President Donald Trump has served notice to the World Health Organization that the U.S. will no longer take part in its kleptocratic incompetence and its cozying up to dictators and tyrants, including its biggest influencer, China.
It's now common knowledge that, at China's urging and prodding, WHO Director General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, underplayed the initial outbreak of the virus.
WHO had long maintained China had informed it of the disease's sudden appearance in Wuhan.
On June 29, WHO changed its timeline of events surrounding the outbreak, reflecting that in fact China hadn't told it at all.
As the revised text in WHO's timeline notes, "WHO's Country Office in the People's Republic of China picked up a media statement by the Wuhan Municipal Health Commission from their website on cases of 'viral pneumonia' in Wuhan, People's Republic of China."
Why did WHO's Tedros pretend China had informed the organization when it didn't?
Tedros tacitly allowed China to keep Taiwan out of WHO, another favor for Chinese premier Xi Jinping.
