ملخص المقالة :
The World Health Organization was founded in 1948, but its history goes back to the middle of the 19th century. The basis of this background was the need to fight epidemics that transcend the borders of countries. However, the financial and technical opportunities needed to achieve their goals and the cooperation of the member countries were not always at the optimal level and are not. Experience has shown that half of the financial resources include voluntary contributions for specific programs, but the organization refuses to develop a binding legal rule regarding them. Covid 19 acts according to the guidelines and guidelines of the World Health Organization. It should be noted that despite all the problems and some mistakes, the organization managed this process correctly with the experience gained from previous epidemics. However, time will tell whether the World Health Organization and member states can make reforms regarding the structure and how to adapt their regulations to the new global order in the field of health.
