The fact that the WHO is sometimes wrong does not mean that they are always wrong. It also does not mean that any WHO-sourced fact should immediately spawn this reply. In general, the WHO gets more right than they get wrong.

I’m critical of the WHO too but I don’t think it’s productive to make this kind of left turn in this kind of thread.

Do you have any data that suggests the specific WHO-sourced claim in this thread and on this topic is not accurate?

Otherwise it’s just ad hominem, which is noise.

Let’s put it another way: There is no currently available evidence of airborne spread of ncov. That’s a fact regardless of whether the WHO says it or not.

Please remember to keep in mind that the data and the messenger are separate.
