The truth about COVID-19, aka the WUHAN FLU, has been documented and even US Intelligence services were warning about the potential issues late 2019, early 2020. We also know the World Health Organization failed in their responsibilities -- the head of that organization and his staff are too busy flying around the world saying 'meat is bad' and slamming the US to have done their jobs.
Other considerations:
1. The head of the WHO, Tedros Adhanom, is not a medical doctor. 2. Adhanom has had little training in pandemics. 3. Adhanom is a long time member of Ethiopian People’s Revolutionary Democratic Front, which is a hard core leftist political group. The EPRDF is also classified as a terrorist organization. 4. The EPRDF is also financially and politically aligned with China. (Tie that fact with Adhanom's behavior with China...)

I am not surprised. That explains much of WHO's failings at the outset. Which I already believed as obvious, especially after reading Trump's letter to the WHO.
What I am surprised about is why the above information has not been shouted all over the globe by Trump. Or has he ?

What I am surprised about is why the above information has not been shouted all over the globe by Trump. Or has he ? Countries around the world have been calling for the defunding and disbanding of the WHO for over a decade when the corruption in that organization became evident. Trump has said he's pulling US funding from the WHO -- something long overdue and about the same time this news broke, Australian politicians began calling for their country's defunding of this organization. Independent watchdog organizations have shown the WHO regularly abuses its position: absurd expenses (first class travel, five star hotels and meals), calling out policies of various countries their members disagree with. As mentioned earlier, the WHO has been on a tear regarding the consumption of meat by the US while China's consumption is exploding.

Then with all the cries for disbanding of the WHO, are countries still taking their cues from it ? Or are they completely ignoring the organisation ?
And why then is the WHO apparently being taken seriously by the news media, as a bona fide entity ? If you know of the connections between China and the WHO, then surely they do.

First Trump removed WHO funding due to China, but then decided to match Chinas'a funds, which I understand was 10% of what the US used to give. If true, that's a compromise that I don't appreciate.

Macky, Apparently you don't read the news or you would know the answer to all of those questions. And since you don't have any idea how the US news media -- eg the Washington Post, CNN, MSNBC, CBS, the NY Times, the Los Angeles Times, et al -- operates and their politics and loyalty, then even if I outlined the facts you'd shown no interest or discount them. Instead, you continue to go with the belief/opinion you've formed from the biased sources you reference. And doing it from New Zealand vs. living here in the US seeing the shit with the many of these outlets every day. Here's a good one: Trump called for greater force to start restoring law and order and protecting innocent people from being beaten, their property destroyed, especially in light of the increased Antifa violence in many cities. What is the US media's response? Check this out and then tell us you've got your finger on the pulse of the US media and how honest and factual they are. As friends had said, if Obama would have done this the media would have called him Jesus. Yet Trump walks to a +200 year old church to show Americans the streets aren't owned by the rioters and look what this asshole has to say: www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2020/06/01/trump-military-protests-george-floyd-cooper-ac360-vpx.cnn

I was asking those questions to you TR, who I believe is well-informed because of the quality of his research, even if he makes illogical deductions about my simple assertions based on his own overall information and possible bias.
Nobody would probably know everything there is to know about the entire US media. It would take up too much of the day, simply trying to read everything current, not to mention past articles, political bias, the underlying connections and meanings etc.
Nevertheless, there are some fairly simple assumptions one can make on available information and is not necessarily based on what political position the source takes.
It would hardly be the done thing for a Trump-supporting publication to be itemizing his lies, or focusing on other short-comings, in such detail. That is a given, and should be remembered.
Therefore any such list would logically be found in a publication whose political bias is against Trump. To try and provide some balance, one of my links was of a Fox commentator, who was critical of Trump's "bs" etc.
Another link was of Wikipedia. You have pretty much disparaged that source because you yourself have corrected Wiki from time to time. Logically, the fact that you were able to correct the site, and presumably your correctio remained standing, was confirmation of a site who states that wherever possible, said site would try and remain impartial and unbiased.
If they were Left as you imply (as you do implying my endorsement of Washington Post, when no such thing is true) they would have taken your correction down and scrubbed it. So with the number of editors and contributors that regularly monitor and edit Wiki, it can hardly be called a site that has much in the way of political bias at all.
Your "bulk-implication" mindset, where just because a source is Left, everything in it should be automatically discarded, is an indication of your own extreme bias, and has been borne out by your attitudes to other debates we have engaged on, in the past. Said debates were notable for your illogical conclusions and almost total lack of evidence for your position, despite me supplying quite lot of plain mainstream evidence to you. That has been noted by others, I might add.

Again Macky, you're sitting down in NZ pretending to have your finger on the pulse of what is happening in the US, playing at all of your alleged esteemed and highly credible resources and TV personality doctors who fit your opinionated bias.
I'll again reference your response to me on Bruv's board when I questioned some actions/activities in NZ and you essentially challenged me and pretty much said a "how dare you" try to make those assumptions living in the United States.
Yet, sitting behind your laptop somewhere in NZ, you pretend you can use biased media references to speak to Trump, COVID-19 and claim your opinion reflects the way, the truth and the light when you don't have the slightest idea what is happening here. Not even close. The bias is sickening whether it is Trump, COVID-19, the Steele Dossier...from day one, the media has been publishing bogus information against Trump, the GOP at the behest of Soros, Obama, Pelosi, etc.
But, according to you Macky, no interest in the facts and the big picture. Nah...why bother?

Nah...why bother? That's pure Bullshit TR, with a capital 'B'. I'm have never pretended to have my finger on the pulse of anything re the US. Then you tell me what it was that I said 'how dare you' on. I encouraged you to tell me some details so it would help in my research. Your last statements are not true at all, and I've said why already. Don't keep on ignoring other peoples' arguments TR. You're getting desperate again, making up false statements.

Here in Australia we have had 103 deaths up until now. We have had a fairly strict lockdown. I thought that it was too strict and that the virus should be allowed to spread at least a little quicker during our summer but the government decided that we should all hide from the virus until now. They eased up on some of the restrictions the other week and the virus has started to spread again. So they have now brought back in some of the restrictions. Well done to the Australian government for postponing the virus until fucking flu season.

Does this mean that you're gonna move to NZ soon, Bruv ? Or are you a bit worried the country might float away once its ties with Oz become more strained ?
Of course, if you do decide to cross the Ditch, you'll have to have a command of at least three languages in Auckland. Hindi, Arabic, and Chinglish.

It's estimated that one of five Aucklanders are Asian of some sort or other. Especially Indians from either Fiji or the Old Country.
In fact, one may ask "what is the seven most uncomfortable words in Auckland, today ?" The answer is.....
"Heyllow, ahmm yorr noo nex doorr neebah !"
Seriously, there's very little problem with any of them. The most grief any of them will bring is to their own people, usually by way of fraud or immigration rackets. Got many friends among them.
