A group of international scientists who say there is evidence that the CCP virus can be spread through airborne transmission have called on the World Health Organization (WHO) to revise its recommendations on the virus, which causes the respiratory disease COVID-19.

The WHO has held that the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus disease is transmitted mostly from person to person through small droplets from the nose or mouth, which are expelled when a person with COVID-19 coughs, sneezes, or speaks.
