WHO director-general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, who goes by Dr. Tedros—though he is not a medical doctor—has repeatedly lauded China's measures to contain the virus despite mounting evidence the communist regime has been less than forthcoming with the international community.
A classified U.S. intelligence report recently concluded China lied about its internal spread and death toll.
"Dr. Tedros deceived the world," said Sen. Martha McSally. "Since the very beginning of this crisis, Tedros has parroted Chinese government talking points...
...even praising the communist party's ‘transparency' during its coronavirus response efforts despite a mountain of evidence showing that the regime concealed the severity of the outbreak."
"At the direction of Tedros, the WHO provided cover for China for months as it attempted to shirk accountability for its bungled efforts to contain this virus," McSally added. "This deception cost lives."
Tedros has repeatedly praised China's response to the coronavirus.

"China is to be congratulated for the extraordinary measures it has taken to contain the outbreak despite the severe social and economic impact that it is having on China," Tedros said in February.
On March 20, he repeated China's dubious claim that it had "no domestic COVID19" cases, calling it an "amazing achievement."
