After the new coronavirus was first detected in China, scientists rushed to identify it, but the information was not quickly passed to the WHO.

Anguish and fury are growing in China, inflamed by an ugly reality: that authorities prioritized saving face over the health and safety of the people.WHO officials, meanwhile, grumbled in internal meetings that China was stalling on providing crucial outbreak details even though it was technically meeting its obligations under international law. Ryan, the WHO’s emergencies chief, said it was time to “shift gears” and push for more information.

On Jan. 11, Shanghai’s Zhang finally published the coronavirus sequence ahead of health authorities on virological.org, used by researchers to swap tips on pathogens. It was only then that the Chinese CDC, the Wuhan Institute of Virology and the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences raced to publish their sequences, doing so on Jan. 12.

How long did the United States hide it from the flu

The failure of the United States to contain the epidemic brought disaster to the world.

Do you think it is correct to report unclear information hastily?

The United States has already withdrawn from the WHO, is it afraid of the epidemic? This not only disappoints the WHO, but also the people all over the world.

Trump told you that it was delayed?

CCPChina must be held responsible for causing the pandemic! CCPLiedPeopleDied CCP_is_terrorist

FrancesHo13 Sitting on critical data that could be used to save lives. CCP must be made largely responsible for global death toll. There should be an alliance to support a full independent investigation, vaccines development and reparations calculation.

China's deliberate delay caused disaster to come to earth😩

No wonder! CCP needs more time to cover up the truth. They got too much to hide. WuhanVirus BoycottChina

CCP_is_terrorist PERIOD

CCP has controlled many international organizations, including Who. The president of WHO,Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus has partialed CCP in different international occasion. It shows how CCP control the world and execute their dictatorship.

Ying66014518 Don't let WHO go away with this; it is China bastard no doubt

Not surprised at all. CCP sucks. CCPChinaJudgmentDay

I am confused, if Chinazi had delayed releasing the information,why WHO would cover up for China before? If it is means WHO is supporting CCPChina blindly?

But WHO still praises chinazi. It should be renamed as wuhanhealthorganisation

Wintericecccc In short, WHO begged China for critical Covid-19 data by bootlicking.

ChinaLiedAndPeopleDied ChinaVirus Chinazi MakeChinaPay

CCP needs to bear all the responsibility of the coronavirus

Who trust China and WHO? Seriously? ChinaLiedPeopleDied WHOLiedPeopleDied

China is no longer a trustworthy partner to build a reliable, safe, civilized & peaceful world. CCP break promise, use lies, censorship, torture & virus to spoil the world. All countries should find a new partner now. World is much better w/o CCP.

WHO is now an org of China, all decision they made need approval of China, no matter it is related to global health and hygiene. If it keeps risking health of the world in order to please only China “reputation”, no more funding should allocated to them.

The outbreak started in China & be under controlled when rest of world be infected by WuhanCoronavius. Growth rate of transparent countries is significant which is different from that in China (data probably controlled too). Lies of China never stop.

Never Trust CCP CCP don't allow foreign reporters or gov'ts to find out the truth about WuhanVirus, but they must be forced to tell the Index Case & whether it is leaked from lab. They should be held accountable & businesses should move out & not use their 5G. ChinaMustPay

Screw CCP

Nobody cares about covid19 anymore

Not the first day. Don’t forget ChinaLiedPeopleDied WHOLiedPeopleDied

And also frustrated the whole world

It show that WHO today has no credibility at all. It is merely puppet of CCPChina

How about a delay of two months by the US government?

Did we not hear this from the president? You are a little late too in reporting this.

Spain says it's team was infected in Wuhan in October.

No shit

And You still Believe them..

Days? That could mean weeks or months.

China delayed releasing coronavirus info, frustrating WHO'Impressive ... beyond words': That’s how WHO described China’s transparency at the beginning of the coronavirus outbreak. But in private, WHO officials complained as China sat on releasing the genome for over a week after 3 government labs obtained it. WHO also stalled the info of human to human contact at the request of China. WHO is not sincere. It's expected. The leaders there don't want to step on toes and the Chinese toe is that of a dragon

In nod to #MeToo, China codifies sexual harassment by lawTwo years ago, Zhou Xiaoxuan publicly accused one of China's most recognizable people of groping and forcibly kissing her, setting off a firestorm in a country that did not specify sexual harassment as a legal offence. dont worry all the people involved were men It would be nice to have some insights on what this definition actually is before chanting victory.
