You can call him whatever you want to call him, he has taken a decision that he feels will better his nation, the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, where he is the president, he is not the president of Africa, nor the world, pls be clear about that
A very foolish decision where he did not even seek advice.Will cutting WHO's funding stop the fact that America is the worst hit did America not have enough time to prepare but Trump was doing blame game up and down and was taking the virus for a joke.He goofed big time
Anyway other nations will step up and America's influence in the workd would be in the decline if someone does not caution Trump

Listen brother,

Ask yourself how countries are using Chinese currency?

You can't use CHINA to compare USA.

Because most countries use dollars for their international business.

WHO will confess USA by fire by force before USA will starts funding them again.
I get ur point.

Wrong!
America gives WHO $400M. Even China cannot and will not do that.
China gives $40M.

I really need to know why we all assume the WHO should have doubted China's account of this novel virus.

Why should any normal country allow such a virus to spread?
In the history of epidemics and pandemics, no country has ever tried to lie about the spread of a disease and purposefully allowed it to spread all around the world like a wild fire.
So why would the WHO doubt China's account? Africans didn't lie about Ebola or tried to cover it up, Even the same China didn't lie about the SARS virus in 2003 (unless they did lots of cover ups and lies that the world didnt ever discover).
So why would the WHO doubt their account NOW and double check data given to them?
Meanwhile, I'm sure the WHO has an office in China, filled with Chinese people who would only do the bidding of their communist government.
China gave the world a dirty blow, and WHO was also used as a pawn in China's shenanigans.
There should be a code of conduct to be respected amongst governments and every normal person would think global health should be prioritized by all nations, but we only realised too late that China is raving maddd....
Anyway, before I talk too much, why do you blame the WHO?
The WHO is China! It was cofounded by China! The DG was handpicked by the oppressive Communist Chinese regime! He was doing their bidding from day 1. Why rely on info from a govt that muzzled their own doctors and journalists, a govt that has been known to lie about everything even to as small as their GDP growth!!!

Are you aware the Chinese didn't allow CDC to enter China to investigate the situation as early as December last year, are you also aware that doctors were disappearing for trying to warn the world by they Chinese and so on, are you also aware that on the 14 of Jan WHO posted the below tweet?? Open your sense and reason logically.


Amhappy:


The truth is there for all who want to see. Trump down played the virus it is a known fact. WHO does not advice Trump,they advise the whole world. CDC was not given audience by Trump for 70days. He even said democrats where the one attacking him with again now with a virus. Even Buhari was better than Trump on this matter. Blaming WHO was just a plan to absolve himself of the blames but history doesn't forget.

Nigeria has never fully paid for vaccines
We like depending on handouts and doing beggy beggy and receiving alms like cripples hustling on the streets.
Most vaccines and childhood immunizations heavily subsidized.
Atimes, we get lucky when private citizens like Bill Gates try to use their wealth to support us.
Read up a bit on this link regarding financing vaccination in Nigeria

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5745952/

Bill Gates isnt a medical scientist.

Have you not seen his interviews, whereby he is given an advisory role.

The point is that the Bill Gates Foubdation are full of shyte.

They are trying to harm innocent people.

They try to test their vaccines on us.

Does you know what the answer was when a reported asked Bill Gates whether he has taken one vaccine before in his adult life?

Whay was Trump's first reaction to corona virus he said China was transparent and handling the virus well.He later said coronavirus was a hoax and that it was the fault if the democratsYou are the one spilling trash so shut up and learn from that gutter dirty house of yours America's first case was in mid february and on the 21st of february Trump said it was under control that same february he called it a hoax
But yet Americans were still coming from China,Italy,Japan,South korea and others when those countries had cases of the virus at that time and not just China alone.You did not ask any question you just spewed rubbish and stated nonsense even before Trump closed the borders other countries were already doing that
Argue with facts my friend.
Trump restricted travel from China on January 30, and that excluded American citizens in China. He didn't calm the virus a hoax, he called the politicizing of the virus a hoax! Watch the full video. The Democrats criticized his travel restrictions saying it's his racist and xenophobic MO, and that was the politicizing he was talking about.

So he blames the WHO for not dealing with the pandemic quickly and alerting him, yet he wants to put people in danger to boost the economy. He has no regard for the doctors and nurses telling him not to do this. Throw a surgical mask on him and drop him off at any NYC hospital for one day and see how feels after the first hour.

Put people in danger? Oga are you a leech?

Trump doubts China's figures based on its population and the country's initial denial of the health crisis without treatment in 2019. WHO needs to authenticate those figures.
Re: Coronavirus: Trump Is Defunding WHO. "How It Will Affect Africa" by OZAOEKPE(f): 11:01pm On Apr 16, 2020
The America spends half a billion dollars while China contribution to WHO is just less than 55 million dollars, make China lead now abi they are now world power. Google their GDP and see the difference before you sit in your house and be typing what you don't know. Anywhere African they head he go wan make money at the expense of his reputation.

Let Bill Gates and all the member of W.H.O test the vaccines on themselves and their family and when they give us the clear, then maybe we can consider.

Again I ask baby, when did they finish the impeachment hearing and when did he form the taskforce team on Chinese virus?? When did the first case occur in America and the first death occurred??
In 2018 Trump sacked the pandemic response team.
He was forewarned but he was downplaying everything and playing politics.
America had her first case in January 20 and the borders were still open people kept coming in.
What stopped Trump from taking it serious but then he was calling it a hoax and accusing democrats he even tweeted that China was very transparent in handling the disease he commended their effort

Trump messed up and he is a clown

News really travels slowly here.

Trump is annoyed.

Trump needs to place the blame on China.

China in a way deserved it. They lied to WHO. They lied to the whole world. They simply do not want the adverse effect telling the truth will have on their economy. Imagine the whole world closing their borders to China. So China lied. The result is what we see.

Though a lot of people believe Trump got the info earlier and decided to downplay it- you know elections gotta be won.

So, here we are wearing masks, been afraid of a slight cough and social distancing while hunger is dealing with many of the populace.

As it is, someone must pay the price, and to Trump the WHO looks good. After all they told the world there is no risk of human to human interaction.



Trump has many reliable eyes and ears in China. They told him of the severity of the virus, yet he never acted. Rather, he joked on it by calling it "Chinese virus". Hitting hard on WHO is a subtle way of shifting blame and trying to win back Americans. Mind you, election fast approaches

WHO, is really they caused why this CORONAVIRUS circulate in USA too much because they knew that this deadly virus is already in China....
Why can't WHO inform USA or the world to shutdown their borders on time.

To my analysis, WHO is indirectly working with China.

Bill Gates, Obama and Aspirant USA president Joe Biden are against Trump.

All are working so that Trump will not win this up coming Election.....

Trump will surely expose their hidden treasures. I trust Trump....

Between WHO and POTUS who do you think had better/reliable Intel regarding the virus?

How did he mess up I ask again woman?? You've not said where he messed up... The recent polls coming from Americans is that they trust him to handle the situation and they don't trust the media. Learn to be objective babe and stop all these your bias comments. He banned China 29 of January or so but was called xenophobic worldwide, he instituted taskforce team before February while impeachment was going on, the first death recorded was January 25 or so how do you want him to prepare.
