Elizabeth Warren endorses Joe Biden for president Trump halts WHO funding over coronavirus ‘failure’ UK says it will not halt WHO funding Live global updates See all our coronavirus coverage Support the Guardian’s independent journalism. Make a contribution 2.10pm BST Democratic senator Elizabeth Warren has endorsed Joe Biden’s presidential bid, an announcement that comes a month after Warren suspended her own campaign for the White House. In this moment of crisis, it’s more important than ever that the next president restores Americans’ faith in good, effective government—and I’ve seen Joe Biden help our nation rebuild. Today, I’m proud to endorse @JoeBiden as President of the United States. pic.twitter.com/VrfBtJvFee 2.07pm BST Leaders from around the world have come forward to criticize Trump’s decision to halt funding to the WHO. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said in a statement, “Now is the time for unity and for the international community to work together in solidarity to stop this virus and its shattering consequences.” 1.50pm BST The Downing Street lobby briefing has just finished. And it has emerged that the UK government is refusing to directly criticise Trump’s decision to freeze funding for the World Health Organisation. Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s spokesman said that the UK would continue to support the WHO, but he declined any invitation to say anything critical about Trump’s stance. Asked for the UK’s response to the president’s move, the spokesman said: Our position is that the UK has no plans to stop funding the World Health Organisation which has an important role to play in leading the global health response. Coronavirus is a global challenge and it’s essential that countries work together to tackle this shared threat. I can only set out the UK’s position, and that is that we have no plans to stop funding the World Health Organisation. That is completely the wrong thing to do. There needs to be a global response to this, we should be supporting our global institutions. We’re about to go on and try and get a vaccine, there should be a global effort to get that vaccine and a global plan as to how we roll that out across the world. This is not the time to be retreating and pulling away from global organisations that help roll that out.

Donald Trump’s announcement yesterday that he would cut off US funding to the World Health Organization in the middle of the coronavirus pandemic has sparked outrage, and even some of the president’s allies are not rushing to defend the decision. Halting funding for the World Health Organization during a world health crisis is as dangerous as it sounds. Their work is slowing the spread of COVID-19 and if that work is stopped no other organization can replace them. The world needs @WHO now more than ever. CDC Director weighs in on whether the WHO failed in response to the coronavirus pandemic and if it’s wise to suspend funding during the crisis, telling @GStephanopoulos “I’d like to do the postmortem on this outbreak once we get through it together.” https://t.co/PrZRMwCBwK pic.twitter.com/hCQdzualrU Continue reading…
