World Health Organization — March 2020

What this register recorded from WHO in March 2020, what other African authorities published in the same month that bears on it, and what we could not read in WHO’s own notices. Every figure here is a count of published regulatory actions. None of it is a finding about World Health Organization.

What WHO published

3 action(s) recorded: 3 public warning.

What other authorities published

Nothing published elsewhere this month joins to WHO by either of the two links this register will draw — a shared event, or a manufacturer WHO has itself named. That is a statement about those two links and not about the month.

What we could not read in WHO’s notices

Our failures on WHO’s coverage, across the whole register rather than this month. Published because a report that told an authority only what it was missing would be an audit sent by someone with no standing to conduct one.

  • 78 record(s) held from WHO in total
  • 0 carry no publication date we could read
  • 4 name neither a batch nor a stated reason
  • 66 name no manufacturer
  • 4 are searchable and API-available but carry noindex, because they are too incomplete for a public URL
  • 0 have no archived copy of the original notice

Each of these is something WHO published and this register did not capture, or captured incompletely. None of them is a failure by WHO.

Correcting this

Anything on this page that is wrong about World Health Organization can be corrected by World Health Organization, and a record published by one of its officers carries verification tier 0 — the rank only the issuing regulator can create. Nothing else on this register does.

Write to notices@drugeyeafrica.org. Corrections to existing records are logged and published on the corrections page; a superseded record keeps its URL and points forward to the one that replaced it.
