There's been all sorts of confusion this week, after a top expert at the World Health Organization seemed to suggest that people without COVID-19 symptoms rarely transmit the virus.

The statement caused head scratching among experts, as asymptomatic transmission - that's giving the virus to someone when you don't have symptoms - is known to occur.

The WHO has since clarified the statements saying they were "misunderstandings".

So what happened and what could it mean for the WHO's reputation?
