GENEVA (AP) — The head of the World Health Organization said Tuesday that h
e is “disappointed” that Chinese officials haven't finalized permissions f
or the arrival of team of experts into China to examine origins of COVID-19.
Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, in a rare critique of Beijing, said members of t
he international scientific team have begun over the last 24 hours to leave
from their home countries to China as part of an arrangement between WHO and
the Chinese government.
“Today, we learned that Chinese officials have not yet finalized the necess
ary permissions for the team’s arrival in China,” he told a news conferenc
e in Geneva.
“I’m very disappointed with this news, given that two members had already
begun their journeys and others were not able to travel at the last minute,
but had been in contact with senior Chinese officials,” he said.
Tedros said he had “made it clear” that the mission was a priority for the
U.N. health agency, and that he had been “assured that China is speeding u
p the internal procedures for the earliest possible deployment.”
"We are eager to get the mission underway as soon as possible,” he said.
The experts, drawn from around the world, are expected to visit the city of
Wuhan that is suspected as the place that the coronavirus first emerged over
a year ago.

大意 粗翻请见谅
WHO国际专家团队的成员已经各自从母国前往中国，并预计前往武汉，调查病毒的起源。
但中国迟迟不完成相关的许可。
谭德塞称已向中国官方清楚表达此任务为联合国卫生部门的首要工作，中国也保证会为
此加快内部作业。
对于目前状况，谭德塞感到非常失望。
