In a bold move, President Donald Trump has signed an executive order to initiate the US withdrawal from the World Health Organization (WHO). This decision has sparked intense debate and raises concerns about the country's global health leadership. The US has been a key player in the WHO, providing significant funding and expertise. However, Trump's administration has criticized the organization's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, citing a need for reform. With this move, the US joins a growing list of countries reevaluating their involvement with the WHO, amid a global health crisis. Key issues like global health security and pandemic preparedness are at stake.
