2026年1月22日，美國正式結束了其與世界衛生組織(WHO)長達78年的成員關係。
On January 22, 2026, the United States officially ended its 78-year membership with the World Health Organization (WHO).
這項歷史性的退出決定，是繼川普總統於2025年初簽署一項行政命令後所做出的。
This historic withdrawal follows an executive order signed by President Donald Trump in early 2025.
該決定聚焦於幾項核心不滿，包括世衛組織對COVID-19大流行的管理、對政治偏見的擔憂，以及美國政府希望擺脫其視為不公平的財政負擔。
The decision centers on several core grievances, including the WHO’s management of the COVID-19 pandemic, concerns over political bias, and a desire to shift away from what the administration views as an unfair financial burden.
在退出之前，據報導美國尚有2.78億美元的未繳會費。
Before exiting, the U.S. reportedly left behind an outstanding debt of $278 million in unpaid membership dues.
公共衛生專家對於此舉可能造成的後果表達了深切的擔憂。
Public health experts have voiced deep concern regarding the consequences of this move.
透過退出，美國將不再參與用於追蹤疫情爆發和開發疫苗的重要監測網絡。
By pulling out, the U.S. will no longer participate in vital surveillance networks used to track outbreaks and develop vaccines.
此外，作為該組織歷史上最大的捐助國，美國資金的中斷將威脅到全球在愛滋病(HIV/AIDS)、瘧疾和孕產婦健康方面的防治計畫。
Furthermore, as the organization’s historically largest donor, the loss of U.S. funding threatens global programs addressing HIV/AIDS, malaria, and maternal health.
展望未來，該政府計畫優先採取「美國優先」策略，強調直接的雙邊夥伴關係，而非多邊合作。
Moving forward, the administration plans to prioritize an 'America First' strategy, emphasizing direct bilateral partnerships over multilateral cooperation.
批評者認為，這種做法可能會使全球衛生工作碎片化，並導致國際社會在面對未來大流行時準備不足。
Critics argue this approach may fragment global health efforts and leave the international community less prepared for future pandemics.
