> There was no evidence of human-to-human transmission early on, too.

I have two comments about that:

1) Like somebody else said, if you don't look, you won't find evidence, even if it's there.

2) Wuhan officials were incentivized to say it wasn't contagious, ergo, no lockdown needed.

However, it clearly was being transmitted to non-wet market patients in late Nov./early Dec., and Disneyworld Shanghai was closed Jan. 24, so you have to be wilfully blind to say it's not contagious.



Yes, the WHO is not a spy organization. They rely in large part on cooperation from member nations.

Sometimes that’s an issue, but it doesn’t mean they were lying when they said they didn’t have the evidence yet.
