U.S. Withdrawal from the World Health Organization: Prioritizing Public Health and National Sovereignty
This executive order from January 20, 2025, details the withdrawal of the United States from the World Health Organization (WHO). The order cites concerns about the WHO's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, its lack of reform, and its susceptibility to political influence, as well as financially burdensome contributions demanded from the U.S. compared to other nations. The order outlines steps to halt funding, recall personnel, and identify alternative partners, effectively ending U.S. participation in WHO activities, including negotiations on the Pandemic Agreement. The document also revokes previous orders that sought to reverse the initial withdrawal decision. Finally, it emphasizes that this action does not affect existing departmental authorities.
