Leaders of the Group of 20 (G-20) have issued a joint declaration promoting a global standard on proof of vaccination for international travel and calling for the establishment of “global digital health networks” that build on existing digital COVID-19 vaccine passport schemes.
The joint statement followed the conclusion of the G-20 summit held in Bali, Indonesia, where leaders discussed global challenges and coordinating policies in response, including to future pandemics.
“We acknowledge the importance of shared technical standards and verification methods, under the framework of the IHR (2005), to facilitate seamless international travel, interoperability, and recognizing digital solutions and non-digital solutions, including proof of vaccinations,” the G-20 joint declaration reads.
The International Health Regulations (2005) is an instrument of international law developed under the auspices of the World Health Organization (WHO) that lays down a global framework for responding to the international spread of disease.
The WHO-backed standard, which entered into force in 2007, required countries to strengthen surveillance capacities at border crossings and introduced a series of health documents, including international certificates of vaccination.
Besides acknowledging the utility of the IHR framework, the G-20 leaders said they support ongoing “international dialogue and collaboration on the establishment of trusted global digital health networks as part of the efforts to strengthen prevention and response to future pandemics.”
They added that these global digital health networks should “capitalize and build on the success of the existing standards and digital COVID-19 certificates.”
COVID-19 vaccine passports—and various other forms of digital identity schemes—have been criticized as an invasion of privacy and as having the potential to enable governments and corporations to coerce human behavior by, for instance, denying access to infrastructure or services.
‘Let’s Have a Digital Health Certificate’?
The joint declaration follows recommendations from Indonesia’s Minister of Health Budi Gunadi Sadikin made during a Business 20 (B20) panel held ahead of the G-20 summit.
“Let’s have a digital health certificate acknowledged by WHO—if you have been vaccinated or tested properly—then you can move around,” he said during a panel on Nov. 14.
Sadikin added that the benefit of a global WHO-standardized vaccine passport would be to facilitate international travel.
“So for the next pandemic, instead of stopping the movement of the people 100 percent, which stopped the economy globally, you can still provide some movement of the people,” he added.
Sadikin added that G-20 countries have agreed to such a global digital health certificate and that the idea now is to introduce it as a revision to the IHR framework at the next World Health Assembly, scheduled for May 2023 in Geneva, Switzerland.
In a 132-page document that contains a series of recommendations for the G-20, the B20 urged the widespread adoption of digital documentation of COVID-19 certificates that would be part of a “technology-enabled ‘always-on’ global health infrastructure.”
The World Economic Forum (WEF) said in a February 2022 report (pdf) that vaccine passports serve as a form of digital identity.
In an earlier report (pdf), the WEF said that “digital identity determines what products, services and information we can access—or, conversely, what is closed off to us.”
‘Digital Gulag’
Journalist Nick Corbishley, who writes about economic and political trends in Europe and Latin America, has warned that vaccine passports can lead to the implementation of a global digital identity scheme that will threaten privacy and freedom across the world.
“It’s like this checkpoint society. Wherever you want to go, you have to show your mobile phone, your identity … even if it’s just to go into a supermarket or go into a shop,” he told EpochTV’s “Crossroads” program.
Corbishley described the negative aspects of a global digital identification scheme as a kind of “digital gulag” in which people could be “effectively banished from society.”
“That is a terrifying vision,” he said.
What say you, Winston?
Someone misspelled “SCAM”.
Never comply.
Man proposes, God disposes.
Did Klaus Schwab and his World Economic Forum (WEF) get a few trillions dollars so they could start the World Genocide ?
Along with Digital currency it is the perfect trifecta to enslave us and cull us at will.
They also misspelled "Nuremburg 2" and "crimes against humanity" .
I will not comply.
“ The WHO-backed standard, which entered into force in 2007, required countries to strengthen surveillance capacities at border crossings …”
I feel much better knowing those 4 million illegals SloJo has let into America have all been vaccinated.
Transhumanism is behind this and the vacation push imho

Here’s a hard no.
MOTB -ish
YES ! It opens the door to national and international surveillance
which includes social credit score, compliance to tyrannical mandates, following your purchases , and your political affiliations.
This is just the beginning of government usurpation of personal freedoms and liberties.
The G-20 and the WEF (World Economic Foundation) are elitist organizations whose.. "Camel's nose is under the tent"
Absolutely, I have been hollering about this for many years now. I was “tinfoil hat” and everyone claimed “never happen here”.
Well... Now it is too late to stop that runaway train. We snoozed. Now we just have to figure out how we are going to survive our new reality.
It’s over 5 million
When is someone going to take one for the team and eliminate the WEF threat?
Evil.
And f*** them.
