The World Health Organization

World Health Organization: Canada appears to have used a loophole a rather large one to justify to the World Health Organization its decision to stop issuing visas to residents and nationals of Ebola-affected countries, according to The Chronicle Herald. International health law experts have said Canadas policy, announced Oct. 31, is a violation of the International Health Regulations, known as the IHR. That treaty stipulates that in a global public health emergency, countries shouldnt take actions that impede international trade or travel beyond what the World Health Organization has recommended and The global health agency says Canadas new policy contravenes the spirit if not the letter of the International Health Regulations, but there is nothing the WHO can do about it.
