#6 Well, we regret their lies and their shilling for the America's greatest enemy. Maybe ask China or the EU to pick up the difference.

#10 But as far as I can tell they still don't have any regrets for getting the Coronavirus info totally backwards and helping to turn a local outbreak into a pandemic.

#11  Gates or Bloomberg can chip in some more

Bill and Melinda Gates say Trump's halting of WHO funding is dangerous and 'does not make any sense' as the philanthropists pledge an extra $150 million to fight coronavirus pandemic


Buying their way into the world health industry.

#12 If Bill sold a Windows upgrade that caused your computer to die, would Bill expect people to continue to pay for upgrades? the WHO failed on such an epic scale you have to wonder if the damage wasn't intentional. Why pay either way?

#15 Does this self-regarding clown not recognize the irony-- obvious to all of us who were ever stuck using his shitty products-- of the all-time champeen computer virus-enabler posturing as an expert on virology?

Thanks for the clarification :-)

#19 There is, of course, no chance whatsoever that WHO will admit they were selling exactly what their Chinese masters told them to, regardless of where their funding was coming from. Shut it down, make sure no WHO employee ever works in any such capacity ever again. That will at least for a bit get people's attention.
