The World Health Organization continued to applaud China in the month of January for publicly providing information related to the corona virus 'immediately', but it has been revealed in the documents that it was concerned that China is not sharing enough information to assess the risk posed by the new virus and that the world is spending its valuable time.

In fact, Chinese authorities delayed the release of genetic maps, or genomes, of the deadly virus for more than a week, despite it being decoded completely in many government laboratories in China and for testing, drugs and vaccines details were not shared.

Internal documents, e-mails and dozens of conversational records obtained by news agency AP have revealed that strict control over information and competition within China's public health system was mainly blamed, whereas Health officials made the virus's genome public on January 11 after a Chinese laboratory published an article about it on a virology website.
