The current director ISN'T EVEN A DOCTOR. He's old guard politician for the Ethiopian government. He covered up THREE cholera outbreaks that killed a lot of people in his country.
China hold over a quarter of Ethiopian debt. They also only give aid to countries that do what they say and vote as they want in the UN (countries that don't lose billions in investment -- a huge amount of money for small, impoverished countries in Africa).
- ryanwaggoner 7y agoHe's not an MD, but he is a doctor. He has a doctorate in community health, a masters in immunology of infectious diseases, and a bachelors in biology. Is there a specific reason to think that a "microbiologist and internationally recognized malaria researcher" with a doctorate in community health will naturally perform much worse as WHO director than an MD? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tedros_Adhanom https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tedros_Adhanom
