As questions are raised about the role the World Health Organization played in an alleged cover-up of the scope of the coronavirus, House Republicans want answers.

The organization has faced criticism from those who say that it has been biased in favor of China.

To get to the truth, House Republicans have sent a letter to WHO Director-General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus.

The letter, dated Thursday, is signed by Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio, ranking member on the House Committee on Oversight and Reform, as well as Reps. Jody Hice of Georgia, James Comer of Kentucky, Glenn Grothman of Wisconsin, Fred Keller of Pennsylvania, Mark Green of Tennessee, Chip Roy of Texas, Greg Steube of Florida, Kelly Armstrong of North Dakota, Carol Miller of West Virginia, Thomas Massie of Kentucky and Virginia Foxx of North Carolina.

“The World Health Organization should be ashamed that they relied on Chinese propaganda when deciding how to combat the coronavirus crisis,” Jordan said in a news release posted on the website of the committee’s GOP minority. “President Trump is right to question the WHO’s role in global health going forward.”

President Donald Trump has been among the voices criticizing the WHO:

“The W.H.O. really blew it. For some reason, funded largely by the United States, yet very China centric. We will be giving that a good look. Fortunately I rejected their advice on keeping our borders open to China early on. Why did they give us such a faulty recommendation?” Trump tweeted Tuesday.

Don't get excited that much as discussions here rotate more around the rivalry between China and the US than any alleged short-comings of the WHO as an institution, in which WHO is just used as another proxy for a wider and pre-existing political or otherwise rivalry between two global players.

It is possible that the WHO might have (had) a shortcoming in handling the global crisis, but so do many other governments around the world and the blame game must be put into context here.

It was Dr. Tedros himself who said around the beginning of the crisis that "we are in uncharted territory here" and this indicates also how much the organisation itself was overwhelmed by the new pandemic and assessing its consequences.

We didn't see any credible instances where the organisation was intentionally holding back any needed information and handling in uncharted territory should be challenging to anybody, the blamegame is not justified here, in my view.
