Taiwan's treatment is a result of pressure from China, which the WHO, uniquely or not, apparently kowtows to.



Your concerns are valid. The IPCC reports were also heavily criticized for heavy biases in due to pressure from the US (particularly the US military). However, that doesn't mean that the IPCC reports weren't overall an incredibly useful scientific feat
