Nobody told me is just another lie
From the WaPo
More than a dozen U.S. researchers, physicians and public health experts, many of them from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, were working full time at the Geneva headquarters of the World Health Organization as the novel coronavirus emerged late last year and transmitted real-time information about its discovery and spread in China to the Trump administration, according to U.S. and international officials.
A number of CDC staff members are regularly detailed to work at the WHO in Geneva as part of a rotation that has operated for years. Senior Trump-appointed health officials also consulted regularly at the highest levels with the WHO as the crisis unfolded, the officials said.
The presence of so many U.S. officials undercuts President Trump’s assertion that the WHO’s failure to communicate the extent of the threat, born of a desire to protect China, is largely responsible for the rapid spread of the virus in the United States.

Did the WHO communicate the extent of the threat differently than the head of WHO did at the time Trump refers to? The head of the WHO was parroting China's version at that time that there was no evidence of human to human transmission and that the travel ban was not necessary, that it was alarmist and racist. The message was not one of urgency, but that the coronavirus was no more dangerous than the flu.
And the CDC, which requested it, was not allowed by China to go there and help to find out what exactly was happening. |

Pete likes certain timelines. Doubt that he'll like this one provided by the Hudson Institute. It shows China's duplicity in covering up its culpability in spreading the virus and The WHO's complicity in covering up for China. It's long, covering the period from mid November to mid April, listing about 80 dates involving significant information in each.
It substantiates what I said in the above post and shows how China along with its running mate WHO covered up what the rest of the world needed to know to stop the virus early on, thus being the real culprits in the spread of Covid-19 to the rest of the world.
Please read it. It's an easy bullet point layout so you don't have to read excessive verbiage and doesn't take much time or effort to get through. It's VERY enlightening.

Who did the Trump* administration appoint to the executive board of the WHO?
And why did Art of the Deal Trump* not pressure his good friend Xi for access?

Actually, this must be a pretty good thread--it sucked you in. And it even got you to read two of my posts in this thread alone--and respond to them. That's got to be your 6% quota for a while. |

seems this has been lost in the daily Trump rally
President Trump has removed the head of a group charged with overseeing the $2 trillion coronavirus package passed by Congress last month.
Fine has worked under both Republican and Democratic administrations, serving for more than a decade as the inspector general at the Department of Justice. He joined the Department of Defense's Office of Inspector General in 2015.
well see how long the new guy last or why the old guy was let go?

What is a liberal fool?
Exhibit A: Bitchslappedboy asking questions that get zero interest and then quoting the rhetorical bs he thinks is too challenging for anybody with enough common sense to show no interest.

Revenge is a dish best served cold.

Revenge implies you have been offended or scorned.

Old news. Everybody knows that Trump downplayed it, just as did the Dems and the press and the medical experts on our coronavirus response team, including Fauci and Birx. There was an admitted attempt to prevent a panic, while, in actuality, all was being done to try to keep the effects of the virus contained as much as possible.
Fauci has publicly stated he couldn't imagine seeing anyone doing more than the coronavirus response team that Trump created. And that, during those months, Trump did everything that Fauci asked him, . |
