[Fox News] The World Health Organization is under fire after Taiwan released the contents of a December email inquiring about the person-to-person spread of COVID-19, which it says was ignored by the organization and further denied to provide adequate information about how to fight the virus.

Taiwan is accusing the WHO of downplaying the severity and spread of the coronavirus in an attempt to pander to China, even after Taiwan sounded the alarm about at least seven cases of atypical pneumonia that they were aware of in Wuhan, where the virus originated.

The WHO denied that Taiwan ever alerted them to the potential person-to-person spread of the virus, but Taiwan's CDC said that because they specifically mentioned "atypical pneumonia" — reminiscent of SARS, which is transmitted via human contact — "public health professionals could discern from this wording that there was a real possibility of human-to-human transmission of the disease," they said in a press release.
Who cares? (Ironic pun intended) WHO doesn't even recognize Taiwan, being part of China, doncha know.

#7 Yeah, 'Ignored' is not the right word.

Suppressed is a bit more accurate, oh wordsmiths of professional nature.
