As the World Health Organization (WHO) comes under fire for bungling its response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Lady Gaga has praised Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus.
President Trump and others have pointed out WHO’s shortcomings, which include its early statement that human-to-human transmission was not possible.
The WHO was also critical of President Trump’s travel bans, which healthcare experts including Dr. Fauci say have saved an uncountable number of lives in the United States.
Lady Gaga shared her praise of WHO Director Tedros when joining the organization’s daily briefing on Friday, saying, “Dr. Tedros, you’re truly a superstar.”
This comes just days after President Trump announced that the U.S. would be temporarily halting funding to WHO.
