I still don’t understand how the Administration can modify a treaty without going to the Senate for the changes to be ratified. Its not the same treaty that was once approved. Therefore, I won’t recognize it as law and will not obey their dictates.

You're right - you can't amend a treaty to impose new binding obligations on the U.S. without ratifying that revised treaty.

Anyway, the overall analysis in the in the article either unintentionally poor, or deliberately sensationalized. It's no big deal if some international group is given the power to "declare" that there is a pandemic, unless that determination itself automatically creates binding obligations on U.S. citizens, and the article glosses over that.
