I mean, what other organizations are looking out for developing nations in relation to things like medicine safety? Sure, if you live in a wealthy nation that has much more proficient regulatory authorities overseeing your medical care systems you’re probably better off listening to them over the WHO.

But if you live in a developing nation that doesn’t have the money to support authorities like that and is beholden to sourcing from less than ideal companies, the WHO is generally better than nothing. Do you think it’s actually a bad thing they are making noise about contaminated children’s medicines and working to expose those companies so people less fortunate than us can avoid them?
