China is finally divulging covid data. The WHO says there’s more to the story.

(Washington Post) The World Health Organization is ramping up pressure on China to share key data on its latest coronavirus outbreak, using public statements and behind-the-scenes meetings to push Beijing as it tries to map the largest surge of the pandemic — even if it risks the government’s wrath. It is a stark contrast with the WHO’s approach in early 2020, when its leader, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, praised China’s “transparency” on the new virus even as reports suggested that Beijing had deliberately undercounted cases and silenced whistleblowers.
