Trump signs order to withdraw U.S. from World Health Organization

President Trump has signed an executive order to withdraw the U.S. from the World Health Organization. This action follows his criticism of the WHO's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic during his first term. This marks the second attempt to exit the organization in less than five years. The decision has raised concerns among scientists about potential setbacks in global health efforts against infectious diseases. The White House cited the WHO's mishandling of the pandemic and its perceived political influences as reasons for the withdrawal. Trump has also criticized the financial contributions expected from the U.S. compared to other countries.
