The article claims it was a “mistake” to knowingly make a false statement. I stopped reading immediately at that. This propaganda is disgusting, I used to respect Nature.

Saying it was a mistake elides responsibility and glosses over alternatives. How would you have articulated it, and would you have responded differently?

By saying: It was a FAULT to knowingly make a false statement

Fault as in: someone should pay for it.

Definitely NOT a “honest mistake”

The WHO is doing damage control.
