The illness has now been declared of Pandemic Level 6 proportions, i.e., as having reached peak levels of spread as per the WHO chart given below. How long this period will last is anybody's guess, but what is certain is that the above figures are bound to increase drastically. Among the WHO recommended action plans for this phase is the implementation of individual and societal measures, in raising awareness, reducing the spread, and eventually arresting the illness.
