Members of the World Health Organization have reached an accord "in principle" over how to tackle future pandemics after three years of discussions, the co-chair of the negotiating body told Agence France-Presse on Saturday.
The WHO did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
The organisation's 194 member states have been negotiating over an agreement that could increase collaboration before and during pandemics after acknowledged failures during COVID-19.
The United States, which was slow to join the early talks, left the discussions this year after President Donald Trump issued an executive order in February withdrawing from the WHO and barring participation in the talks.
