But if the WHO acts in China's interest and not the health of the world, maybe we should abandon them?
It's more than dancing around political disputes; the WHO acted in a way indistinguishable from Chinese official media.
Their tweets and media have really not aged well.

Who or what would replace it while guaranteeing they are not running into exactly the same problem? The only way around that would be by putting some individual country in charge, but that way you would only bake the bias in by design.
