The United States has withdrawn from the World Health Organization (WHO), prompting other countries to reconsider their participation as well. The text discusses the reasons for this withdrawal and critiques the WHO’s actions and policies regarding the COVID-19 pandemic.
• Withdrawal from WHO: The U. S. has cut ties and funding to WHO, with calls for other nations to do the same due to perceived failures in leadership and credibility.
• Criticism of WHO's Actions: WHO leader Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus claimed that the organization did not mandate lockdowns or mask mandates. However, evidence suggests that WHO supported lockdown measures globally, praising China’s response to the pandemic at the onset.
• Influence on Global Policies: After visiting China early in the pandemic, WHO issued a report positively framing China's strict containment measures, which influenced 194 countries to adopt similar lockdown policies.
• Contradictory Messaging: The WHO's guidelines evolved to support lockdowns and restrictions, even when they became unsustainable, and it maintained a narrative that discouraged lifting these measures, emphasizing ongoing controls and tracking.
• Definition of Herd Immunity: Post-vaccine rollout, WHO altered its definition of herd immunity to emphasize vaccination alone, disregarding natural immunity from infections.
• Support for Totalitarian Measures: WHO's endorsements for lockdowns and other restrictions contributed to governmental overreach and loss of freedoms worldwide, leading to widespread public health and societal issues.
The WHO's perceived failure to act transparently and effectively during the pandemic undermines its credibility. The U. S. has chosen to distance itself from the organization, advocating for nations to prioritize their health sovereignty and needs, emphasizing that global health cannot be managed collectively. The call is for countries to leave the WHO due to its compromised position and the dangerous policies it supported.
