President Donald Trump’s decision to exit the World Health Organization means the U.N. agency is losing its biggest funder.

President Donald Trump said he was open to potentially rejoining the World Health Organization (WHO), just days after signing an executive order withdrawing the U.S. from participating.

More than half of Americans believe the U.S. benefits from its membership in the WHO. As of April 2024, 25% of U.S. adults say the country benefits a great deal from its membership, while about one third say it benefits a fair amount. Conversely, 38% say the U.S. does not benefit much or at all from WHO membership.
