US President #Trump suspends support payments to #WHO pending investigation.
I strongly disagree with this. Wait until the world gets a handle on the #COVID-19 outbreak. Besides, even though no one may have known just how big this would become (not even WHO), it was predictable fairly early on that cases could come here and start spreading locally. No one is saying to suspend funding the US government because there weren't enough test kits available and deployed to localities where outbreaks were most likely.

@adcock WHO may need to be taught a lesson, but not when the pandemic is just getting started in the poorer parts of the world. Besides, even when China's numbers appeared to be unrealistically optimistic (as they still do), and WHO seemed to believe what they were told, it was clear that #COVID-19 could escape and run rampant in other countries.

@adcock I agree that there needs to be an investigation ... I'm really only disagreeing with the timing.
