The World Health Organization (WHO) is moving to create an international Pandemic Treaty which could impose more restrictive and legally binding pandemic policies among its 194 member nations, essentially given the WHO the power to preempt the national sovereignty of member States, and by implication, the civil liberties and health rights of the world’s citizens. Back in December 2021, the World Health Assembly – the WHO’s 194 member health policy forum – agreed to initiate a global process of drafting a new “pandemic treaty,” building off of the already existing international legal instrument regulating the global spread of disease known as The International Health Regulations (2005) (the “IHR”).
The IHR already acts as a legally binding instrument among all member States with the purpose to:
“[P]revent, protect against, control and provide a public health response to the international spread of disease in ways that are commensurate with and restricted to public health risks, and which avoid unnecessary interference with international traffic and trade.”
Indeed, it was in January 2020, that pursuant to article 12 of the IHR that the WHO Director-General (the “Director-General”) declared that the COVID-19 was a “public health emergency of international concern” (a “PHEIC”), setting off a worldwide tidal wave of highly restrictive government health policies resulting in lockdowns, mandatory masking, social isolation, school and business closings, and eventually culminating in compulsory vaccination, contact tracing and testing, in some populations. This was all the more egregious as pertains the widespread push for mandatory vaccination given that the mRNA technology used in the COVID jabs are highly experimental, having never before been tested in human clinical trials for safety or effectiveness. Their coerced or mandated use therefore violate informed consent given that evidence-based risk/benefit information based on long-term safety trails are not yet available...

More political theater
Luckily, the WHO has proven so trustworthy in all matters for our good.
The Who must have gotten tired of just being a band and branched out into public health.
Any “global health officer” comes around here he/she/it/they will be dealt with in an entirely appropriate manner.
