Join us for a virtual Roundtable discussion with renowned experts to discuss the WHO’s attempt to seize health freedom from citizens around the world and what we can do about it.
The World Health Assembly convenes from May 27 to June 1 to discuss and presumably vote on final amendments to the International Health Regulations (IHR) and the “WHO Pandemic Agreement.” The proposed WHO treaty and IHR amendments gravely threaten our rights and freedoms.
It’s imperative that we shed light on their supposed “mission critical for humanity.” The proposed WHO treaty and IHR amendments gravely threaten our rights and freedoms as they stand to:
In addition to the obvious threat to national autonomy and individual freedoms, the WHO’s Director-General failed to provide member states with the final text of the two treaties in advance, as required.
Instead, the documents are being negotiated right up until the meeting. While it is bad enough that the WHO ignores its own rules, this also means that countries will not have time to study the treaties before they are expected to vote on them.
A recent letter to President Biden signed by 49 U.S. Senators states:
“The WHO’s failure during the COVID-19 pandemic was as total as it was predictable and did lasting harm to our country. The United States cannot afford to ignore this latest WHO inability to perform its most basic function and must insist on comprehensive WHO reforms before even considering amendments to the IHR or any new pandemic related treaty that would increase WHO authority.”
Time is running out. We all need to encourage our state and federal leaders to work to halt this massive power grab, which would turn the WHO into an unelected global governor of health and health information.
Despite the WHO’s catastrophic public health failures during the COVID-19 pandemic, the current U.S. administration has indicated a strong desire to hand over what can only be perceived as dictatorial-level power to the WHO.
State and federal lawmakers must voice their opposition to this massive power grab and assert our 10th Amendment right for states, not the federal government or the WHO, to govern healthcare. Global one-size-fits-all medicine destroys the doctor-patient relationship and robs us of fundamental autonomy over our own bodies. It must be stopped.
The American people deserve to have a say in these important public health decisions that will significantly affect our future — especially in light of the abysmal public health failures during COVID-19.
You can make a difference by spreading the word to as many people as possible.
