The WHO called for nations to work together to defeat the coronavirus after Trump's funding threat and said it would seek to fill financing gaps from other donors

The World Health Organization’s director-general expressed regret Wednesday at President Trump’s intent to withhold funding, and said the agency would seek to fill financing gaps from other donors as it battles the coronavirus pandemic.

“For now, our focus, my focus, is on stopping this virus and saving lives,” Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said at a news conference from the United Nations agency’s Geneva headquarters. “WHO is getting on with the job.”

thanks

Treat or trick , he said

Seek from other donors? You are already financed by Bill Gates. You are working for him. You belong to Gates Foundation that wants global vaccinations to every person on earth and you are a part of it. He pays you to push his agenda. He bought you. You have no credibility.

'treat or trick' said DrTedros.

TedrosResign

Any decent person would have quit by now ..this shameless fellow...China's sidekick... continues to sermonise !! DrTedros WHO

They had 1 job and blew it. I’m sure the Clinton Foundation can help out.

Ha ha ha....go ahead! Hasn’t solved a THING.

Tedros Marxist to the core ... now you get it right?

📌

Recall the Harvard Medical Sciences Lanzet report on the WHO response to the Ebola crisis in Africa. I dislike Trump intensely but suspending financing is not so crazy. Timing is bad for sure but tolerating inefficiency and indolence are hardly antidotes for COVID 19.

No worries now Bill Gates can own the WHO

Why did they wait so long to call for unity? Lazy, worthless.

DO THE JOB. GO PRESIDENT TRUMP.

同身邊好多香港人格格不入,太瘋狂了

TaiwanCanHelp not WHO DrTedros out!!!

I hear Bill Gates has a few extra bucks.

Good luck!Great opportunity for Gates and all his billions!

Have fun, WHO.

CrabQueenn 先把貪污抓出來~舔共隱瞞事情~弄清楚~世界捐的錢是照顧世界人民的~不是讓你們亂搞的

Good let other jerks pay for them

Ha! Let’s see!

He meant “work for China”? If WHO was not so biased towards NaziChina, hundreds of thousands people would not die.

Tedros is a CCP whore and must be FIRED investigated, & jailed the WHO can no longer be the source that America relies on for world health accurate reporting, all nations should cease from funding this untrustworthy organization not doing so will be to your citizens detriment

The WHO leadership needs to be replaced. Then funding should be restored as this organization is important.

go and find your master to pay

No money for WHO!

Call Gates

The WHO is COMPLICIT with CHINA in this PANDEMIC!!! Hold them BOTH ACCOUNTABLE!!!! And WHY are the Democrats choosing the WHO and Communist CHINA OVER the United States?

What's about China's transparency on. efforts on the spreading Wuhan coronavirus ?

Have Bill Gates fund the US portion if hes so damn adamant about it. Not US taxpayers who gain nothing from WHO

Trump is causing trouble in the name of America!

Ask your best mate to pay

🤣🤣🤣 narrow gap

This guy looks like a pharmacist at a pill mill

This is worlds biggest threat , so Nations pl come together to assist with d funding gap.

CHO ChinaLiedPeopleDie

More bribes from China

Communist China should pay up the shortfall. Their yes man is in charge & WHO has so far put China’s interests above the rest.

In fact, the United States has been in arrears for a long time

A group of ignorant brainiacs,Who can't understand The truth of things,are really stupid.

Because of The AMERICAN goverment's concealment!AMERICAN virus!!!

Sure, just call socialist Europe, they just love misusing taxpayer money and wire any amount to your useless organization. Good thing: they have ample room to increase the proletariats taxes, they are not near 100 pct yet.

WHO have been played by China. Pandemic was a year ago at least. No alarm until to be certain of not being able to cover it up and limit Eco impact on China. 25% of pop got Covid by now. The lockdown strategy kills more than save at short term if not massive worldwide pop test.

Ask Bill Gates and Xi. Maybe they can you out😆

🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

WHO I think the WHO secretary general means working with china to assist the Chinese dictatorship with even more lies

Who the fudge would donate half a billion $$$ to you!? All rich countries are too busy dealing with the made in China pandemic CCPVirus which you helped to cover up. TedrosResign

What Trump has did is how human beings die out in many science-fiction and movies , He is toooooo selfish.

Trump made mistakes, and WHO pays? Wow, he DOES KNOW everything.

Daily reminder: how things went wrong under the mismanagement of WHO and DrTedros

DrTedros Please find your master Xi to donate and change the name to China health organisation

Business is Business. DrTedros you better make sure MakeChinaPay

Go ask CHINA-CCP, your buddy

More countries should defund WHO. Since they just serve the CCP, they can get all their funding from China.

