Italian Whistleblower Says W.H.O. Superiors Forced Him to Change Coronavirus Report

The W.H.O. pulled down the report the same day it was published, supposedly because it contained some minor factual errors, which Zambon maintains were quickly and easily corrected. He said the real reason the report was quashed was because it reflected very poorly on the Italian government, so strings were pulled to shut it down.

Zambon told Sky News on Wednesday that W.H.O. jeopardized lives around the world by suppressing his report, since other governments could have learned valuable lessons from Italy’s errors:

“They could have had what we didn’t have, time,” he told me at his home in Venice.

“We [in Italy] didn’t have time to prepare, but this report would have allowed them to buy time, which was by far the most important route for getting better prepared for the pandemic.”

“I think that the problem here is about the lack of independence and lack of transparency of the World Health Organization.

“The mandate of the organization is to preserve, to promote the health of the citizens of the entire world… and the story that happened in a year shows that the organization is bound by personal interests, by governments’ interest, and by financial powers,” he said.

Zambon also said W.H.O. violated its own whistleblower rules by refusing to follow up when he complained about interference from senior officials.
