WHO Addresses Trump's Funding Withdrawal, Ebola Outbreak in DRC


Global News:
World Health Organization (WHO) director-general Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said on Monday that the world has long benefited from the contribution of the government and the people of the U.S. towards global health and “it’s WHO’s wish for it to continue.” 

This comes after u.S. President Donald Trump's announcement on Friday to "cut all ties" with WHO amid disagreements on their handling of the pandemic. 

Tedros also addressed the recent Ebloa outbreak declared in the city of Mbandaka in Westren Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) after another complex Ebola outbreak in Eastren DRC, which seems to be in its final phase.
