The World Health Organization (WHO) is not only fighting to contain the coronavirus, it is also “battling the trolls and conspiracy theorists that push misinformation and undermine the outbreak response,” the organization said Saturday. 
“While the virus spreads, misinformation makes the job of our heroic health workers even harder. It is diverting the attention of decision makers. And it causes confusion and spreads fear to the general public,” WHO Director General, Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said in a press briefing.

“This was the first time in my life that I truly wept to the point of being sick in my body,” Ivy Cleveland told CNN. “I just laid over her bed, over her crib that I had prepared for her and look up at the pictures in the wall, and her clothes in her closet, understanding that this is not happening right now.”Last month, the State Department issued a warning to defer people from traveling to china at the moment. The Clevelands are unsure when they will able travel to China, but said they are not ready to give up their adoption process. Please be aware that this virus has already been found in 28 countries.
