With the WHO on top of it, and information from reputable sources saying 'human to hum contraction is possible but not really easy', I disagree with you.

 

My opinion is based on the CCP's reaction to previous natural disasters which has been focused on 'The Mandate of Heaven' doctrine. 

 

I've read in The Guardian that the WHO will be meeting again today as they want further information. Hopefully their decision to step-back from declaring it an 'international concern' as they did yesterday still holds but I am sceptical.

Breaking: Flight #CSN3785 from #KWE expected to land in Wuhan just flew past without landing, still in flight to who knows where. No announcement from WHO.

 

WHO is a bureaucracy, they are on top in the sense they are the last to know. Knowledge travels up. But they have global responsibility to make correct decisions. Usually, not always, you can get the slowest but accurate information from WHO.