Good luck with that.

Fuck who

I'm so sorry America elected an idiot.

He has 123,095 supporters I am sure if everyone of them is donating a thousand it may help a bit...

investigatetheWHO investigateTedros DrTedros follow the money... usa potus

China should repay the whole world first

Better ask the CCP, im sure they can fill up the $400 million gap that the US has left them with using funds they made from selling PPEs and masks

Let China pay

Fund us so we can kill more people.

Good

You might want to ask Taiwan... they can help.

China can donate more money. MakeChinaPay

BoscoWo42122490 Sure, you may find China for more funding. 🤪🤪

I vote for Taiwan to form their own health organisation.

😆😆😆 'other donors'... So go get those.

Find China! It is rich and has a massive GDP!

A month or two with no account receipts will do the organization well. He will cleanse her.

Remove this corrupt African who wags his tail for Chinese noodles

Only if Tedros step down.

Yea, like Commie China, WHO they do the bidding of.

They don't need $190 million this year for travel like 2019. They are good

The Wall Street Journal failed to report that Gates owns the WHO. Look at the billions it’s given them. Shame on the WSJ for not telling the entire story.

Don’t worry. I’m sure CCP will gladly help you fill those gaps😂

WHO sucks to be you ChinaLiedPeopleDied

he still has face to ask for funding. haha

WHO as its stands today has become irrelevant. As an US tax payer I want to see money spent for right humanitarian causes & should be managed with unbiased accountabilities. WHO has certainly contributed to the current COVID19 situation that all of us are in😢.

This man needs to be shown the door out. Please pick a real Physician. Thank you.

WHO has terribly failed the world on this one

The withholding of $$$$ should have been done years ago.

China can step up. The OPEC nations can chip in too.

世卫是唯一有能力助全球专业抗疫的国际组织。美国毛子的退出是不负责任和耍赖的表现,这样,美国毛子以一种很黑的做法,逃过世卫组织对美毛子的审查,背后险恶用心,将给全球抗疫造成巨大的负面影响。希望那些由美国毛子养的狗一定要当心他们的狗命。

The director of the WHO is a political quota of China and for promoting the image of that country, I allow in its omission that the virus spread to the whole world. You must answer for that unprecedented damage.

WHO needs to be researched and held accountable. Especially the leadership.

WHO made multiple bad/ malicious decisions which has led to massive death all over the World. And now it is asking the World to cooperate! Fair enough!

f who

The WHO is working for China, ask China to fund it ! The world can only defeat CCPVirus by not working with CCP!

That's what you get for going to bed with the lying chinese

Shame on this who

Hopefully it's an empty threat. Hard to understand, can someone explain? In the meantime:

China has the financial means to fill a large chunk of the gap. After what happened, it is obligated to do more to help WHO and the world. Don’t you think so?

People be like:

Yep of course now that our pipeline of money is dried up.

Irrelevant

MakeChinaPay

WHOLiedPeopleDied ChinaLiedAndPeopleDied

Donald Trump messed up again. Had an opportunity to have WHO accountable now become a political b.s.

This is what we get when a President engages in political theater to shift blame.

You have only job!

Hey traitor go to ur boss China to donate $400M 🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱

They should ask China for the 14,67% of their budget that was coming from the US. They’re useless as well as the UN: Institutions created after WWII that have become bureaucratic, corrupted and no longer relevant.

Ask China 🇨🇳

BillGates your turn

Good luck bro!

UK and EU. It is your turn to announce that you will stop funding WHO.

THE W.H.O. is a “cash cow” for tyrants! In 2018, the WHO spent $192M on first class travel & luxury 5-Star accommodations for their leaders, their wives & their families. That’s more than WHO spent on MALARIA, TUBERCULOSIS & AIDS medications & trtmt. programs COMBINED!!!

Maybe this should be the way forward. All countries should try and limit dependence on countries such as US and China.

Listen. When an organization is responsible for making sure no pandemic breaks out, and then to have this happen to the scale it is now, clearly that org failed big time. No way to dance around that. WHO is not some holy entity beyond criticism

Ask her to donate, she was WHO Director-General, was travelling with first-class, staying at presidential suite during her visit to other countries, using the name of WHO. ~372K for a single travel, actually I don’t think WHO needs more money.

DrTedros Makes Duterte kissing China’s ass look too good. Hey WHO, want your credibility back? Might wanna start with kicking DrTedros out JustSaying

That’s great, other countries can get involved now instead of the US footing the bill all the time

Good - they need to. US is not the world bank anymore.

Are they going to call this the trumpvirus? He likes his name on everything. C'mon, get PPE for everyone who needs it to be safe, and let's be smart about things. Open carefully. Don't expect me to go somewhere unsafe voluntarily.

