When all is said and done a serious re-evaluation of the WHO’s mission and actions during this pandemic needs to take place. When the world needed them most, they failed spectacularly.

In mid January they said that China had no evidence of human to human transmission despite Taiwan telling them otherwise, probably due to political reasons. They refused to declare a pandemic weeks after it was clear it was one, and even now they still insist on ignoring the data we have around masks.
