> WHO is not a reliable global partner

That's based off of what evidence? When I search for "WHO corruption" I only find conspiracy theory youTube videos and far-right leaning publications that have a leg in that race.

Besides, as was said earlier, this is the equivalent of pulling diplomats out of a country. If corruption is the issue (and I'm not convinced it is) then you'd cut funding. This is a political stunt which is trying to draw attention away from an administrations failed response to a pandemic.

I'm sorry, wasn't the interview with Dr. Bruce Aylward enough to convince you that there's something seriously wrong with the organization's leadership?

No, I see a physician-epidemiologist by training from Newfoundland Canada struggling to manage a global pandemic with two global superpowers in a political arm wrestling match on the global stage when he knows he needs both to cooperate.
