Fmr. Obama HHS Sec.: If The United States Withdraws from WHO, It May Well Collapse, Making Americans Far Less Safe and Secure

EXCERPT:

SEBELIUS: “Well, I'm afraid what it will be is the World Health Organization, which has been around since the end of World War II and includes basically every country in the world -- if the United States withdraws it may well collapse. And what that does is not just make Americans far less safe and secure but it -- it really sends ripples throughout the world in terms of not being able to detect and prevent and restrain diseases at a very early stage, not being able to share information. We saw Kate what happened when Donald Trump withdrew personnel from China in his first administration. We had CDC personnel who were headquartered in China I work closely with the Chinese Health Ministry. They left. It took us a lot longer to find out about Covid and what was going on with Covid than it should have. And frankly, Covid was already in the United States by the time we started executing measures to try and restrain the spread of the disease. That's a great example of how vulnerable we are.”
