Argentina says it will withdraw from the World Health Organization, echoing Trump

BUENOS AIRES (AP) — Argentina's president has ordered the country's withdrawal from the World Health Organization due to “profound differences” with the U.N. agency, a presidential spokesperson said Wednesday.

President Javier Milei's decision echoes that of his ally, U.S. President Donald Trump, who began the process of pulling the United States out of WHO with an executive order on his first day back in office on Jan. 21.

The loss of another member country will further fracture cooperation in global health, though Argentina was expected to provide only about $8 million to WHO for the agency’s estimated $6.9 billion 2024-2025 budget.

Argentina’s decision is based on “profound differences in health management, especially during the (COVID-19) pandemic,” spokesperson Manuel Adorni told a news conference in Buenos Aires. He said WHO guidelines at the time led to the largest shutdown “in the history of mankind.”

Argentina will not allow an international organization to intervene in its sovereignty “and much less in our health,” he added.

WHO has no authority to compel countries to take specific health actions, and the organization’s guidelines and recommendations, including in health crises like COVID-19, are often disregarded.

Been thinking that the makings of a joint South/North America juggernaut is emerging, with the US, Argentina and Canada {if the conservative party gains power.}

Should be enough to solidify the Americas against the world.

Good.  I hope a few other countries follow.  What good exactly did the WHO do during COVID?  They lied.  Pure and simple, they lied.

I sure wish we could finally find out which one actually got the Covid shirts that were demanding us get it.

The staged show of Biden getting injections did not prove anything as I am convinced it was not the shot but theater

They KNEW it was not effective and potentially deadly as it was always just a Temporary vaccine
