Senior World Health Organization (WHO) Official Dr. Bruce Aylward was asked point blank on February 24 whether the Chinese government had censored early coronavirus data, to which he responded that he “didn’t look.”

Aylward is a senior advisor to the WHO director general and led a “fact finding” mission in China from Feb 9 to Feb 24 to study the coronavirus. He praised the the Chinese government’s handling of the disease at great length at a Beijing press conference summarizing the mission’s findings, until a BBC reporter pressed him on China’s history of censorship, according to a transcript of the event.
