The results in the US are hardly much different than results in other comparable countries.  Area under the curve and all that.

Germany did much better, and works very closely with the WHO. I guess it pays to not get in a snit about tweets.

Germany did do better, other countries in Europe did about the same, or worse.

I don't think the results have a single thing to do with WHO.  It's probably much more related to cultures.   The wife explains this that Germans are much more apt to following orders than the Romantic language countries.  Belgium did quite a bit worse, though their accounting could be different.  Denmark did better.

The UK did about the same as us despite being on an island.

WHO is irrelevant to these statistics in my view.

Anyways, I feel pretty confident saying our response and statements about COVID were many times more incompetent and dishonest than anything the WHO did.
I feel confident that regardless of which of the two parties was sitting in the white house, the response and statements would have been very similar and wouldn't have had much different outcomes at all.

So if incompetence and corruption don't matter, why get mad at the WHO?

Incompetence at CDC, in the MSM for sure, and mostly at the state level in certain states.
and your right- incompetence is in charge now anyway.

If you can’t admit- like CBS news did yesterday- that China was intentionally negligent as was told to us long ago- then your too blind to see.

It’s ok Sam- the days where you get fired or canceled for pointing out what was obvious are behind us now on that topic.  It’s quite fashionable now in fact.  It won’t sway votes either way- so truth is ok.

Yes, but the WHO not the type of organization equipped to do anything about China's government

true, but the WHO could have raised a big red flag and told the world that the Chinese government wasn't cooperating with them to investigate the virus properly.
