Article from For Liberty by Norm Leahy.
The World Health Organization (WHO) is pushing back against criticism from President Donald Trump that the agency “really blew it” over the coronavirus and the administration may reconsider U.S. funding.
WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said countries should stop trying to “exploit” the virus for political ends “if you don’t want to have many more body bags.”
The WHO’s early response to the coronavirus was both perplexing and, for some, utterly in keeping with its own highly-politicized past.
Author Matt Ridley notes the WHO has a series of deadly public health failures and politicized lapses it must answer for:
When the ebola outbreak in West Africa that was to kill 11,000 people began in late 2013, on its own admission WHO hindered the fight against the virus, obsessed with not letting others find out what was happening.
The WHO has spent huge amounts of resources combatting smoking, climate change, obesity and guns.
As Ridley writes:
It is an open secret among international diplomats and public health experts that WHO is “not fit for mission” (as one of them put it to me), riddled with politics and bureaucracy.
When the coronavirus pandemic is contained, the WHO and its leadership should be among those required to answer for their own politically motivated actions…actions that have resulted in tens of thousands of deaths worldwide.

Yes …. Trump is Right!!! WHO is not to be trusted …. just as the Chinese government is not to be trusted!!!

President Trump is absolutely right to get rid of WHO, and throw in the great doc Fauci. Saying it would have been better if we had started earlier..say what?

Who and the UN are being taken over by China. We need to get out of both organizations.
Pull All funding
YES – President Trump IS RIGHT – He needs to get rid of WHO – The UN – and Fauci.
Stop funding the WHO. They are worthless and useless
Good for President TRUMP, he is sick and tired of the WHO taking advantage of us by not having the others pay more , we can help but we are not going to be taken advantage of , WHY SHOULD WE , we need that money for our own people who have given our money into this . President w is looking out for the American people and the USA

The WHO is an arm of the UN, and that alone is all the information anyone needs to know that it is hostile toward American sovereignty.

Tedros Adhanom, so-called “director” of the WHO (and is not really a doctor but has a Phd. in some Community BS) and hails from Ethiopia, is enjoying the finished construction of a large professional hospital facility newly erected in Ethiopia, funded primarily by funds directly provided by the Chinese Communist Party.
Bill Gates IS exactly who influences WHO. WHO has lost it’s credibility. (I by the way am a Democrat, so don’t call me names)
Crimes against humanity and terrorism seems appropriate to me. WHO should get their own wing at Gitmo.
Stop supporting this communist organization. To many organizations have taken advantage of the weak minded previous administrations.
