The United States' withdrawal from the World Health Organization, led by President Donald Trump, raises concerns about the agency's ability to combat diseases and respond to global health emergencies. As the WHO's biggest funder, the U.S. withdrawal is likely to significantly impact global health security, disease prevention, and emergency response efforts. The move may exacerbate health crises, particularly in low-income countries, and undermine the global health infrastructure. With the WHO playing a critical role in infectious disease control and healthcare systems, the U.S. withdrawal poses significant risks to public health worldwide, including the spread of infectious diseases and pandemics.
