Summary
The World Health Organization (WHO) expressed concern over the United States’ recent withdrawal from the agency, stating that it makes both the U.S. and the world “less safe.” The U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. confirmed the withdrawal, which they claimed frees the U.S. from constraints imposed by the WHO. The WHO rejected claims of pursuing a politicized agenda, asserting its neutrality and mission to serve all countries.
