WaywardSon: Stop making excuses for ineptitude, his critics did not have the amount of classified information at their disposal. When intelligence agencies briefed republican senators about the likelihood of a global pandemic, what did they do? the sold of their stocks instead of alerting his critics and the american public. China has been secretive about everything and the WHO kept reassuring the world that they were dealing with authentic numbers, the United States Funds them and should ask questions. I personally believe the WHO allowed political correctness to dictate their handling of the Covid19 outbreak, rather than stand up to the fact that China was clearly lying about many key details of the Virus outbreak. false. I know that according to trump's supporters, the US pays for passage into heaven (and probably hell also), but in reality The US is not the sole sponsor of WHO. Its contribution is the largest at 14.67%
Um, nope unless any other country can somehow protect EUROPE, Pick up the UNITED NATIONS funding, NATO funding, replace HOLLYWOOD and Have so many Nuclear Allies all over the world that will always be at your beckon and call even when you're clearly the bad guy and can still rain a Sheetload of Freedom from The first and second greatest Air Forces on the Planet. Nope nobody not even china can fill that gap, their navy and influence is purely regional In the same vain, the US does not pick up UN and NATO fundings, its is the largest contributor. Actually it is a well proven fact that China also covered up the SARS Epidemic even misleading the entire world on its severity for a full calendar year. Right now everyone is saying "listen to the experts" these same WHO experts who swallowed China's Lie hook line and sinker? They said that Trump's actions at that time were a bit immature, and did little to help. it is not only the US but other Western countries like France Italy UK and Germany that have been affected, what about the governments of these countries? have they also failed? the simple Answer is NO because I believe they acted based on WHO information which was not relaible when the world needed it to be.When the say experts, it does not mean WHO? We are talking about epidemiologists and virologist like Dr. Fauci. The US has numerous experts in the field of epidemiology and virology. Trump feels he knows better than them all. China will always be an Economic giant but the world is run by treaties and alliances not just money, old alliances last and when the chips are down America always has Institutions and to rely upon for survival, the ICC, Saudi Arabia, Israel, NATO, UNITED NATIONS SECURITY COUNCIL where their closest allies readily rally to support any motionput forward.The treaties that is gradually being dismantled by Trump? Trump disregards the ICC and has a terrible relations with NATO. China is building an allaince (i call axis of evil) with Russia and North Korea. US is also having terrible relations with its neigbours - Mexico and Canada, and its long time allies - France, UK, Germany, even Australia. 1 Like |

Trump pulling US funding will have greater impact on Africa, what a joke, what impact did the US funding have before, the US is the highest donor of any country in any organization in the world. Once again African leaders and those officials jabtalking have shown again that Africa is not even rising a bit from here to there, Africa as a region is retrogressing, there are African countries richer than the whole of Scandinavia, richer than a lot of European countries, but are you seeing those countries jump on the wagon of saying it's gross to halt funding for the WHO. When Africa rely on too much foreign support, this is an example of our Africa will be left behind |

Amujale:Philanthropist work to help collective people by supporting causes NOT INDIVIDUALS. Bill & Melinda Gates foundation has been dolling out money to support health related causes in Africa and the world over. For example, he may not help 'anybody' that you know but he has drilled a Borehole to provide water in some village in Nigeria. That is still philanthropy. Same with Dangote foundation, etc. |

Amhappy: Sorry o sister. Ive modified it. I try but these guys are seriously getting on my nerves. My organization partners with WHO, so I know first hand the impact they have made. Stopping funding right in the middle of the pandemic is a very cruel thing to do. @Bjtinz pls unquote the comment. |

Bill Gates is the second highest sponsor of the WHO. I agree that the WHO has a lot of questions to answer. But, we need all hands on deck to fight this pandemic. We can't start blame games now. Let's fight Covid-19 before you cut off funds or any thing you want to do. Trump also shares part of the blame if we are to be truthful with ourselves. He called the coronavirus an ordinary flu that will disappear in days. He said it was an hoax by the Democrats. He and those Fox News crew downplayed the virus. People had been calling for a lockdown long ago but he shut down when it was late. After shutting down late, he still said he will open America back by Easter even when Bill Gates, the director of the CDC and others said it wasn't feasible. Fox News experts said people should enter airplanes and fly wherever they want since flight tickets are cheap. In 2018, Trump disbanded the pandemic response team created by Obama and struggled to assemble another taskforce within a short time. Here are links to short video compilations of Trump and Fox News statements. https://twitter.com/HelenKennedy/status/1240244818565087232?s=19 https://twitter.com/KFILE/status/1240131226268323842?s=19 Trump is stripping off America of some things that make her a global watchdog, and a country to he reckoned with internationally. But WHO has the largest share of the blame after China. Cutting off their funding during a pandemic isn't right. At least let the pandemic be over. And for those who are celebrating this news thinking that it will make our leaders sit up, you are wrong. Millions will just die for nothing. Our leaders have never cared about us so long as they have access to foreign healthcare. It will affect Africa a lot with no positive effect. 1 Like |

madridguy:/ Isn't it sad that in the global arena, Africa has been turned to a continent that are filled with supposedly humans who cannot survive without the help of other races. The worst part is that African leaders and Africans gladly accepted this stereotype and live as such. It is apparent that others still see Africans as subhumans. A notorious Arab slave trader Mehmet Ali succinctly put it, "you do not need to destroy the black African because he always ends up destroying himself and his people for you." Moving on, the famous Marcus Garvey noted, " having had the wrong education as a start in his racial career, the negro has become his own greatest enemy. Most of the trouble I have had in advancing the cause of the race has come from negroes". Sounds familiar? Listen to the folks parading their degrees on nairaland. They are as useless as they come--no original thought process. Instead they take glory in vomiting the nonsense they have been fed. \ |
