They are looking silly now...
Indeed...
I don’t get their strategy. Downplaying the risks to avoid panics, when it’s obvious to everyone they are full of b.s., just increases the panic.
They’d be better off to give accurate information and err on the side of caution.
If WHO had done this in Africa, the epidemic might have been stopped by now.
If CDC had done this, two nurses might not have gotten sick, infected people who took chances infecting others might not have taken those chances, travel bans would be in place, and confidence in air travel would be much higher.
