These actions include the withdrawal from the World Health Organization (WHO), a pause in foreign assistance, a halt to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) communications, and restrictions on National Institutes of Health (NIH) operations, among others. The full ramifications of these actions are still unfolding, with numerous legal interpretations and challenges anticipated. In our dedication to supporting our members, we have begun to gather initial insights and are actively working to understand this evolving landscape.
