I mentioned earlier the reported pressure on the World Health Organization by China to delay declaring the Covid-19 as a pandemic. The delay created the belief around the world that the virus was a local, meaning limited to China.
And so, the world was unable to prepare and take immediate action to protect its citizens. When the WHO finally declared a pandemic, the virus has gone international.
In the interim, China hoarded personal protective equipment and face mask. When the world panicked for lack of these preventive measures, China came around and sold these protective gadgets at higher prices or donated them to look good before the world.
A German intelligence assessment published by Der Spiegel the other week accused and confirmed the earlier reports that Chinese President Xi Jinping personally applied pressure on WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus on January 21 not to reveal the pandemic.
As is known world-wide, the WHO dismissed the notion that Xi himself intervened, but declined to address specifically the question of whether Chinese officials made any effort to delay or change the announcement of a Public Health Emergency of International Concern.
“We don’t comment on specific discussions with member states but we can say that at all times during the pandemic WHO has acted in accordance with its mandate as an evidence-based technical organization focusing on protecting all people, everywhere,” a WHO spokesperson told Newsweek.
“WHO bases its recommendations on science, public health best practices, evidence, data, and the advice of independent experts. Dr Tedros did not communicate with President Xi on Jan 20, 21 or 22. Dr Tedros and his senior team met with President Xi in Beijing on Jan. 28,” the spokesperson said. “The issue of PHEIC did not come up in that meeting.”
Well, that maybe so, but they did meet and China and WHO did not reveal what they talked about. We have only the word of the Chinese spokesman who utters only what he was ordered to say. Considering the information censorship in that communist country, can we believe the Chinese government?
However, the U.S. intelligence officials who spoke to Newsweek could not say whether President Xi played a role in pressuring the WHO. But there are other ways.
When the WHO declared a public health emergency on January 30, it went to great lengths to say that China had done nothing wrong, an approach that sparked some anger in the West and prompted President Donald Trump to criticize the WHO as “China-centric” before he suspended funding in March.
“What World Health got away with is unbelievable. They’re a pipe organ for China, so I’m going to make a decision very soon,” Trump told Republican lawmakers about the future of the U.S. relationship with the WHO.
“China has been widely criticized for its initial handling of the coronavirus outbreak in Wuhan, when the government silenced doctors trying to alert the world, accused the U.S. military of starting the outbreak and, according to the Associated Press (AP), delayed the official announcement of the outbreak by six crucial days as people fled the stricken Chinese city, spreading the coronavirus through the world.”
This fact has been widely reported and many of the information revealed by the world press had been confirmed. China’s words are usually viewed with disbelief.
As cited several reports say, the virus escaped from that laboratory that France financed but was not allowed to manage or to be present in the laboratory. That secrecy raised suspicions that China has ulterior and nefarious motives in its use.
But here is the good news I received yesterday. President Donald Trump has halted funding of the pro-abortion World Health Organization in response to its dealing with the coronavirus.
The report said that “although the President did not call out the WHO for its promotion of abortion, his decision withholds 400 to 500 million dollars in funding for an organization that promotes universal access to ‘safe’ abortions and defends sodomy, and homosexuality.”
In an indirect way the US defunding of the WHO reduces its capabilities to promote the ungodly abortion that daily kills more children than the corona virus.
Trumps action confirms China complicity in the Covid-19 spread. God indeed works in mysterious ways. Without the Covid-19, WHO would not have been exposed and China’s activities in creating a biological weapon would have gone unnoticed.
