#COVID19 doesn't discriminate between:
-rich & poor or large & small nations
-nationalities, ethnicities or ideologies
Neither do we. This is a time for all of us to be united in our common struggle against a common threat – a dangerous enemy.

.@WHO is continuing to:
-study the #coronavirus
-learn from many countries about what works & share that information with the world
-train #healthworkers
-bring together experts to exchange knowledge
-provide technical guidance
-ship medical equipment to countries in need

Since the beginning, @WHO has been fighting the #COVID19 pandemic with every ounce of our soul and spirit. We will continue to work with every country and every partner, to serve the people of the world, with a relentless commitment to science, solutions and solidarity.

The 🇺🇸 has been a longstanding & generous friend to @WHO & we hope it will continue to be so. We regret the decision of @realDonaldTrump to order a halt in funding to WHO.
Together, we can improve the health of many of the world’s poorest and most vulnerable people. #COVID19

In due course, @WHO’s performance in tackling the #COVID19 pandemic will be reviewed by the Member States & the independent bodies. This is part of the usual process to ensure transparency, accountability and recommendations for future outbreak responses.
