Put Dr. Michael J. Ryan, Executive Director of the WHO Health Emergencies Program, in charge. Give them another $5 billion (50/50 USA+Canada / Europe). Move Tedros out; he has lost too much public confidence.

So why 50% from US / Canada and not equally shared for all?

I’d be for anything that gets it done, just trying to throw a possible split out there. As a Canadian, suggesting we do more than our fair share.

I've just never understood why some countries "should" be fiscally more responsible for something that's everyone's issue.

Just, imaginably, since the Canadian government is throwing money around to help people get mortgages and so on, it could lead with it. I would prorate with USA to population and go in with the EU 50:50 as a bloc.

I am hoping that individual prep can help fill the gap between an outbreak and the arrival of large scale help. In a large outbreak, no one can expect them to be everywhere at once. Add to that the fact that they ARE under provisioned already and people could be waiting a while

It's the entire picture that disturbs me. Too many mistakes. Too much faulty information and advice. I don't see how most people could have a clear picture of the situation. If you weren't on this thing from the start it's hard to understand. I have been watching and still don't
