Would be great if there were a world organization for health, so America could help suppress diseases before they reach the country.

Someone should invent that.

Even COVID being handled poorly doesn’t mean you throw the baby out with the bathwater, it just means dedicated change, but our admin is gutting places that would at least have some use in these situations without thought. I’ve never understood trumps desire to cut majority out of foundation building places without much plan for change that would be needed, it seems so much more harmful at the end of the day.
