WHO Seeks $1 Billion Funding Boost from International Governments
Breitbart - Politics ^ | 4-10-2020 | Simon Kent

Posted on 04/10/2020 6:52:42 AM PDT by Sir Napsalot

The World Health Organisation (WHO) announced Thursday it is ready to launch an appeal for more than $US1 billion to underwrite operations against the Chinese coronavirus pandemic.

WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus believes the pandemic needs a whole-of government and society response, and to that end is seeking a new funding lifeline outside its existing United Nations funding stream.

It follows a similar WHO call in February which sought $675 million in “special, one-off funding” to deliver two months worth of direct aid to China and international agencies.

Now it is back again and asking for more.

“For the past 100 days, our unwavering commitment has been to serve all people of the world with equity, objectivity and neutrality. That will continue to be our sole focus in the days, weeks and months ahead,” Dr Tedros said.

The appeal and strategy plan will commence in coming days, Reuters reports.

The WHO appeal for funding came within 24-hours of Consumer Choice Center, a global consumer advocacy group, launching its own campaign to defund it.

“President Trump’s decision speaks to the larger inefficiencies and issues of transparency and accountability that have plagued the World Health Organization in recent years,” Yaël Ossowski, deputy director at the Consumer Choice Center, said in a statement he distributed to the press.

“While the failures of the WHO have only recently gotten publicity, this has been a long time coming,” Ossowski said.

The US really needs to stop funding any and all of these NGOs. Kick the UN out. Defund World Bank, IMF, WHO — everybody.

Special adviser to the director-general of the World Health Organization (WHO), Dr Ezekiel Emanuel

https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/11055506/world-health-organization-official-lashes-out-at-donald-trumps-incoherent-ignorant-coronavirus-response/

A TOP WHO adviser has claimed Trump made “ignorant” and “incoherent” remarks during a news conference detailing the administration’s response to the coronavirus outbreak.

Special adviser to the director-general of the World Health Organization (WHO), Dr Ezekiel Emanuel - a key figure in the creation of the controversial ObamaCare program, claimed on left-leaning MSNBC’s Hardball that Trump’s comments indicated how little the president knew about public health.

Ezekiel Emanuel, MD, PhD, Leave of Absence as Chair of Medical Ethics & Health Policy
May 29, 2019

During his leave of absence from his chair role, Zeke will work with colleagues to launch the Health Transformation Institute (HTI) in the department, a new initiative aimed at increasing the value of the U.S. healthcare system through new innovations designed to improve quality, affordability and the patient experience.

Zeke will also be taking on a role as Senior Advisor to the Director General of the World Health Organization, an opportunity in which he will provide direction for the organization’s Universal Health Care initiative, particularly in the areas of screening and care for cancer in low-income countries and its medical ethics program. He will also help devise strategy for the WHO Academy, a training initiative for 10 million public health professionals across the globe.

Most if not all of that money they seek will end up in the pockets of those perfumed princes and princesses at WHO.

Typical of a bloated bureaucracy to demand more money and at the same time disrespect the US who funds your bureaucracy.

Give us money and we’ll make this go away?

BS. Your incompetence got us into this in the first place.

No cures.
No treatment.
Not even accurate science tracking.

No - no money for you.

“who and un” sounds like a comedy routine, or name of a rock band.

The audacity. Not happening, and if Trump does not halt US monies going to WHO, he deserves a swift hard kick in the arse.
