This is breathtaking. The WHO has corrected its public timeline of events with regards to this virus. They initially had publicly indicated that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) had reported the outbreak to the WHO. Now they are admitting that the CCP never did report it. Not to this day apparently.
Instead, the WHO got its information when the “Wuhan Municipal Health Commission, China, reported a cluster of cases of pneumonia in Wuhan.”
The World Health Organization backtracked on its assertion that the Chinese government alerted the United Nations agency about the coronavirus outbreak.
The WHO quietly updated its “Timeline of WHO’s response to COVID-19” on Tuesday following the House Foreign Affairs Committee Republicans' mid-June Interim Report on Origins of COVID-19 Pandemic (led by ranking member and China task force Chairman Rep. Michael McCaul of Texas), which concluded that “despite public reporting to the contrary ... China never notified the WHO about the outbreak in Wuhan.”
The previous iteration of the timeline said the “Wuhan Municipal Health Commission, China, reported a cluster of cases of pneumonia in Wuhan.” The updated timeline states that the WHO’s country office in China “picked up a media statement by the Wuhan Municipal Health Commission from their website on cases of ‘viral pneumonia’ in Wuhan” and that the WHO’s Epidemic Intelligence from Open Sources platform “also picked up a media report on ProMED ... about the same cluster of cases of ‘pneumonia of unknown cause’ in Wuhan.”
Completely irresponsible. Not just the CCP, but the WHO as well. These people clearly cannot be trusted.
Trump cutting their funding must have got their attention !!!
I suppose next they will be claiming they couldn't report the truth b/c the communist Chinees were holding their family members hostage !!!
...they flat out lied to the whole world....to cover for China
China Never Reported Existence of Coronavirus to World Health Organization
WHO backtracks on original claim that China self-reported, admits this never happened'

You're blaming WHO for China's dishonesty?
