There’s no official U.S. delegation at this year’s 78th World Health Assembly, but that hasn’t stopped the U.S. from throwing down punches on the World Health Organization at its own gathering.
In a video address on Tuesday shown at the WHA, U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert Kennedy Jr. invited health ministers to join the United States in a “new era of cooperation.”
“We don’t have to suffer the limits of a moribund WHO. Let’s create new institutions or revisit existing institutions that are lean, efficient, transparent, and accountable,” Kennedy said.
