World health Organisation refuses to name staff who blocked early COVID-19 travel bans
Sky News ^ | April 8, 2020 | EXCLUSIVE: Digital Editor Jack Houghton

Posted on 04/08/2020 8:23:35 AM PDT by maggief

The World Health Organisation has refused to release the names of doctors who blocked an early bid to declare coronavirus a global health emergency.

A Sky News Australia investigation has revealed a group of WHO doctors debated whether to declare the deadly coronavirus global emergency in late January but those who wanted to implement strict travel restrictions were outvoted and instead, the body released a glowing statement praising China, followed by a recommendation for countries not to ban travel to China.

“The Committee does not recommend any travel or trade restriction based on the current information available,” the WHO wrote on January 30 at a time when confirmed cases had already reached 12,167 in China and the virus had killed 170 people.

Two days prior to that meeting in Geneva, WHO general manager Tedros Adhanom was photographed happily shaking hands with China’s leader Xi Jinping.

Special adviser to the director-general of the World Health Organization (WHO), Dr Ezekiel Emanuel

https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/11055506/world-health-organization-official-lashes-out-at-donald-trumps-incoherent-ignorant-coronavirus-response/

A TOP WHO adviser has claimed Trump made “ignorant” and “incoherent” remarks during a news conference detailing the administration’s response to the coronavirus outbreak.

Special adviser to the director-general of the World Health Organization (WHO), Dr Ezekiel Emanuel - a key figure in the creation of the controversial ObamaCare program, claimed on left-leaning MSNBC’s Hardball that Trump’s comments indicated how little the president knew about public health.

Ezekiel Emanuel, MD, PhD, Leave of Absence as Chair of Medical Ethics & Health Policy
May 29, 2019

During his leave of absence from his chair role, Zeke will work with colleagues to launch the Health Transformation Institute (HTI) in the department, a new initiative aimed at increasing the value of the U.S. healthcare system through new innovations designed to improve quality, affordability and the patient experience.

Zeke will also be taking on a role as Senior Advisor to the Director General of the World Health Organization, an opportunity in which he will provide direction for the organization’s Universal Health Care initiative, particularly in the areas of screening and care for cancer in low-income countries and its medical ethics program. He will also help devise strategy for the WHO Academy, a training initiative for 10 million public health professionals across the globe.

Fire the entire top “leadership” of the WHO ... they’re all corrupt incompetents

WHO sounds more like a high-living Club Med than an objective organization concerned with public health

What little faith I had in WHO and the CDC is now in the negatives. Worthless organizations.

Elimnate funding, the take a REALLY HARD look at the CDC who bungled everything including testing and was busy holding transgender beauty contests and trying to turn gun-violence into a health issue for the left.

Next, crush the FDA/Big Pharma relationship, and cut time to market big time on new drugs

More than worthless: harm inducing through argument from authority.

“The Commie Committee does not recommend any travel or trade restriction based on the current information available,”. There, fixed it.

What everyone needs to understand, the WHO are first and foremost....GLOBALIST.

Once you realize that, everything they do starts to make sense.

They need to be tried for crimes against humanity and hung in the public square.

“Doesn’t matter, Trump will deal with the entire sordid organization.”

When this is all over I think other countries are going to deal with WHO and China also.

Especially if deaths rise.
