Mindblown

Before people attack this decision as it being just Trump, just note, multiple countries are starting to question WHO.

The WHO is problematic in the sense that they have backed China, which is obviously lying about their numbers and China effectively tried to cover up this virus before it went global

BUT

Trump was praising the WHO back in February so :rip:

The WHO has been extremely problematic with the handling of COVID-19. They criticized Trump's China travel ban on Jan 31st, and advised other countries (Canada included) not to do the same. Furthermore, they delayed labeling the pandemic as such. 

Most notably (and what Trump is referring to), they supported the Chinese government's handling of the outbreak, despite the many whistleblowers (that the Chinese government silenced, and the WHO never questioned or took seriously).

Gaslighter.

I don't care what WHO has done. 

What matters is what Trump will do to end COVID-19 in the US. That's his mission. 

WHO is a UN agency that monitors the pandemic as whole. They aren't responsible for the trash response that Western countries have shown....

But we shouldn't lose sight of the fact that he's only doing this so he can throw the heat off himself :huntyga:

He botched this up royally and now he wants to use the WHO as a scapegoat.

Whimsical bitch

True BUT

When they put out stuff like this, it's very problematic. This was obviously a lie by the Chinese government.

But I can interpret this as WHO reporting what China reported. Whether or not that is true, WHO has no other way or verifying it. Again, China is completely irrelevant at this moment. The US is reaching 2000 deaths per death. Wisconsin is probably going to have an outbreak because of the primary today. Trump continues to lie. Etc. WHO is the last thing we need to be worried about right now. We need to prepare for the surge/peak around the country. Again, this is just gaslighting on Trump's part. No surprise.

WHO should have been more cautious with their statements and messaging. Had China been honest the response would have been quicker most likely.

I agree that the Western response was poor though.
