World Health Organization Policy/Issue

In April of 2020, U.S. President Donald Trump accused the World Health Organization  of  mishandling COVID-19 and halted U.S. funding to the WHO. In May of 2020, he announced that the US would terminate its relationship with the WHO and redirect the funds. Polling found 62% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents saying the organization has done at least a good job in handling the pandemic compared with 28% of Republicans and GOP leaners. 86% of liberal Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents trust information from the WHO at least a fair amount, compared with 27% of conservative Republicans and GOP leaners.
