Argentina formally exits WHO, following US withdrawal earlier this year
Argentina has officially exited the World Health Organization, following a year-long announcement by President Javier Milei's administration. Citing the WHO's alleged mishandling of the Covid-19 pandemic and political motivations over science, Buenos Aires has completed its withdrawal. This move mirrors the United States' earlier departure and raises concerns about global health coordination.
