I don't know if it's bribery at work here. Rather, it's anger at American behavior over the last decades which is pushing it closer to China. America is the WHO

I don't know if it's bribery at work here. Rather, it's anger at American behavior over the last decades which is pushing it closer to China. America is the WHO's primary superpower sponsor, and protector. In the courtship of a new sponsor, China, it could be just that: stoking anger and offering a choice.
- meowfly 6y agoI don't know either. I think all of this is obviously couched in the fact that the poor initial US response to Coronavirus has made it politically expedient to [make this a story about China] (https://www.foxnews.com/politics/gop-memo-advises-candidates-to-attack-china-over-coronavirus https://www.foxnews.com/politics/gop-memo-advises-candidates...) That doesn't mean the WHO or China have clean hands, just that in an election year for the US my bias would lean towards this being about politics.
