WHO and IOC accused of coverup of Zika threat to Rio Olympics

The Rio Olympics have been hit by allegations of a conflict of interest over the dangers of the Zika virus to thousands of athletes and fans travelling to Brazil this summer.

Health experts have accused organisers of failing to take the threat of the virus seriously enough by refusing to cancel or postpone the Games.

They accused the World Health Organisation (WHO) of ignoring the danger to public health and being too close to the International Olympic Committee. ​
