The False Claims Of WHO’s Pandemic Agreement<\/span><\/p>\n

One way to determine whether a suggestion is worth following is to look at the evidence presented to support it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

If the evidence makes sense and smells real, then perhaps the program you are asked to sign up for is worthy of consideration.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

However, if the whole scheme is sold on fallacies that a child could poke a stick through, and its chief proponents cannot possibly believe their own rhetoric, then only a fool would go much further. <\/strong>This is obvious \u2013 you don\u2019t buy a used car on a salesman\u2019s insistence that there is no other way to get from your kitchen to your bathroom.<\/p>\n

Delegates at the coming\u00a0World Health Assembly<\/a>\u00a0in Geneva are faced with such a choice. In this case, the car salesman is the World Health Organization (WHO), an organization still commanding considerable global respect based on a legacy of sane and solid work some decades ago.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It also benefits from a persistent misunderstanding that large international organizations would not intentionally lie (they increasingly do, as noted below). The delegates will be voting on the recently\u00a0completed text<\/a>\u00a0of the\u00a0Pandemic Agreement<\/a>, part of a broad effort to extract large profits and salaries from an intrinsic human fear of rare causes of death. Fear and confusion distract human minds from rational behavior.<\/p>\n

WHO Likes a Good Story?<\/h2>\n

The Pandemic Agreement, and the international pandemic agenda it is intended to support, are based on a series of demonstrably false claims:<\/p>\n

There is evidence of a rising risk of severe naturally occurring pandemics due to a rapid (exponential<\/a>) increase in infectious disease outbreaks\u00a0<\/p>\n

A massive return on financial investment is expected from diverting large resources to prepare for, prevent, or combat these<\/p>\n

The Covid-19 outbreak was probably of natural origin, and serves as an example of unavoidable health and financial costs we will incur again if we don\u2019t act now.<\/p>\n

If any of these were false, then the basis on which the WHO and its backers have argued for the Pandemic Agreement is fundamentally flawed. And all of them can be shown to be false. However, influential people and organizations want pandemics to be the main focus of public health. The WHO supports this because it is paid to.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The private sector invested heavily in vaccines, and a few countries with large vaccine and biotech industries now direct most of the WHO\u2019s work through\u00a0specified funding<\/a>. The WHO is obligated to deliver what these interests direct it to.<\/p>\n

The WHO was once independent and able to concentrate on health priorities \u2013 back when they prioritized the main drivers of sickness and premature mortality and gained the reputation they now trade from. In today\u2019s corporatized public health, population-based approaches have lost value, and the aspirations of the World Economic Forum hold more sway than those dying before sixty.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Success in the health commodities business is about\u00a0enlarging markets<\/a>, not reducing the need for intervention. The WHO and its reputation are useful tools to sanitize this. Colonialism, as ever, needs to appear altruistic.<\/p>\n

Truth Is Less Compelling Than Fiction<\/h2>\n

So, to address these fallacies. Infectious disease mortality has\u00a0steadily declined<\/a>\u00a0over the\u00a0past century<\/a>\u00a0despite a minor Covid blip that took us back just a decade. This blip includes the virus, but also the avoidable imposition of poverty, unemployment, reduced healthcare access, and other factors that the WHO had previously\u00a0warned against<\/a>, but recently actively promoted.\u00a0<\/p>\n

To get around this reality of decreasing mortality, the WHO uses a hypothetical disease (Disease X<\/a>), a placeholder for something that has not happened since the Spanish flu in the pre-antibiotic era. The huge Medieval pandemics such as the Black Death were mostly bacterial in origin, as were probably most\u00a0Spanish flu deaths<\/a>. With antibiotics, sewers, and better food, we now\u00a0live longer<\/a>\u00a0and don\u2019t expect such mortality events, but the WHO uses this threat regardless.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Thus, the WHO has been reduced to misrepresenting\u00a0fragile evidence<\/a>\u00a0(e.g.\u00a0ignoring<\/a>\u00a0technology developments that can explain rising\u00a0reports\u00a0<\/em>of outbreaks) and opinion pieces by\u00a0sponsored panels<\/a>\u00a0in order to support the narrative of rapidly rising pandemic risk. <\/strong>Even Covid-19 is getting harder to use. If, as appears most likely, it was an inevitable result of\u00a0laboratory manipulation<\/a>, then it no longer even serves as an outlier. The WHO\u2019s pandemic agenda is squarely targeted at natural outbreaks; hence the need for \u201cDisease X\u201d.<\/p>\n

