WHO updates COVID-19 guidelines on masks, treatments and patient care

The update is part of a continuous process of reviewing such materials, working with guideline development groups composed of independent, international experts.

@rchusid I wonder if this will have any effect in the Finnish guidelines, which have entirely given up on both masking, and distributing vaccines to the entire population. They only recently decided to release the vaccine to the private sector, so now unless you are an elderly person, or in a high risk group, you will have to pay to get vaccinated
