President Trump on Tuesday said his administration would withhold money from the World Health Organization, the branch of the United Nations that handles global public-health matters. Speaking about the WHO.’s response to the new coronavirus, he said, “They could’ve called it months earlier. They would have known. And they should have known. And they probably did know. So we’ll be looking into that very carefully. And we’re going to put a hold on money sent to the WHO.” Later, he said his administration would only “look at ending funding.” He called the organization “China-centric” during the briefing and on Twitter earlier in the day. The WHO declared COVID-19 a public-health emergency on Jan. 30 and a global pandemic on March 11.