The WHO (and the World Bank) follow a\u00a0similar approach<\/a>\u00a0in inflating financial Return on Investment (ROI). If you received an email promoting over 300 to 700 times return on a proposed investment, some may be impressed but sensible people would suspect something amiss. But this is what the Group of Twenty (G20) secretariat\u00a0told its members<\/a>\u00a0in 2022 for return on investment on the WHO\u2019s pandemic preparedness proposals.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The WHO and the World Bank\u00a0provided<\/a>\u00a0the graphic below to the same G20 meeting to support such astronomical predictions. It is essentially subterfuge; a fantasy to mislead readers such as politicians who are too busy, and trusting, to dig deeper. As these agencies are intended to serve countries rather than fool them, this sort of behavior, which is\u00a0recurrent<\/a>, should call into question their very existence.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

A virus like SARS-CoV-2 (causing Covid-19) that mostly targets the sick elderly with an overall infectious mortality rate of\u00a0about 0.15%<\/a>\u00a0will not\u00a0cost $9 trillion<\/a>\u00a0unless panicked or greedy people choose to close down the world\u2019s supply lines, implement mass unemployment, and then print money for multi-trillion-dollar stimulus packages. In contrast, diseases that regularly kill more and much younger people, like tuberculosis, malaria, and HIV\/AIDS, cost far more than $22 billion a year in contrast.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A\u00a02021\u00a0Lancet<\/em>\u00a0article<\/a>\u00a0put tuberculosis losses alone at $580 billion\/year in 2018.\u00a0Malaria<\/a>\u00a0kills over 600,000 children annually, and HIV\/AIDS results in similar numbers of deaths. These deaths of current and future productive workers, leaving orphaned children, cost countries. Once, they were the WHO\u2019s main priority.<\/p>\n

Trading on a Fading Reputation<\/h2>\n

In selling the package, the WHO seems to have abandoned any attempt at meaningful dialogue. They still justify the surveillance-lockdown-mass vaccinate model by the\u00a0logic-free claim<\/a>\u00a0that over 14 million lives were saved by Covid vaccines in 2021 (so we all have to do that again). The WHO recorded a little over 3 million Covid-related deaths in the first (vaccine-free) year of the pandemic. For the 14 million \u2018saved\u2019 to be correct, another 17 million would somehow have been due to die in year two, despite\u00a0most people<\/a>\u00a0having\u00a0gained immunity<\/a>\u00a0and many of the most susceptible having already succumbed.<\/p>\n

Such childish claims are meant to shock and confuse rather than educate. People are paid to model such numbers to create narratives, and others are paid to spin them on the WHO websites and elsewhere. An industry worth hundreds of billions of dollars depends on such messaging. Scientific integrity cannot survive in an organization paid to be a mouthpiece.<\/p>\n

As an alternative, the WHO could\u00a0advocate<\/a>\u00a0for investment in areas that promoted longevity in wealthy countries \u2013 sanitation, better diet and living conditions, and access to basic, good medical care.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

This was once the WHO\u2019s priority because it not only greatly reduces mortality from rare pandemic events (most Covid deaths were in people already very unwell), but it also reduces mortality from the big endemic killers such as malaria, tuberculosis, common childhood infections, and many chronic non-communicable diseases. It is, unequivocally, the\u00a0main reason<\/a>\u00a0why mortality from major childhood infectious diseases like measles and Whooping cough plummeted long before mass vaccinations were introduced.<\/p>\n

If we concentrated on strategies that improve general health and resilience, rather than the financial health of the pandemic industrial complex, we could then confidently decide not to wreck the lives of our children and elderly if a pandemic did arise.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Very few people would be at high risk. We could all expect to live longer and healthier lives. The WHO has elected to leave this path, instill mass and unfounded fear, and support a very different paradigm. While the Pandemic Agreement is not essential to it, it is an important part of diverting further funds to this agenda and cementing this corporatist approach into place.<\/p>\n

The United States has done well by\u00a0stepping out<\/a>\u00a0of this mess, but continues to push many of the same fallacies and was instrumental in sowing the mess we now reap. While a few other governments are questioning, it is hard for any politicians to stand with truth when a sponsored media stands squarely elsewhere.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Society is once more\u00a0enslaving itself<\/a>, at the behest of an entitled few, facilitated by international agencies that were set up specifically to guard against this. At the coming World Health Assembly, the\u00a0pandemic fairytale<\/a>\u00a0will almost certainly prevail.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The hope is that a well-deserved erosion of trust will eventually catch up with the global health industry and too few countries will ratify this treaty for it ever to come into force. To fix the underlying problem though and derail the pandemic industry train, we will need to rethink the whole approach to cooperation in international health.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
