I am sure that to many people, some of whom are very likely to be members of this list, the WHO is nothing but another cog in the wheel of the anti-American organization known as the United Nations that should be thrown out of this country because too many of its member states do not agree with a lot of what our government is doing around the world, especially in terms of our pervasive military presence. These same folks will dismiss anything that the WHO says just as quickly as you or I may dismiss some findings of the Cato Institute or other institutions of a similar bent. Searching the internet with my computer seems to verify that according to an apparently overwhelming majority of entities that evaluate medical systems around the world, the system in the United States is generally not nearly as good as a number of others, and given that we claim to be the most powerful and richest nation on earth, is thus particularly pathetic in light of our available resources.
