The US has accused the World Health Organization (WHO) of allowing the Covid-19 outbreak to spin "out of control" at the cost of "many lives".  As quoted by BBC.com (18/5) US health secretary Alex Azar  on Monday said that there was a failure by this organization to obtain the information that the world needed. Mr Azar made the comments in an address to the UN's World Health Assembly/ WHO Chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus earlier agreed to a review over the agency's handling of the pandemic.  Dr Tedros said an independent evaluation, which would look at what lessons could be learned and put forward any recommendations, would take place "at the earliest opportunity". The two-day assembly - an annual meeting involving 194 member states of the WHO that reviews the work of the UN's health agency - comes amid recriminations between the US and China over the virus//BBC
