description | The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic has resulted in significant global mortality and morbidity affecting millions of lives. As healthcare authorities worldwide are still paying substantial attention to COVID‐19, other diseases continue to cause more deaths than COVID‐19. The decreasing number of COVID‐19 cases and deaths indicates that the pandemic is close to the end. For effective pandemic management, healthcare facilities worldwide have established COVID‐19 units and testing facilities, instituting infection prevention and control measures, and employing telehealth services. Healthcare professionals have identified some promising treatments for COVID‐19; also, mass vaccinations have improved patient outcomes. Instead of COVID‐19 as a pandemic, it is time to pay more attention to other diseases to lessen their impact on public health. Therefore, the World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the end of the pandemic phase of COVID‐19 considering the current COVID‐19 situation and our preparedness, past pandemic experience, and long pandemic impact on social and economic life on May 5, 2023. In this article, we briefly discussed the present challenges due to COVID‐19, necessary precautions, and future directions to return to life as before COVID‐19. |
