US President Donald Trump orders freeze on funding for World Health Organization

US President Donald Trump addresses the daily coronavirus task force briefing in the Rose Garden at the White House in Washington, US, April 14, 2020.

Funding would be frozen pending a review into the WHO's role in "severely mismanaging and covering up the spread of the coronavirus", said Trump, who accused the Geneva-based body of putting "political correctness above life-saving measures". Nevertheless, Trump vowed to reboot large sections of the world's top economy "very soon", saying the US would reopen "in beautiful little pieces", with the hardest-hit areas, such as New York, taking slightly longer.

The shutdown is costing the US economy perhaps $25 billion a day in lost output, St Louis Federal Reserve President James Bullard said, calling for widespread testing and risk-management strategies so the economy can restart. Spain has allowed work to restart in some factories and construction sites, Denmark opened schools on Wednesday after a month-long closure while Germany was expected to ease some lockdown measures.
