    How is is that the WHO and the international community are OK with China not reporting any data on the COVID-19 pandemic?

    • China no careutopian
    • China knows where it was createdutopian
    • right, we know the above, but WHY is the WHO and the rest of the world OK with that??Krassy
    • china's not really part of the world community, they do whatever they like._niko
    • ^ and WHY is the world OK with that???Krassy
    • they do though, its not very useful data (they only report hospitalisations) and they're getting a lot of heat for it from WHO, US, EU...kingsteven
    • i'm not sure where you get the idea they're not reporting data or that there's not uproar about the way they classify cases... there was a WHO report recentlykingsteven
    • which stated that china didn't provide raw data with investigators in the early days of the pandemic, but they still provided data.kingsteven
    • Rule 1 of communists: never show how incompetent we are

      p.s. not even kidding

    • @kingsteven dude, my question is rhetorical, obvi. It's more of a statement that China needs to be held accountable and soon!Krassy
    • and no, they haven't been reporting real data AT ALL! It's mostly fabricated data or grossly reduced numbers that they've been "reporting"Krassy
    • What makes you think the world doesn't care? WHO has called out China (not by name) but also they think they know how China will respond/react.
      ********
    • The international community has many opinions on how to deal with China; how to keep them doing what we need them to do. It's delicate & no one knows.
      ********
    • The only way to get China in line is through a land war but nobody wants to fall victim to one of the two classic blunders of all time!_niko
    • impose sanctions, boycott their exported trash, squeeze their economy, etc. the world needs to show a pair of balls, otherwise the Chinese Empire is inevitableKrassy
    • Chill Krassy, China needs the world longer than the world needs China. They were "closed" before in their past and millions died of hunger.
      ********
    • Also if you want to see the numbers from China, well take a look at India now with their second wave, ppl dead on the streets and in their homes!
      ********
    • @grafician the point is: China should join the world in fighting the pandemic. If they don't share their numbers, the WHO is irrelevant.Krassy
    • govts just playing like they have the upper hand, the forced labour prevention bill is currently being amended in to a fair trade type contract by Apple, Cokekingsteven
    • and pretty much every multinational that relies on china's cheap materials and labour. Its a battle of ideology and we got capitalism... buckle upkingsteven
    • i could be wrong but i think cuz china pays them the most money.pango
    • ^ US pays the WHO double what China pays

    • Welp I was wrong. But if China pulls out it's still a huge blow to WHOpango
    • And they can be very petty. Most countries with trades ties with China wouldn't want any open confrontation with them.pango
