      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.

          Replying to @zeynep @cmyeaton

          Absolutely, the damage has been done. Heard from a group of friends that were already skeptical & they've seized on the initial report as a reason why we can "get back to normal now, totally normal" as in, no changes to pre-covid life
