Time

In a surprise move, Argentina's president has announced the country's withdrawal from the World Health Organization, citing 'profound differences' with the UN agency. This decision comes amid rising tensions between Argentina and the WHO, with the country's government expressing concerns over the agency's handling of global health issues, including the COVID-19 pandemic and public health policy. Argentina's exit from the WHO is expected to have significant implications for global health governance and international cooperation, with potential impacts on public health initiatives and disease prevention strategies. The move may also raise questions about the future of global health leadership and the role of the WHO in addressing global health challenges.
