2020年，时任美国总统特朗普宣布美国将退出世界卫生组织（WHO），理由包括世卫组织在新冠疫情初期应对不力、过度依赖中国信息以及管理不善等。对此，世卫组织总干事谭德塞博士明确回应称，美方提出的退出理由与事实不符。他强调，世卫组织始终秉持科学、透明和中立的原则开展工作，在疫情暴发初期即迅速向全球发出警报，并持续协调各国防控措施。谭德塞指出，美国作为世卫组织长期重要成员和最大资金捐助国之一，其退出不仅削弱了全球公共卫生合作，也损害了自身在国际卫生事务中的影响力。他呼吁各国加强团结，共同应对全球健康挑战，而非单方面指责或退出多边机制。最终，拜登政府于2021年1月上任后立即撤销了退出决定，美国重新加入世卫组织，彰显了多边合作在全球危机中的不可替代性。
In 2020, then-U.S. President Donald Trump announced the United States’ withdrawal from the World Health Organization (WHO), citing reasons such as WHO’s inadequate early response to the COVID-19 pandemic, excessive reliance on information from China, and mismanagement. In response, WHO Director-General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus firmly stated that the U.S. justification for withdrawal was factually inaccurate. He emphasized that WHO had consistently operated based on scientific evidence, transparency, and neutrality—issuing global alerts promptly at the onset of the pandemic and continuously coordinating international public health responses. Dr. Tedros noted that the U.S., as one of WHO’s longest-standing members and its largest financial contributor, would not only weaken global health cooperation by withdrawing but also diminish its own influence in international health affairs. He urged nations to strengthen solidarity and collectively address global health challenges rather than resorting to unilateral blame or abandoning multilateral institutions. Ultimately, upon taking office in January 2021, President Joe Biden immediately reversed the decision, and the U.S. rejoined WHO—highlighting the irreplaceable value of multilateral cooperation during global crises.
