That was the science du jour more than a month ago.
Is it still considered science? Or was it relegated to right wing, Trump supporters, Bolsonaro followers, conspiracy theory status by now?
The WHO came out with their nonsense and were debunked by literally everyone. So badly debunked they actually
retracted it the next day. Here's an article linking to a study that shows a little more than half of the spread has come from asymptomatic/presymptomatic cases
https://abcnews.go.com/Health/asymptomatic-presymptomatic-people-transmit-covid-19-infections-study/story?id=71647268 But regardless, no one should be relying on the WHO for corona advice. I don’t remember the last time the WHO said something about Covid that wasn’t false or outdated.
-The WHO removed guidance that traditional Chinese medicine is an ineffective treatment after receiving Chinese money
-The WHO refused to classify corona as a pandemic until pretty late in the game (Mid/late March?)
-The WHO claimed no human-to-human transmission
-The WHO did not recommend masks for public use until June despite numerous studies
-WHO claimed 99% of cases experience fever (lol)
-WHO claims no asymptomatic/presymptomatic spread
-WHO refuses to recognize that corona is airborne
I'm sure there's more but this is what I remember.
