Hello. Hey, Catherine. Hey, Catherine. Hey, what's up? I don't know. What's up with you? I don't know. What's up with you? I don't know. Are you down today? Am I down? No. I'm average.

Okay.

Average. Okay. You know, as this is settling in as a sort of new reality for a long time and that has made me think a lot about the future of the health care system and how everything is going to change and including the global order.

And you know, you've been hearing our president threatening to withdraw from the

world health organization right which sounds absurd so this week was the

W. H.O's annual meeting or something? Yeah.

And Trump has been sort of threatening to pull funding for them and maybe even like not be a part of the

WHO anymore?

Right, right. It's such a dramatic swing from the US as a global leader in

international aid, both for purposes that are consistent with you know the ethos of our country

and also just because it's good diplomacy and it builds alliances politically to help out

other countries.

I mean this is consistent though with Trump's outlook toward international cooperation

and collaboration though, right?

Right, right.

And here seems a really treacherous time to do that when we're

waiting on, you know, we have these global coalitions like we talked about on

Wednesday to build a vaccine, you know, everyone's trying to build a vaccine.

You know, everyone's trying to get a vaccine

and when we have one, it will be important

that we have allies all over who can share their processes.

Right.
