Winds and rain are not the only threat the storm is also jeopardizing the countrys corona virus response and. Are back in Team Training as european football leagues edge towards resuming games following the book this league has returned me take a look at the wind and tell. Im burnt off its good to have you with us u. S. President donald trump is threatening to withdraw the United States from the World Health Organization and permanently end the u. S. Funding in a letter to the director general accuse the w. H. O. Of mishandling the global Coronavirus Response and he demanded changes based on his criticisms. Within 30 days beijing has described trumps comments as a smear campaign. The war of words between donald trump the World Health Organization and china has continued into a 2nd day after the us president threatened to permanently leave it up you hate show on monday basically they have to clean up their act they have to do a better job they have to be much more fair to other countries including the United States so were not going to be involved with them and do a separate trump posted the open letter on twitter stating that if the World Health Organization does not commit to major substantial improvements within the next 30 days i will make my temporary freeze if you notice states funding to the w. H. O. Permanent and reconsider our membership in the organization. Chinas Foreign Ministry criticized the us president threats. The letter tried to mislead the public in this plausible way to slander chinas prevention and control efforts and shark the u. S. Has responsibility for incompetence in its own prevention and control this is futile. Believe the movie. Other. Member states agreed to a comprehensive and independent review of the Global Pandemic response on ways that later jordi mainz fully committed to trying to spot and see accountability and Continuous Improvement we want accountability more than anyone. The review will take place quite at the earliest appropriate moment. Where for more now im joined by Andrew Goldman he is a harvard educated Infectious Disease specialist hes also a member of the German Parliament the bonus time for the business friendly f. T. P. Pardon mr allman its good to have you on the show let me ask you as a medical professional how what grade would you give the work of the w. H. O. I would give it a c. Minus to be honest because a lot of things didnt work very well with the w o h o but we have to see what kind of institutional are going to see if we can help us in a Global Pandemic and i only see the role of the w. H. O. That could help the world to fight this pandemic but that. Is dependent on all countries of the world and its not a threat to the world is actually very helpful but all countries have to Stay Together be show solidarity and work to reform w. H. O. Where you say you give it a c. Minus thats not a very good grade is that because the w. H. O. Is underfunded is it all about money here. Its not only about money but definitely with money it could actually strengthen there are going to zation and if you look at the budget the w. H. O. Its a really very low budget its wed like to compare it here in germany with the great hospital it berlin the cherry take the budget the charity is larger than the w. H. O. And the funding of countries to the show is actually only one 5th of the total budget which is in my opinion 4 its a low and you can only get a Strong Organization if you are strongly funded so you can employ people and get the system running. The w. H. O. Today agreed to conduct an independent review of basically itself and the things that it did during the beginning of this pandemic do you trust the w. H. O. To be able to carry out an impartial investigation into its own work. I think it is the. National organization 1st of all and i trust the w. H. O. That they could actually review their handling of what can be done better but on the other side also all countries have to ask their questions how did they handle this epidemic in their own given country was a Public Health system up to the problems of 19 and i would say even the information that we received last year for the g. P. M. Beat was very clear cut and they said we are not prepared for a pandemic and that 900. 00 x. A give us the proof that we were as a world as a Global Society not prepared for this. And now is the time not only to reform the w. H. O. But we have to review the International Health regulations need urgent implementation and improvement for the future the criticism has been that the w. H. O. Many times has been too lenient with china in order to keep china happy and also to keep that funding coming how do you see that as a doctor do you see the rules being bent for china. When i see is that the w. H. O. Is big a puppet many nations would agree to that point i think its not appropriate that china says that taiwan cannot participate in w. H. O. I also would say its not appropriate of the United States to say that the w. H. O. Is not doing their work thats why you are not working together with them anymore i think we have to realize that health is a global issue its for every person on this globe and we have to understand with Global Health and the security of Global Health actually it is important for every nation in this world and out of the funder standout Infectious Diseases doesnt recognize borders and we have to really get our stuff together to be stronger as a single nation spouse a Global Society to improve our readiness for the next endemic which could be just around the corner we do not know that yet. Again w h o should be strengthened not be all for any kind of political power play ok and for home and Infectious Disease specialist and a member of the German Parliament mr owen we appreciate your time in your insides thank you thank you for having me.
