Did you reply to the wrong comment? We're discussing whether the WHO put out simultaneously contradictory information. Whether the WHO's politics matches your preferred politics for southeast Asia doesn't seem topical?

It goes to the issue of whether they are a reliable source of information or not. To spell it out, if WHO is captured by countries (China in this case) that stand to gain or lose if the information goes one way or the other, then we need look no farther to know that their information is not reliable.

FYI Taiwan is East Asia, not Southeast Asia. Perhaps you were thinking of Thailand.
