"If the U.S. withdraws from the WHO, it would severely weaken global health initiatives, disrupt pandemic preparedness efforts, and diminish U.S. influence over international health policy."

"If the United States is no longer a member of WHO, Americans around the world would be more susceptible to disease, but they could also carry it back to the United States and infect multitudes."

"It means we are going to see a lot more disease outbreaks become regional and global, and we will see more disease outbreaks from other countries coming into the U.S."

"The bottom line is that withdrawing from the WHO makes Americans and the world less safe."

"Public health disasters that don't have to happen will happen, because those capacities aren't there anymore [because of the US withdrawal from the WHO]."

"President Trump's decision to withdraw from the WHO could have life-threatening consequences for people in the humanitarian contexts where we work as well as in the US."

Will the US Withdrawal from the WHO Affect Public Health?

Africa CDC warned that the current outbreak, caused by the Bundibugyo virus strain for which no approved vaccine or treatment exists, is three times worse than Uganda's previous Ebola outbreak in 2000 and has killed more than 200 people in its first month.

Contact tracing has reached fewer than 15% of the estimated 17,000 to 35,000 expected contacts, hampered by insecurity, remoteness and displacement in eastern DRC, where conflict has displaced nearly 1 million people in Ituri province alone.

Donors have pledged $910 million to fight the outbreak, including $80 million from African Union member states, but less than $90 million — under 10% — had been released to affected countries as of June 18, according to Africa CDC.

Africa CDC estimates it needs 540 personnel to combat the outbreak but has only 84 deployed. Some experts have linked the outbreak's scale in part to the July 2025 dismantling of USAID, which had previously led U.S. humanitarian and preparedness efforts abroad.

The CDC has more than 125 staff across the DRC and Uganda and is holding twice-weekly calls with health officials in the 11 U.S. cities hosting FIFA World Cup matches to monitor for Ebola and other potential public health threats, including measles and heat-related illness.
