Beijing has promised to continue supporting the World Health Organization even after President Donald Trump signed an executive order withdrawing the US.

By withdrawing from the World Health Organization and overhauling aid, Trump's new executive orders endanger Americans and the globe, researchers warn. The move also cedes U.S. power to other nations.

The World Health Organization said in January 2025 that China's reported levels of acute respiratory infections, including those caused by the flu-like virus HMPV, were "within the expected range" for winter.

As part of his blitz of executive orders, President Trump delivered on a promise to withdraw the United States from the World Health Organization. The Trump White House accuses the WHO of mishandling the COVID-19 pandemic and bias toward China.

Public health experts say U.S. withdrawal from the W.H.O. would undermine the nation’s standing as a global health leader and make it harder to fight the next pandemic.

The U.S. has traditionally been the most generous benefactor of the WHO. A Trump executive order to cut ties with the WHO could pose a threat to global public health.

As he signed an executive order, President Donald Trump said that the World Health Organization had "ripped us off."

China on Tuesday vowed to support the World Health Organization after President Donald Trump signed an executive order directing the United States to withdraw from the body, which he has slammed over its handling of the Covid-19 pandemic.

On his first day, President Donald Trump withdrew the U.S. from WHO, a necessary step in putting the health of Americans first.

It’s a mistake for President Trump to order to the United States to leave the World Health Organization. He should reverse course immediately.

A health organization created in the wake of World War II to fight disease across the planet is losing its biggest donor, the United States.
