Withdrawing the United States from the World Health Organization [White House]

https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/withdrawing-the-united-states-from-the-worldhealth-organization/

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered:

Section 1.

The United States noticed its withdrawal from the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2020 due to the organization’s mishandling of the COVID-19 pandemic that arose out of Wuhan, China,

and other global health crises,

its failure to adopt urgently needed reforms,

and its inability to demonstrate independence from the inappropriate political influence of WHO member states.

In addition, the WHO continues to demand unfairly onerous payments from the United States,

far out of proportion with other countries’ assessed payments.

China, with a population of 1.4 billion, has 300 percent of the population of the United States, yet contributes nearly 90 percent less to the WHO.

Section. 2. Actions

The United States intends to withdraw from the WHO.

The Presidential Letter to the Secretary-General of the United Nations signed on January 20, 2021, that retracted the United States’ July 6, 2020, notification of withdrawal is revoked.

The Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs shall establish directorates and coordinating mechanisms within the National Security Council apparatus as he deems necessary and appropriate to safeguard public health and fortify biosecurity.

The Secretary of State and the Director of the Office of Management and Budget shall take appropriate measures, with all practicable speed, to:

pause the future transfer of any United States Government funds, support, or resources to the WHO;

recall and reassign United States Government personnel or contractors working in any capacity with the WHO

identify credible and transparent United States and international partners to assume necessary activities previously undertaken by the WHO.

Global System Negotiations

While withdrawal is in progress, the Secretary of State will cease negotiations on the WHO Pandemic Agreement and the amendments to the International Health Regulations,

and actions taken to effectuate such agreement and amendments will have no binding force on the United States.

THE WHITE HOUSE, January 20, 2025.
