What is RSS?
WHO news headlines and summary texts are now available via "really simple syndication" (RSS). RSS is a straightforward way for you to keep up-to-date with the latest news from WHO. Every time a news article is published on the WHO web site, you will receive an automatic update without having to visit our site.
What does an RSS feed look like?
Each RSS feed consists of the most recent news stories in summary form. An example of a WHO news release in this format would be as follows:

How does RSS work?
To use RSS on your computer you will need to obtain a program called a news reader, which allows you to collect and display RSS feeds from your chosen web sites. There are many different types of news reader available.
How do I access WHO RSS feeds?
You need to set your news reader to retrieve the RSS feed from the WHO web site. To do this you will need to copy the link to the service you wish to subscribe to.
