The US Says No: What's Behind the WHO Health Rules Rejection
About this Episode
WASHINGTON—JULY 18, 2025—U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and Secretary of State Marco Rubio today issued a Joint Statement of formal rejection by the United States of the 2024 International Heath Regulations (IHR) Amendments by the World Health Organization (WHO).
The amended IHR would give the WHO the ability to order global lockdowns, travel restrictions, or any other measures it sees fit to respond to nebulous “potential public health risks.” These regulations are set to become binding if not rejected by July 19, 2025, regardless of the United States’ withdrawal from the WHO.
This week George discusses why the US has rejected the IHR and WHO. He also discusses ideas proposed by the US and Argentina as well as the lawsuit filed against RFKjr regarding his stance on medial products.
