"Health expert" sounds like a broader term than "medical expert." All medical experts are also health experts, but not all health experts are medical experts. Dietitians, personal trainers, Chinese herbalists, counsellors, physiologists are all health experts but not medical experts. It would be helpful if the article told us who these health experts were. Governments were acting on the advice of medical experts like Dr. Kerry Chant etc.

This article is also loaded with emotively biased language... so much for professional journalistic neutrality. I wouldn't even write a toy review with this level of bias, and quite frankly, if a student ever tried to use this kind of language in a persuasive writing text, I would have to give them a pretty low score (as they're trying to use emotional bias rather than objective evidence or logic to persuade the audience).
