On China's ties with the WHO, the question of the origin of COVID and more. Read all important and current news about China and the WHO from the China.Table editorial team.
The World Health Organization, or WHO, is a United Nations agency that works to expand global health care.
The complex ties between the WHO and China are globally a matter of broad discussion, which was demonstrated by the debate about the origin of the coronavirus disease (COVID). The Chinese city of Wuhan is believed to be the place of its origin. China long denied the World Health Organization access to an independent investigation into the origins of COVID. When a team of scientists was able to enter the country, the resulting WHO report on COVID-19 in China drew criticism from several EU countries. They accused China of a lack of transparency in the investigations and covering up the origins of COVID. Furthermore, there were repeated accusations that a laboratory in China was the origin of COVID. However, this theory is considered unlikely.
In addition, the WHO is responsible for the approval of vaccines. Recently, the organization approved several COVID vaccines from China. These include Sinopharm and Sinovac.
