“We thought that Ronnie Reagan had stones, but turns out they were pebbles next to this guy.”

Come on. Don’t be dissin’ Reagan.

OTOH, a temporary funding hold is nothing compared to “. ... bring down that wall.”

Sounds good on paper but when was the last funding payment made and when is the next one due? If they pay once a year it could be 9 months before the WHO even misses the funding.

I still remember saying HELL YES when Reagan used a couple of fighter jets to force down the plane that was carrying the terrorists who shot and threw overboard American Leon Klinghoffer(1985).

14 Apr: NYT: N.Y.C. Death Toll Soars Past 10,000 in Revised Virus Count
The city has added more than 3,700 additional people who were presumed to have died of the coronavirus but had never tested positive.
By J. David Goodman and William K. Rashbaum
New York City, already a world epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak, sharply increased its death toll by more than 3,700 victims on Tuesday, after officials said they were now including people who had never tested positive for the virus but were presumed to have died of it.
The new figures, released by the city’s Health Department, drove up the number of people killed in New York City to more than 10,000, and appeared to increase the overall United States death count by 17 percent to more than 26,000...

And in a city reeling from the overt danger posed by the virus, top health officials said they had identified another grim reality: The outbreak is likely to have also led indirectly to a spike in deaths of New Yorkers who may never have been infected.
Three thousand more people died in New York City between March 11 and April 13 than would have been expected during the same time period in an ordinary year, Dr. Oxiris Barbot, the commissioner of the city Health Department, said in an interview. While these so-called excess deaths were not explicitly linked to the virus, they might not have happened had the outbreak not occurred, in part because it overwhelmed the normal health care system...

But for weeks, the Health Department also had been recording additional deaths tied to the virus, according to two people briefed on the matter. Those cases involved people who were presumed to have been infected because of their symptoms and medical history.
They were not included in the counts given publicly by Mayor Bill de Blasio because no tests had confirmed that the victims had the disease, Covid-19.
Mr. de Blasio decided, after another round of briefings over the weekend, to release the presumptive cases, the people said. Most of the added deaths took place in hospitals, according to the data. Others occurred in nursing homes or other long-term care facilities and in residences...

The C.D.C., in its guidance to local governments, has recommended that cases of “assumed” coronavirus infection be noted on death certificates since before New York City recorded its first death on March 14...

I wondered if he would actually do this. Sometimes when he mentions doing something it’s enough to correct the issues, but WHO came out swinging and that with threats, which was the wrong response.

Lol. How worse can it get? Seems close to the end of the world to me and WHO are partially responsible.
