Resignation of Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus - The WHO Director General

The Issue

On January 23rd, 2020, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus declined to declare the COVID-19 Virus outbreak as a global health emergency.

COVID-19 is not treatable at the moment.

Currently it's February 23, 2020. This is the stats:

Globally: 75 748 confirmed (548 new)
China: 74 675 confirmed (399 new) and 2121 deaths (115 new)
Outside of China: 1073 confirmed (149 new), 26 countries (1 new) and 8 deaths (5 new).

Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus under estimated the coronavirus (COVID-19). We strongly believe Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus is not fit for his role as WHO Director General. We believe he should still be a top member of the team but not the lead role. We had a window of opportunity but you didn't make the call and now we're suffering.

A lot of us are really disappointed. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus believed the original numbers China gave us and didn't send in a team to investigate.

Please help the world to gain faith to the UN and WHO again.