Fire the President of the WHO. Then funding can be reconsidered

Yep, sure. Got it.

Should have started working together four months ago WHO

Is WHO really helpful to the Wold ? I don't think so .

Just ask CCP

Disdain is the greatest insult to delirious narcissistic Beings such as US president. 👏

When Trump/Russia crime stories were on the news, Trump scapegoated immigrants. Trump BOTCHED the pandemic response so now he's scapegoating the WHO.

The WHO showing off their competence at social distancing

Keep up the good work, WHO! You can do it w/out us! We trust that! Thank you!

Next move is to replace this corrupted Organization with a new one formed by democratic nations WHOLiedPeopleDied

Good! And well they should! We've given enough and China needs to fill the gap from here on until they've matched the amount the US has already given.

NeverTrumpers

Not with that corrupt clown at the helm.

And next news is 'China steps up for WHO' DT fell, as always, into the deep politics. Too short sighted.

Ask money from billionaires, super rich should donate more.

US cut off funds and massive setback for UN as well as WHO. WHO exposed.. Dwell policy brust.

Whatever happened to showing integrity in the first place

CCP puppet DrTedros - The proud 'Black Man' who committed mass genocide in Ethiopia by sterilizing over 2 Million Amhara women. He Is corrupt and unfit to lead WHO. He sold out the World in the name of protecting China. TedrosResign WHOLiedPeopleDied

Good for the WHO! Trump is just doing this to overshadow his mistakes.

No one trust upon WHO.. lost identity..WHO is only responsible for death of million of innocent people.. sell mirrors in the world of blind people.

The WHO failed the international community

WSJ should hire the head of the WHO to be their Editor in Chief, because he’s going to be looking for a new job soon.

The statment of WHO 14th Feb 2020 'hunam -to -human no transmission..Anothger statment 11th march 2020 CoronavirusPandemic . The statment of WHO itself contradictory..WHO misled world ..WHO backs china..WHO failed to prevent COVID19 The UN is white elephant..

Shameful organization, not looking out for the people.

The WHO’s failure is being presented as an either/or fallacy. It’s not the WHO or tragedy. The choice is the WHO or something more effective and better for earth’s population.

A world organization that does and says whatever the highest payer says or wants, is useless

US do the right thing: halt funding WHO which repetitively gave ill advice leading to 2,083,236 infected ppl & 134,610 death bags 4.16, 01:49 GMT Why WHO are given special privileges of getting paid when totally failing its major job of protecting world health?

It’s about time the ROW contributes an equivalent share to global organizations...

THEY NEED TO EXPLAIN THE JANUARY 14 TWEET & CUT THE DISTRACTIONS BS! ✔ WHO Preliminary investigations conducted by the Chinese authorities have found no clear evidence of human-to-human transmission of the novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) identified in Wuhan, China🇨🇳.

We all know the MSM will support the WHO in order to denounce president Trump. But, it’s a WORLDWIDE pandemic with poor results in many countries. WHO’s response is inadequate everywhere. The real question is why the MSM gives the WHO a pass - and even defends them?

Too late for empty words. If you cut your travel budget maybe you could actually do something.

Good, stop picking the pocket of the US

Too all you Trump sympathizers...please return your stimulus check, because you do not agree with socialism. Also any PPE's that are from China are Taiwan return it.

Just ask the big boss for more $$BillGatesPublicEnemy1

Finance gaps after this research? WHO knew?

Except for Taiwan, which kicked the virus’s ass, with zero help from the WHO.

They can just fly coach and check into budget hotels. When you spend more on travel than fighting malaria, aids and tuberculosis(2018), you have no morality.

They should just pick up the phone to Beijing. They're already in their pocket anyway.

President Trump killed two bird with one stone... Cut off WHO funds and its thunderstorms in UN and WHO... President Trump shows mirrors to WHO.. Truth is always bitter.

This guy should be fired and there should be an investigation. Can't believe WHO said there is no human to human transmission, countries should keep their border open and said masks can't help. WHO is accountable for the pandemic

The WHO was a great band.

Open the books, time to reconcile spending.

Scrambling But like Amazon The who has incredibly wealthy donors etc They only care about themselfes&ruined this prestigious Institution!

The same organization that covered it up? Imagine

Have you asked yourself why some countries reacted well to that crisis? There’s only one WHO!!!

‘Nations to work together’ I truly see the hard work from China🙄 No country shd waste their taxpayers’ money on a useless org WHO. Every country has limited money n resources. The more waste on the useless org, the less left on saving human lives.

hahahahahaha.... china happy usa do that....

