In a decisive move, former President Trump has signed an executive order to withdraw the United States from the World Health Organization (WHO), citing mismanagement during the COVID-19 pandemic and funding disparities. Health experts warn that this decision poses significant risks to global health governance and could leave the WHO in uncharted territory. The withdrawal is seen as a potential strategic mistake, with calls for the U.S. to reform the organization instead of exiting. As the global health community braces for the implications of this decision, questions arise about future international cooperation and U.S. leadership in global health efforts.
