WHO’S CREDIBILITY STINKS: World Health Organizations says it’s still unsure what caused pneumonia that killed plague-lab worker from Irkutsk Anti-Plague Research Institute in Siberia.

As a reminder, there was substantial evidence of a novel disease outbreak in Wuhan in early 2020. The escalating epidemic emergency of 2020 became unmistakable when authorities quarantined Wuhan and extended restrictions to eight additional cities, while Beijing canceled major Chinese New Year celebrations to curb transmission.

In the age of social media and satellites, it would be difficult to hide a rapidly expanding outbreak of the airborne version of the bubonic plague.

Furthermore, WHO is still investigating and has officially noted that no case of plague had been registered in Russia.

Stay tuned.

But as little as I think of WHO these days, it is hard to hide a plague.
