So much for transparency Dr Tedros

I was surprised, puzzled and intrigued that you replied to my Twitter request for a questioning section on April 21st 2020 at 12.52 am (IST).

You see my analysis into your character, your past and your links with questionable people and nations revealed to me that you are a man with no integrity, no values and devoid of morality.

I was shocked that you stated in the tweet about WHO’S transparency:

“Ok. Anytime. @WHO is transparent. I would be happy to get you any information you need”.

The World Health Organisation (WHO) according to your claim on Twitter is a transparent organisation.

Yet the world has been exposed to the lies and dangerous games of WHO.

Does WHO work for China or for the World?

On January 14th 2020, in a Tweet at 4.48 pm on social media platform Twitter, W.H.O stated, “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 question that needs to be asked is on what grounds did WHO arrive at a conclusion that the novel coronavirus had no clear evidence of human-to-human transmission. Did WHO conduct any tests? If so will WHO make the details of those tests public?

WHO did not conduct any tests on the coronavirus itself to arrive at its conclusion that there was no clear evidence of human-to-human transmission.

WHO relied on information from Chinese health authorities who themselves have been accused of hiding facts about the outbreak of the coronavirus that has now led to a global pandemic.

On March 9th 2020, WHO Tweeted the following contrary to its initial assessment based on the preliminary investigations by the Chinese authorities:

“Now that the #coronavirus has a foothold in so many countries, the threat of a pandemic has become very real.

But it would be the first pandemic in history that could be controlled.

The bottom line is: we are not at the mercy of this virus”-@DrTedros #COVID19”

It was followed with another Tweet:

“Over the weekend we crossed 100,000 reported cases of #COVID19 in 100 countries.

It’s certainly troubling that so many people & countries have been affected, so quickly” @DrTedros #coronavirus

So much for transparency Dr Tedros!

Why did WHO delay on declaring the coronavirus outbreak as a PHEIC?

On January 23, the WHO’s emergency committee was divided on whether to declare the coronavirus outbreak as public health emergency of international concern (PHEIC). You had the final authority Dr Tedros, yet you decided to wait. After over a week you decided to declare it as a PHEIC.

The delay of over a week witnessed a global spread of the coronavirus with over 7700 cases in 18 countries not only China, which you had admitted on January 23rd that China was in a health emergency stage.

So much for transparency Dr Tedros!

Why did WHO ignore the warnings of Taiwan?

The Taiwan Centers for Disease Control (Taiwan CDC) through a letter had warned the World Health Organisation (WHO) in the last week of December 2019 about the human-to-human transmission of the Coronavirus.

But Dr Tedros you denied that Taiwan ever alerted WHO to the possibility of human-to-human transmission. 

WHO stated that it did receive an email from Taiwan on December 31, 2019 which mentioned, “Press reports of cases of atypical pneumonia in Wuhan and that Wuhan authorities believed “it was not SARS”, or Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome which killed 774 people in 2002 and 2003. There was no mention in this mail of human-to-human transmission.”

In response to WHO’s denial that Taiwan ever alerted it to the possibility of human-to-human transmission of COVID-19, the Central Epidemic Command Center made the following statement on April 11, 2020: T

“The Taiwan Centers for Disease Control (Taiwan CDC) learned from online sources that there had been at least seven cases of atypical pneumonia in Wuhan, China. In China, the term “atypical pneumonia” is commonly used to refer to SARS, a disease transmitted between humans caused by coronavirus.

Even though Taiwan strongly suspected that human-to-human transmission of the disease was already occurring at the time, we were unable to gain confirmation through existing channels. Therefore, on the day the aforementioned email was sent to WHO, the Taiwan government activated enhanced border control and quarantine measures based on the assumption that human-to-human transmission was in fact occurring. These measures included screening passengers on flights from Wuhan prior to disembarkation.”

So much for transparency Dr Tedros!

Why the resistance to the travel ban to and from China?

On February 3, 2020, Dr Tedros you stated, “There’s no need for disease prevention measures that “unnecessarily interfere with international travel and trade. We call on all countries to implement decisions that are evidence-based and consistent.”

The travel ban to and from China could have contained the spread to the coronavirus pandemic to China. You however chose to dramatise the travel ban implemented by some nations to and from China as victimising China.

You felt China was facing increasing international isolation due to restrictions on flights to and from the country, and bans on travellers from China.

So much for transparency Dr Tedros!

I got a message from your media cell as few hours back. 

“As Dr Tedros indicated, we will be happy to take your question at any of following press briefings, just let me know in advance and I will make sure you get the floor

Every briefing we have hundreds of journalists online with many wanting to ask the question, we can only take few per briefing while trying to get all parts of the world represented”

I get that we won’t be having question and answer session but just an opportunity to ask you one question, reason being, that hundreds of journalists have questions for you. 

So let me ask you this one question in four parts and I hope you have the honesty to answer it:

If you had a chance to rewind the last few weeks of your life and relook at the decisions that you took as the Director-General of the World Health Organisation and had a chance to deal with Coronavirus Pandemic health crisis differently and more effectively:

  1. Would you still confidently state ‘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”
  2. Would you reverse the decision of January 23. During the WHO’s emergency committee which was divided on whether to declare the coronavirus outbreak as public health emergency of international concern (PHEIC), you decided to wait on the declaration. 
  3. Would you ignore the warnings of Taiwan,
  4. Would you as WHO have put travel restrictions to and from China in order to contain the Coronavirus Pandemic.

I know your links to China.I have exposed them. Those are the sins you will have to deal with because nature is always about balance and the tears of the people dead cries for justice.

But the above four part question is show the world whether you have the heart that mourns for the over 2.5 million positive COVID-19 cases and over 179,000 deaths globally or you have sold your soul to the devil.

Jai Hind.
