A man with a very similar voice to Dr Ryan can be heard saying: "This is exactly the same scenario". In the record Dr Ryan allegedly compared the situation to the 2018 Ebola outbreak in Congo. While another voice of the clip is claimed to be Dr Gauden Galea, WHO's top official in China. The Indian TV channel also claimed Dr Galea allegedly said his team were getting information from China just 15 minutes before it would appear on the state broadcaster CCTV. WHO's China mission issued a statement on January 22 last year confirming that there was evidence of human-to-human transmission in Wuhan.
