period of complete recovery between the illness and death.

Further guidance for certification and classification (coding) of COVID-19 as cause of death is available here and here.

Annex 1: Data, table and figure notes

Caution must be taken when interpreting all data presented. Differences are to be expected between

information products published by WHO, national public health authorities, and other sources using different

inclusion criteria and different data cut-off times. While steps are taken to ensure accuracy and reliability, all

data are subject to continuous verification and change. Case detection, definitions, testing strategies,

reporting practice, and lag times differ between countries/territories/areas. These factors, amongst others,

influence the counts presented, with variable underestimation of true case and death counts, and variable

delays to reflecting these data at global level.

The designations employed, and the presentation of these materials do not imply the expression of any

opinion whatsoever on the part of WHO concerning the legal status of any country, territory or area or of its

authorities, or concerning the delimitation of its frontiers or boundaries. Dotted and dashed lines on maps

represent approximate border lines for which there may not yet be full agreement. Countries, territories and

areas are arranged under the administering WHO region.

The mention of specific companies or of certain manufacturers’ products does not imply that they are

endorsed or recommended by WHO in preference to others of a similar nature that are not mentioned.

Errors and omissions excepted, the names of proprietary products are distinguished by initial capital letters.

[1] All references to Kosovo should be understood to be in the context of the United Nations Security Council

resolution 1244 (1999). In the map, number of cases of Serbia and Kosovo (UNSCR 1244, 1999) have been

aggregated for visualization purposes.

Counts reflect laboratory-confirmed cases and deaths, based on WHO case definitions, unless stated

otherwise (see Country, territory, or area-specific updates and errata), and include both domestic and

repatriated cases.

Other*: includes cases reported from international conveyances.

Due to the recent trend of countries conducting data reconciliation exercises which remove large numbers of

cases or deaths from their total counts, WHO will now display such data as negative numbers in the “new

cases” / “new deaths” columns as appropriate. This will aid readers in identifying when such adjustments

occur. When additional details become available that allow the subtractions to be suitably apportioned to

previous days, graphics will be updated accordingly. Prior situation reports will not be edited; see

covid19.who.int for the most up-to-date data.

Additional table notes

i Transmission classification is based on a process of country/territory/area self-reporting. Classifications are

reviewed on a weekly basis and may be revised as new information becomes available. Differing degrees of

transmission may be present within countries/territories/areas; classification is based on the highest

category reported within a country/territory/area. Categories:

• No cases: with no confirmed cases

• Sporadic cases: with one or more cases, imported or locally detected

• Clusters of cases: experiencing cases, clustered in time, geographic location and/or by common

exposures

• Community transmission: experiencing larger outbreaks of local transmission defined through an

assessment of factors including, but not limited to: large numbers of cases not linkable to transmission

chains; large numbers of cases from sentinel lab surveillance; and/or multiple unrelated clusters in

several areas of the country/territory/area

• Pending: transmission classification has not been reported to WHO

ii “Territories” include territories, areas, overseas dependencies and other jurisdictions of similar status.
