The World Health Organization (WHO) on Friday announced it was ending its declaration of COVID-19 as a public health emergency of international concern, more than three years after it was first declared. “For more than a year, the pandemic has been on a downward trend, with population immunity increasing from vaccination and infection, mortality decreasing and the pressure on health systems easing. This trend has allowed most countries to return to life as we knew it before COVID-19,” WHO DIrector-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said in a press briefing Friday.

In a statement, Ben Embarek said he contested the accusation of harassment and was challenging...

The World Health Organization (WHO) on Tuesday (Apr 18) warned the COVID-19 pandemic was still volatile, saying there could be further trouble before the virus settles into a predictable pattern. In the last 28 days, more than 23,000 deaths and three million new cases have been reported to the WHO, in the context of much-reduced testing. While the numbers are decreasing, "that's still a lot of people dying and that's still a lot of people getting sick", WHO emergencies director Michael Ryan told a press conference. "We don't turn off a pandemic switch," said Ryan.

A British MP has warned that a proposed Word Health Organisation (WHO) treaty on pandemic prevention and preparedness represents “an assault on our freedoms” and would create a “vast public health surveillance mechanism.” On Monday, MPs debated whether the government should hold a referendum on the UK’s involvement in the WHO pandemic treaty (pdf). The debate was prompted by a petition on the subject that gathered over 156,000 signatures. In 2021, global leaders made “an urgent call” for an international pandemic treaty that was co-signed by former Prime Minister Boris Johnson. The WHO said that such a measure would signal...

The World Health Organization and United Nations instruct all kindergartens and elementary schools worldwide to teach toddlers masturbation, and tell young children to use pornography. School posters are widely distributed that encourage children to engage in homosexual activities with their classmates, and books are recommended that tell little kids about oral sex. In this evidence report we provide conclusive evidence that this is part of an international operation to normalize pedophilia.

"The World Health Organization (WHO) is a supranational United Nations agency that is effectively controlled by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), as evidenced, among other things, by the manner in which the WHO’s Director-General, Dr. Tedros Ghebreyesus, has relentlessly accomplished Beijing’s bidding. That includes advancing the CCP’s interest in bringing about a post-Constitutional-America and “global governance” dominated by the Party. The CCP’s hegemonic ambitions have no place for a powerful United States of America, human freedom or personal sovereignty." The WHO is, moreover, underwritten and malignly influenced by other hostile special interests, including Bill Gates and Big Pharma..." "...For all...

In July 2022 the Biden regime was pushing an amendment to the agreement with the WHO that would give the WHO power over the US when pandemics occur. This agreement would prevent Americans from doing anything that the World government didn’t want to be done and would in essence take away all rights of Americans in an emergency like COVID. Fortunately, this effort was stopped last year. But now the Biden Administration is back at it and pushing for this insane action to destroy Americans’ rights once and for all. The Biden regime publicly affirmed their commitment to a...

The United States has been accused of supporting a ‘Veil of Secrecy’ over the negotiations regarding the WHO CA+. NGOs and activists have called out the United States for siding with China to exclude the public from seeing drafts of the pandemic accord as it is being negotiated by World Health Organization (WHO) member states. The letter arises from China and US opposition to a proposal by the European Union (EU) that “all inputs and additions to the zero draft should be available to all stakeholders”, which was made during the fourth meeting of the WHO’s Intergovernmental Negotiating Body (INB)...