They better shut their mouth. This is how they helped the world against Covid-19 . Stop funding WHO !

China lied & THOUSANDS DIED!! THE W.H.O. ENABLED THE LIES!!

What did WHO know and when did they know it?

Get the money from China - Fuck him

WHO hoes mad.

Virus is came from China. China has obligations to pay more for WHO.

Hard to take an organization and leader seriously after they appoint Robert Mugabe “Goodwill Ambassador.” I guess Pol Pot was busy.

Why doesn’t he ask WHO’s friend China to pay?

Fire the China butt kisser

great, let china fill in the gap

wall street made money from covid-19, that's why they didn't fund WHO anymore. RichardBurr

Trump to WHO - Your're fired!

More Bill Gates flow?

The WHO isn't anything without making the world better for everyone. By pulling away from US after we said we were going to investigate instead of agreeing and offering full disclosure is an admission of guilt just ask Schiff

They can ask their masters in Beijing for the cash. ChinaLiedPeopleDied WHOLiedPeopleDied defUNd DefundUN

Ask China to fill the gaps, DrTedros had been working hard to lied and covered up for China, it's time for them to pay.

You better resign dude.

This is the man who is leading the WHO: Tedros Adhanom, top leader of the Tigrean People’s Liberation Front, a terrorist organization.

Panick after losing their largest donor

In just world you'd be facing charges. Shut up and resign.

And you are proudly reporting it cause you are fake newa

This a-h*le & d org he represents are the reason why many world leaders took covid lightly at d onset. Why Florence did still organized that now infamous hug a chinese day. Covid is just a flu, not contagious & not lethal to kids my ass.🖕WHO. Go butt lick ur master in d red sq

Right, ask CCP, your Master to pay WHO has done a great job to praise China, time to get the payment disbandWHO

With the exception of Taiwan and Israel.

jack clean up the bots

I call for Tedros to resign, hes merely a commie stooge now!

The WHO failed the world. They need new leadership.

In their eyes, no matter what we do in China is wrong, they are always right, no matter what to make the world yield to him.This really makes me feel bad!

Yep! Suggest WHO can ask China to be the biggest donor! Free from the US!

Worthless Health Organization WHO

We have now recovered and given help to other countries who, on the one hand, stigmatize our products and incite other countries to hate China, on the other hand, secretly buy them.We are trying our best to help eradicate the epidemic, but they are jealous of us.

Good luck finding other countries to fill that large of a gap.

Says those responsible for the spread to begin with...the cat is already out of the bag morons. And you knew who, what, when, where and why before hand. That by the lowest of measures is called incompetence.

I bet this is why these Nations are upset with President Trump! Nobody wants to pay!

Dr Tedros can ask China to pay more then. WHO is now a Pro-China org who put politics over saving lives, time for China to pay its bill.

Butt cheeks tightening DrTedros ? Don’t take USA for granted! You owe the world a big apology and then we lope you’re head

The WHO told us the virus could not be transmitted between people. They LIED for China.

That's what the U.S. government is doing. When we started the outbreak in China, it was still sanctioning our economy.When we had an outbreak in the United States, they blamed us, and we were so sick that we couldn't help them, they said we were selfish.

Remember when WHO said masculinity was a mental illness

just ask your mentor China which is earning billions due to deadly Wuhan chinese corona virus spreading world wide

ChinaLiedPeopleDied WHOLiedPeopleDied

Money for what? Tell us not to close borders? Too late.

WHO should become a department of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). So it should be funded fully by CCP. There is no reason for a department of CCP to be supported by the tax money of US citizens.

Bill Gates will have to pony up another 30 million +

Good! Problem solved!

The league of nations was taken over by german influenced nations and governments (austria, sweden). The US did nothing and germany fucked shit up. Is the same with china and is not just at WHO (4 years ago mugabe was a goodwill ambassador) but the UN.

Ask China to pay for it

Another with better leadership skills than impotus; come to think of it, practically everyone has better leadership skills than impotus. 25the45 TrumpIsACompleteFailure TrumpOwnsEveryDeath TrumpCreatedThisCrisis

Look you have a guy that covered up Cholera epidemics in his country repeatedly; why would anyone else (except for China) donate to this front for eugenics.

I’m a Democrat. Tedros should be fired. The WHO is a good organization with many fine people. However, Tedros called pandemic a month too late. To this day, the WHO website says if you’re healthy, you don’t need a mask and stay 1 meter (3’) from others.

Fk off

Did he asked China to give more money? When will he resign? Will WHO disclose all documents about WuhanVirus? Will WHO not being Winnie Happy Organisation? WHO isn't doing it's job, y fund to them? Taiwan did well without WHO, then y still need WHO?
