This issue shows that WHO is a shill for China.

Taiwan is a Country. It's not a part of China.

Non of the western countries dare to make formal propose in WHO to invite Taiwan to WHA conference. Shame on them!!

Long live free Taiwan

WHA. Not WHO. No one has the bollocks to support WHO membership for Taiwan. Not even the USA.
