Kennedy Says U.S. Rejects Global Health Goals

The U.S. government has rejected the global health goals set by the World Health Organization (WHO). Alex Azar, the U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services, stated that the U.S. cannot support WHO policies that allegedly promote abortion and "radical gender ideology." This stance represents a significant departure from the U.S. government's previous support for global health initiatives. Azar argued that the WHO's policies do not align with the Trump administration's priorities and values. The decision to reject the WHO's health goals is likely to have far-reaching implications for international cooperation on global health issues. It reflects the current administration's conservative approach to social and reproductive health policies, which could impact the availability of essential healthcare services in various parts of the world.
