On this #WorldHealthDay, we recommit ourselves to building a fairer, healthier world by cooperating with other nations. President Biden rejoined the @WHO because he recognizes that we must work together to address #COVID19 and other global health issues.

At its best, I know the United Nations to be a place where countries coordinate a global response to crises like COVID-19 and climate change, stand together to defend universal human rights, and uphold the rules-based order that maintains stability and security. And at our best, American leadership at the UN helps make all these things happen.
