In a series of interviews and gaggles this morning, @KellyannePolls took regular aim at the WHO and spoke rhetorically about the name of the illness, Covid-19, caused by the coronavirus.

(She also said the WHO lied and described Trump's funding announcement as a "pause.")
"This can come back in the fall, in a limited way. This is COVID-19, not COVID-1, folks. And so you would think that people charged with the World Health Organization facts and figures would be on top of that," she told Fox.

(ie: this stuff ain't new, the WHO should have known.)
Later, after another TV hit, she told reporters at the White House:

"It's called Covid-19, not Covid-20. It originated in 2019 even though the WHO called it a global pandemic some time in March of 2020."

"They knew for a while and they dragged their feet, it looks like."
