President Trump saying that he’d consider cutting U.S. funding for the World Health Organization obviously wasn’t met by WHO (or the United Nations) with open arms:
Pushback from #UN and @WHO following yesterday's criticism by @POTUS and threat to cut off funds from the US government.
— Steve Herman (@W7VOA) April 8, 2020
As a matter of fact, here’s what the WHO Director-General had to say about it:
Politicizing the #coronavirus issue should be avoided by countries “if you don’t want to have many more body bags," says @DrTedros.
— Steve Herman (@W7VOA) April 8, 2020
“We will have many body bags in front of us if we don't behave.”
This is how @DrTedros responded when asked to address @realDonaldTrump's criticisms of the @WHO. https://t.co/TorLPf4vz1

Now that’s rich!
But that’s what communist China and The Who did exactly and it resulted in a lot of body bags. https://t.co/NTuuV8bllN

“Hey Google, give me an example of psychological projection.”
That sounds like a threat

Really?! More "body bags" threat.
You parroted China's "no human to human" transmission garbage but get your panties in a bunch over US funding debate.
Go cozy up to Xi some more for da $$$. https://t.co/YQrpXo4KJ9— Tracy (@JustaThought47) April 8, 2020
Oh really, @DrTedros? Body bags? You’re a disgrace. The US shouldn’t give a cent more to the #WHO until you and all other Chinese Communist Party collaborators are removed https://t.co/9bJTUlPGrb

WHO leadership trying to scare people into supporting continued funding after the latest preventable catastrophe is being met with derision.
That sounds like a straight up threat.

Oh I see…pointing out WHO's failure is "politicizing" https://t.co/0baAXfSrdL

Quite a threat from the head of the WHO, an organization that doesn't allow Taiwan to join because of politics. https://t.co/9ycJQ4rvYI
