So it seems that the WHO is to blame for most of this pandemic along with China.

That has been known for a long time.

You guys must tell me the name of your drug dealer [;)]

As credible as that Chinese official that accused US Army personnel to plant the virus back in autumn... theory that dozens -if not hundreds- of millions of Chinese do believe so pay attention [:D]

The objective fact: Asian societies 5 - 0 The West. So you need a scapegoat to hide your own utter incompetence eh? Fix the problem and shut up. If you can...

The funny thing is those who blame China (and now WHO rofl) are the same ones that were saying 3, 2 months ago "nah, just a flu, the Chinese are exaggerating".

I don't need the KGB, CIA or Mossad [:'(] The info was out there, public and free. I was paying attention and saw people dropping dead in Wuhan streets (then Iran). The empty ghost towns too.

What part did you not understand exactly???

The World Health Organization (WHO) is now haunted by a tweet it sent earlier this year when it cited Chinese health officials who claimed there had been no human transmissions of the novel coronavirus within the country yet.


The Jan. 14 tweet came less than two months before WHO declared COVID-19 to be a global pandemic.

"Preliminary investigations conducted by the Chinese authorities have found no clear evidence of human-to-human transmission of the novel #coronavirus (2019-nCoV) identified in #Wuhan, #China," the organization had said.

I'd post more but the truth seems to be something you don't bother with. [8|]

It was happening over 5 months ago.

Who is your drug dealer and what drug uses you?

The KGB is dead, or haven't you heard about that yet?

Has it ocurred to you that maybe they still didn't know this new virus? It's not like you find a Spanish Flu thing every week [;)]

And by the way the SF originated in Kansas. Did you know it? Should the world blame the US then? [;)]

And to hell with your conspiracies, especially when you're the "this is a flu brigade". You accuse the Chinese of doing what your lot systematically did eh

re the KGB, I don't know what's the modern equivalent (FSB?), not really interested about it.

You were in Wuhan seeing people dropping dead in the streets? Did you contact the authorities? Then you went to Iran and saw people dropping dead in the streets? Did you contact the authorities there?

Or were you the one spreading it?

I'm talking about Covid-19 [;)] To compare it with something, it has to be the Spanish Flu: a "once-in-a-century pathogen" [;)] You expect too much methinks. It took some time to understand this was not a flu or pneumonia.

I am totally disorganized.[:(]
I had everything planned.[8D]
I quietly followed the path of my AmeRico way of Life when the pandemic arrived.[X(]
Before I died, I wanted to get to know democracy by going to the United States or Canada.[:)]
Now, I only dream of civilization, you know the one that provides the masks![;)]
I don't know which place to choose to realize my new Asian Dream, Korea, Taiwan, Japan or China?[&:]
And Vietnam, there is still room in Vietnam?
