      Worth keeping in mind that WHO staff like @mvankerkhove @DrMikeRyan @SCBriand & more have been running at top speed since early Jan. Doing daily press briefings & assisting countries while under fire from all corners. They must be exhausted like all of us & need some support.

      They, as persons, have all my sympathy, but there was no excuse for waiting a day to correct this. The damage has been extensive. Why couldn’t the organization just put out a quick three sentence response?

      A pandemic is a communication emergency and if you lose trust of the people, you cannot fight the virus. Yesterday, I saw (while outdoors) someone I haven’t seen in five months and I swear, he said to me was hey, WHO says no asymptomatic transmission. Inexcusable failure.

      As is writing in the middle of a pandemic for an audience of millions with a self-proclaimed authority about subjects which aren't within your field of expertise. For many many months. You should practice what you preach.

          I'm sure you'll be happy to spell out precisely what the limits of that field are & why a sociologist doesn't get to step outside them; when you're done please then explain what your Communication Science MSc limits *you* to speaking about.

          I am of the opinion you should stick to your own expertise and not make epidemiological or medical statements if you have an audience of millions especially not during a crisis. As an academic influencer you have an accountabilty to your audience which I have not.

          with an MSc in Communication Science and 23 followers, you go against an accomplished prof., writer, author, w/ a 341.5k following. really?! bother to even google this person?

          Maybe that's what one learns in some communication science course? To make a fuzz and gather a few new followers that way? 🙃

          Well I do not have a column in the NY Times with an audience of millions. Such an audience comes with an accountability.

          You studied communication science at college and then with the ink barely dry on your certificate you choose Twitter as a platform to mansplain @zeynep! Dude did you learn nothing at all in class? Still at least you are getting schooled right now for free!

          After more than a decade of teaching/researching/writing about pandemics, and after months of writing academic and popular articles about this pandemic that I proudly stand behind, and have more than stood the test of time, I still get random white dudes telling me this.🙄 https://twitter.com/Simon_Veldt/status/1270433204764389376 …
