The World Health Organization (WHO) is portrayed as an international health authority actively responding to global public health emergencies, including the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda, which it declared a public health emergency of international concern. WHO has reported over 1,300 excess deaths in Europe due to extreme heatwaves since June 21, 2026, emphasizing that Europe is warming at twice the global average rate. The organization also issued warnings about cancer risks linked to processed meat and recommended lifestyle changes for cancer prevention.
