The WHO said there had been no reports of it spreading human to human. And that was true, there hadn’t.
The reason your favourite conspiracy sources are taken offline is because they lie - they make you, an otherwise intelligent person, believe something that wasn’t true.
A favoured argument by one section of the internet is that “it doesn’t spread from
Children to Adults”. An extraordinary claim.
They interpret the statement “there have been limited cases of it spreading from children” and treat that absense of evidence as an evidence of absence.
Note that in January, in a QA dated 9th, they did say
“Yes, some coronaviruses can be transmitted from person to person, usually after close contact with an infected patient, for example, in a household workplace, or health care centre.”
I.e coronaviruses in general spread, we haven’t seen this one spread yet.
