World Health Organization says US withdrawal makes the nation and the world ‘less safe’
The World Health Organization on Saturday warned that America’s withdrawal from the agency will make the country and the world “less safe.”

“We hope that in the future, the United States will return to active participation in WHO,” the statement noted.
