Topic: Topic: The Trump administration’s undermining of public health and its global impacts

Synopsis: Pres. Trump terminated American support for the World Health Organization, closed-down USAID (America’s main international aid organization) and has terminated federal government funding of a wide range of American healthresearch programs. His Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr, has opposed vaccinations and undermined world-respected institutions, such as the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. The global ramifications for public health, including that of Australia, are disastrous.
