But this is the exact example of misinformation spreading easily. I assume you a a reasonable, rational and well informed individual like most on HN, but you still believe this bit of misinformation. The WHO never said that the virus could not spread from human to human, they said "there is no evidence for human to human spreading". That nuance makes a big difference in meaning, the absence of evidence for something is not evidence for the absence of something. But this nuance was lost in all of the misinformation spreading.
