Love California!

​A few days ago, I remarked upon my fears for the US leaving the WHO and its ramifications. I’m relieved to see California step up as the Trump administration pulls the U.S. out of the World Health Organization. This isn’t political theater, it’s practical public health.



By joining WHO, California keeps access to early outbreak warnings, shared data, and international expertise that help detect and stop threats before they reach our clinics and hospitals. Diseases don’t stop at borders, and pretending otherwise doesn’t protect patients.



When federal leadership chose withdrawal over reform, it weakened preparedness. California’s move helps close that gap — protecting 40 million residents with science, collaboration, and foresight.



This is what responsible health policy looks like!
