One of the many executive orders that US President Donald Trump signed after being sworn in for another term in office was to withdraw the US from the World Health Organization. He cited the organization’s “mishandling of the COVID-19 pandemic” and “failure to adopt urgently needed reforms” as reasons for the withdrawal.
