In a significant move, President Donald Trump has announced the United States' exit from the World Health Organization, citing the agency's mishandling of the COVID-19 pandemic and other global health crises. The decision is likely to have far-reaching implications for international health cooperation and the fight against future pandemics. With the US being a major contributor to the WHO, this withdrawal may impact the organization's ability to respond to health emergencies, including coronavirus outbreaks and infectious disease control. The move has sparked concerns about the future of global health security and the role of the US in international health organizations.
