Now why am I not surprised?
I recall a story on TV a few years ago where the UN needed a vaccine for a fairly "common" disease (IIRC, it was the flu) that had started to spread in a country in Africa. The US Army had a lot of the vaccine stockpiled in Europe and offered it to the UN. The local UN chief refused the vaccine because he did not have proof of its effectiveness - the Army had used the vaccine for nearly 30 years.
