WHO Director Was Called To Resign After Being Accused Of Helping China Covering Up The Outbreak

WHO’s director-general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus is being called to step down from the position as U.S politicians blaming him for the spread of CO.VID-19 as he trusted the Chinese government’s initial report of the pandemic.

Back in February, when China announced that it had 17,238 cases of CO.VID-19, Tedros said that travel restriction was unnecessary, explaining that would interfere with international trade.

On the 20^th of March, he praised China for its effort to contain the outbreak, saying that it gave the world hope that the pandemic could be beaten.

China has been under fire for some time as some accused it of downplaying the real number of CO.VID-19 deaths, which they thought could reach 40,000.

The proof they cited is the long queues at funeral homes in Wuhan, sparking skepticism that Wuhan may have lost at least 40,000 lives.

In India, the total number of cases has crossed 5000 with 149 deaths. As stated by the Union Health Ministry, the country is having 4643 active cases and 401 patients have recovered.

Maharashtra is the worst-affected state with over 1,000 cases, followed by Tamil Nadu and Delhi.

India is currently under the lengthy 21-day lockdown with the government considering extending the duration according to recommendations from experts and state governments.

However, until there is an official announcement, the government advised citizens not to speculate. Amid the CO.VID-19 outbreak, countries are working against the clock to find vaccines and treatment to the novel disease.
