Who cares about the news the WHO is reporting anymore. They have zero credibility after allowing this virus to spread by downplaying its severity and potential, and for what reason? Not to quell panic, but to make sure the greedy corporations of this world can keep making their money. What good is it to report a number that everyone clearly knows is no where near the real number of infected people?
