That is the effect of what you do. The US has defunded the WHO. Zeynep publishes articles saying why it's a mess. All of your intentions aside, what effect do you think your work has?
My analogy would be he wants to burn the whole thing down, and we should be trying to get better functioning fire extinguishers rather than avoiding talking about the ways they failed. I think leaving the "reform" talk to him is very dangerous—he will destroy it under that cover.

Uhhh, I would just take the fire extinguisher we have. Working with the WHO has worked for most countries in the world. PAHO did well in the Caribbean, they did a lot in Mongolia, in Africa. You're talking about an abstract problem when the WHO has worked for us on the ground.

We have a global fire (the pandemic) that we might have avoided if the fire extinguisher did its job better. I mean, all analogies fail. Plus, someone's trying to destroy it completely & I'm telling you that I think circling the wagon will leave us with no fire extinguisher.
