Is WHO Down Right Now?
The World Health Organization (WHO) is the United Nations agency for global public health, and its website who.int is the main source for disease outbreak updates, travel health guidance, and emergency alerts. When the site goes down, health workers, journalists, and the public lose access to critical information during fast-moving health events. This page tracks live WHO outage reports and current status updates.
If who.int is not loading for you right now, check the graph above for real-time user reports from the last 24 hours. A flat line near zero means the site is running normally, while spikes point to an ongoing WHO website outage.
Is WHO Down for Me or Everyone?
To find out whether WHO is down for everyone or just you, try opening who.int in a different browser or on your phone’s mobile data. If it loads on mobile data but not on Wi-Fi, the problem is likely with your own connection. If it fails everywhere, check the outage graph above: a spike in the last 24 hours confirms a wider WHO disruption.
Why Is Who.int Not Loading?
The most common reason who.int will not load is a temporary server problem, often during major health announcements when global traffic surges. Millions of people checking outbreak news at once can slow the servers or cause timeout errors. Your browser cache may also hold a broken copy of the page, so clearing it usually helps.
Some networks and countries restrict access to certain international sites. If the page loads on mobile data but not on Wi-Fi, your network or internet provider may be blocking it. A VPN can confirm whether the block is regional.
Why Is the WHO Website So Slow?
Slow loading on who.int is usually tied to traffic spikes during emergencies, when the whole world refreshes the same pages. Heavy PDF reports and data dashboards also take longer on weak connections. Try the mobile version of the site, which loads fewer large files.
Why Are WHO Pages Showing Errors?
Error pages on who.int often appear when a specific database or document server behind the site fails, even while the homepage works. If one section errors out, try again in a few minutes. Searching for the same document title through a search engine can surface a cached copy in the meantime.
Why Can’t I Download WHO Reports?
Download failures for WHO publications are commonly caused by interrupted connections on large PDF files. Use a stable Wi-Fi connection and avoid closing the tab mid-download. If the download button does nothing, disable your ad blocker for who.int and try again.
Why Do WHO Pages Fail During Health Emergencies?
During major outbreaks, who.int can receive more traffic in an hour than on a normal day. The servers prioritize core pages, so fact sheets and guidance documents may load while interactive dashboards stall. If you need urgent guidance, the WHO’s social media accounts often post the same key updates.
Regional WHO office sites sometimes stay up when the main domain struggles. If who.int fails completely, try the regional office website for your area, which mirrors the most important alerts and situation reports. Shoppers run the same fallback check on the Wildberries status page when the marketplace will not open at all.

Slow Page Loads
