#COVID19 brought a lot of revelations to the world.

Back in Medical School, we used to view W.H.O as an earthly god. If the information was from W.H.O then it had to be ABSOLUTELY 100% correct. No Questions!

In January 2020, W.H.O told the world that Coronavirus showed no evidence of human-to-human transmission. This turned out to be a wrong.....No... Wrong is an understatement. A PURULENT stuff which has led to the death of Tens of Thousands of People worldwide.

There was a time we used to think that CNN was the gold-standard in News. If the news was from CNN then it was 100% correct..No questions.
Few Days ago ,CNN accused Ellon Musk of not delivering the promised Ventilators to U.S. Ellon Musk laughed and said,

"I literally have the receipts!!!!"

Back in Medical School too, we used to think that CDC was infallible.
Last month, CDC delivered contaminated #COVID19 test kits to U.S resulting in many false positive results.

#COVID19 is an eye opener!!!!
