WHO Spread False Chinese Government Propaganda: Coronavirus Not Contagious Among Humans
The World Health Organization (WHO) praised
Beijing’s response to the novel coronavirus in line with Chinese
propagandists, at one point denying human-to-human transmission was
taking place as the deadly and highly contagious disease spiraled out of
control inside the communist country.
WHO Twitter messages from January and February show that the United Nations body
was spreading Chinese propaganda. Health officials detected the first case of the coronavirus (COVID-19) on November 17 in Wuhan, China.
Communist officials in China hid the extent of the coronavirus outbreak during the early stages of the epidemic, jailing and silencing whistleblowers, a move that allowed the virus to gain a firm hold. The ruling communist party, however, has hailed the recent slowdown of the outbreak as a sign of the superiority of its authoritarian political system.
A study published earlier this month by the University of Southampton, determined that China could have prevented 95 percent of the coronavirus infections plaguing the globe if Beijing had listened to the doctor whistleblowers in Wuhan about the seriousness of the disease instead of silencing and punishing them for speaking out.
“At critical moments, officials chose to put secrecy and order ahead of openly confronting the growing crisis to avoid public alarm and political embarrassment,” the New York Times acknowledged in early February. China has refused to apologize for its mishandling of the outbreak during its initial phase.
Meanwhile, it appears that the WHO has been covering for the ruling communist party in China.
On January 14, the day before the first case to reach the United States reportedly flew from Wuhan to Seattle, Washington, the WHO denied that the disease was spreading through human-to-human transmission.
“Preliminary investigations conducted by the Chinese authorities have found no clear evidence of human-to-human transmission of the novel [coronavirus] identified in [Wuhan],” the WHO wrote on Twitter.

"It’s hard to believe that just 2 months ago, the #2019nCoV virus was unknown to us. We have already learned so much about it. We know its DNA; it can be transmitted from person to person; those most at risk are older people & those with underlying health conditions"-@DrTedros— World Health Organization (WHO) (@WHO) February 6, 2020
