Once again, China demonstrating that it gives a fuck about humanity. Wish we could see that in the west.

I mean, where do you think the rest of the WHO's funding comes from.

$500m over 5 years isn't even that much for the world's second biggest economy, that barely breaks them into the top 10 funders. Certainly welcome given Trump's withdrawal but back when the US was lead by marginally sane people, it was providing twice that amount every year.

Well, who are they donating the money to? Don't leave us in suspense like that.
