Nope, just pointing out the absurd waste of time and $$ the WHO is. Why do you have that negative opinion of the WHO? I've noticed it's common for right wingers? AM radio shows?

I have a negative opinion of most money gobbling bureaucracies. The WHO specifically is putting dollars ahead of health and is kissing Chinas ass. Their response to this outbreak is shameful. I dont expect you government toadies to comprehend that.

You hate government until it comes to saving your own rear end.

Because you didn't share a link to what WHO did today, with their bizarre explanation, most people here don't even know why you said what you said. I do, and you are right to point out the absurdity.
Therefore I will abstain from sharing a link that would explain it to them as well.

I thought i did include a link, i think it was to the wall street journal. Posting from a tablet tonight so i must of goofed it up, oh well, i dont care enough to try again. It is funny that even mainstream sources are giving the WHO flak over how they are handling this outbreak, and yet of course, not here at RVF, nope, its just those damn right wingers starting shit again.

Or, you can look up the press release the WHO put out, of which GP is commenting on, for yourself.

WHO has put out several press releases in the last few days. It might help if you just fessed up to whatever your all worked up about instead of making everyone guess.

Trying to show some interest in your concerns. In your case I'll admit I'm just going through the motions because you seem to view everything through bright red conservative lenses. But in GP I have a little more respect.

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/11/world...china.html
Quote:The director general of the World Health Organization, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, noted that the new name makes no reference to any of the people, places or animals associated with the coronavirus. The goal was to avoid stigma.
Under international guidelines, the W.H.O. “had to find a name that did not refer to a geographical location, an animal, an individual or group of people, and which is also pronounceable and related to the disease,”
I think GP was commenting on the absurdity of the PC language in the article.
Clear enough?
