World Health Organization looks ahead to life without the US
LONDON/GENEVA (Reuters) -Hundreds of officials from the World Health Organization will join donors and diplomats in Geneva from Monday with one question dominating their thoughts - how to cope with crises from mpox to cholera without their main funder, the United States. This year - since U.S. President Donald Trump started the year-long process to leave the WHO with an executive order on his first day in office in January - the main theme is scaling down. "Our goal is to focus on the high-value stuff," Daniel Thornton, the WHO's director of coordinated resource mobilisation, told Reuters.
