I would still love to see our Democratic states join the WHO as a coalition.

It's fine, just drop the US like a bad habit. We just froze our government funding too, shipping out naturalized citizens, and we'll be irrelevant by 2030. The world needs to move on without us.

While the ice cap melts and ALL living organisms are adapting to survive climate changes, viruses don’t care what color you are or how much cash is in your banks.

Since the country I live in pulled out the WHO. And there is an out break of TB in Kansas. Go ahead and jsut quarantine America and issue an do not travel order. That will teach Trump

Unfortunately, in addition to being severely under-funded, the WHO has no powers of enforcement whatsoever. It relies on diplomacy and cooperation. And the U.S. doesn’t play well with others anymore.
