The World Health Organization (WHO) is reassessing its priorities following President Trump's order to withdraw U.S. support, marking a substantial financial concern for the agency. WHO Chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus expressed regret over this decision, emphasizing the importance of maintaining a collaborative relationship with the U.S. amid health crisis challenges. WHO spokesman Christian Lindmeier cautioned that this withdrawal could undermine global health security, particularly the sharing of critical health data that underpins effective disease management, especially in relation to ongoing outbreaks such as bird flu.
