There is also the issue of ‘perspective’. How many people in Africa in 2022 died from malaria, yellow fever, dengue fever, and other common, endemic diseases? Maybe 100 million+, not to mention health problems such as dysentery and malnutrition. So why doesn’t the WHO panic over those deaths? The WHO, and related scientific interests, fixate on the ‘new’ diseases because that’s how they can get funding, peer recognition, and power.The tropical parts of the world have always endured huge casualties from tropical diseases - and these diseases have never ‘taken over’ the rest of the world. The mosquitoes that spread malaria wouldn’t survive one day of my Minnesota winter.
The power-mad WHO is a ‘cure’ in search of a problem. If there are 3,000 cases of a disease, out of a population of one billion-plus Africans, they are going to try to leverage that into more money and power for themselves. Let’s not fall for it, okay? You’re right, Peter, they don’t care - except about themselves.
To document the complete mendacity and hypocrisy of the WHO would be a book unto itself--and I might just try to write that!
There is no denying that the actual health and well-being of the people of DRC, or anywhere in Africa, are at all a serious concern of either the WHO or the Africa CDC.

The bureaucrats simply do not give a damn.
