USA, India and Brazil continue to have the most number of cases reported daily, with India overtaking Brazil as the country with the second most number of cases in the world. The World Health Organisation (WHO), however, has warned that premature lifting of the restrictions could lead to a potential resurgence of the COVID-19. Daily updates on COVID-19 are available on CIDER’s blog at https://blog.nus.edu.sg/nuscider/. Polio, As of Aug. 25, the World Health Organization African Region has been certified free of the wild poliovirus. As of today, there are only two countries remaining that are still polio-endemic: Afghanistan and Pakistan. The polio eradication efforts in Pakistan and Afghanistan were temporarily paused earlier this year to avoid spreading COVID-19 in house-to-house vaccination campaigns, and there are fears of a resurgence in these countries. 2 | P a g e Centre for infectious di sease epidemiology and research ` th Saw Swee Hock School of Public Health Reported: 10 October 2020 i.

We rely on our supply chain partners to commit and adopt MEC's social compliance policy and supplier code of conduct. To drive meaningful change, we understand that we need to work with our supply chain partners to meet the requirements set out in our policies. Listed product manufacturers (tier 1) represent 100% of our finished good supply chain. In an effort to continue MEC’s journey into supply chain transparency, MEC has added our Tier 1 subcontractor supply chain and our material supply-chain partners to the supplier disclosure list in September 2017. It is our commitment to our members that we will continue to disclose our supply chain partners; working to expand this list to include trims, component and subcomponent manufacturers.
