Meidas Health, Episode 4: Why Trump’s WHO Exit Puts Us All at Risk (Dr. Van Kerkhove)

You know, much of what I do doesn't make headlines because if you prevent an outbreak from happening, there's nothing to actually show for it. Now, we all went through COVID and I was the COVID lead. As an American, I have a very significant leadership role. So proud to have had that in

incredible responsibility with Dr. Tedros and Dr. Mike Ryan, our director general and the lead of our health emergencies program. Incredible men, incredible dedicated people, but more so the people that we work with and we work for. We serve people to keep them safe.

We weren't worried about the interconnectedness so much that we need to deal with now. The pathogens that I deal with don't respect borders. They don't care about any background that you may have, your political affiliation, the color of your skin, how much money you have in the bank.

And what we, in the interconnected world that we live in, where something emerges on one side of the planet, it could be on the other side of the planet within 24 to 48 hours. So what WHO does, and this is not a perfect example, it's not a perfect similarity, but what US CDC does is,

For the U.S., we try to do with every single country across the globe, whether it's improving surveillance, whether it's improving capacities for clinical care, whether it's developing evidence-based guidance to turn data and knowledge into practical advice for leaders, for doctors, for parents. And that matters at the kitchen table because just think of COVID. Take COVID as the example.

How many people no longer sit at that kitchen table? That didn't have to happen. Certainly we were going to have a pandemic because of this pathogen and how it spread and the immunity profile of the globe, but it didn't have to have the impact that it did. It didn't have to kill 20 million plus people.

And the fact that we no longer have people at that kitchen table, maybe not at your immediate kitchen table, but certainly at that Thanksgiving table or that Christmas table, whatever holiday table that you have where you bring people together.
