What we do is we bring countries together to communicate under international law, the international health regulations, to rapidly share information within 24 hours when there's the detection of certain types of pathogens. We, together with experts from around the world, do risk assessments to say, what does this mean for you?

What is the actual potential that this could cause something really bad? And we warn. We warn the world. You don't have eyes and ears in every country. We do in the sense, and I do not mean this from a detective surveillance point of view, but we have this type of reach in countries because we're working with the member states. We are the secretariat of government.

We don't actually have any power to go into countries to do different things. And I think that's really a critical distinction because people don't necessarily know what WHO does, or if they don't, they believe a lot of the misrepresentation and misinformation about us. Countries have sovereign rights. We don't go in and tell anyone what to do. What we do is we develop evidence-based guidance.

actually other sectors as well, to turn that evidence-based guidance into policy, which obviously there's a lot of other factors, economic factors and political factors, acceptance, trust in governments to work with countries to do that. The world needs, we actually often say we're not just WHO, we're not just the World Health Organization, we're the world's health organization.

And I think that helps, you know, to say that we are here. Our only job, our only job is to keep people safe. We have no other motivation. I just want to say one other thing, Vin, is the budget. You know, we mentioned defense. Our budget at WHO is less than one hospital, one hospital in one city in one high-income country. Less than one hospital in New York City, for example.

And so it's not a lot of money. And a lot of people think that the U.S. gives us huge amounts of money, and they do, through assessed contributions, which are dues, which are dues member states pay, but also in a lot of voluntary contribution, which can change. But the amount of money that the U.S. gives to WHO is very tiny in terms of the budget of the U.S. government.
