We're still untangling the lives of Anthony Fauci with the vaccine. And just yesterday, we have the World Health Organization has declared another global health of a global health emergency of international concern. And if you don't know what I'm talking about, it looks like this. Breaking news coming out of the World Health Organization. The World Health Organization has officially declared M-Pox a global emergency. The World Health Organization has declared a global public health emergency. an outbreak of the MPox virus in Africa.

And that is the highest level of alert for disease outbreak. The WHO has been working on the Mpox outbreak in Africa and raising the alarm that this is something that should concern us all. The situation constitutes a public health emergency of international concern. This is the second time in three years that the WHO has declared Mpox a health emergency.

It did so last time in 2022. It starts with flu-like symptoms and ends with this. This is what M-pox, which used to be called monkeypox, can do. The disease was spread rapidly across Central and East Africa since the start of the year. The initial outbreak was in the Democratic Republic of Congo. More than 500 people have died from the virus and thousands of people have been infected. This is more than 160% increase of cases from the same time last year and nearly a 20% increase in the number of deaths.

It seems a new variant called. called Clade 1B is more virulent and more dangerous. And it's now been detected in neighboring countries, including Burundi, Kenya, Rwanda, Uganda, and the Central African Republic. It is possible to vaccinate against MPox, as happened in previous outbreaks. But these vaccines are not widely available in the DRC, where these children had to rely on their immune systems. We have a vaccine, but we don't have nearly enough vaccine to cover the need in Central Africa.

We would need about 10 million doses, and we're not nearly there. Wow. Oh, God. Is anyone else getting tired of this? I mean, every week, wait a minute, hold on. Bird Blues is not getting it done. Let's go with Monkey Pox. Hey, why don't we try some rebranding while we're at it?

Because that last Monkey Pox thing was a fiasco. Monkey Fear just doesn't seem to go well together. Oh, my God. You'll notice that. So here's the headline, W.HO. is global health emergency over monkeypox outbreak. Wait a minute, that was Reuters, that was 2022. So they're doing this again.

So you notice, like you just mentioned, it's apparently this infectious disease has its own PR department because they changed the name. Now it's Mpox, so they're going with more like a rapper feel, maybe a new rapper. So this is CNN. WHO declares Mpox outbreak. It's a little more clinical sounding,

a global health emergency. But what's interesting about this is, because it happened so close together in 2022, in 2024. I think a lot of people when they saw this are maybe conflating the spread the first time when it happened a couple of years ago. And that was going throughout Europe and America. Not this one. This one is essentially in Africa at this point. And we're going to report more on that. That's kind of the hot spot. And we saw this coming because last week, this was the headline African CDC likely to declare Mpox public emergency next week. And they did that on Tuesday of this week.

And then the next day, Wednesday, you had the W.A. Joe come out in line with that and declare public health emergency. But there's a study. This is a new variant. So they have two clads, clad one, clad one, and this new one is a variant of clad one. And there's a study in nature that was published on this in June. Sustained human outbreak of a new MPXV clad one lineage in Eastern Democratic Republic Congo. It says, of the 108 polymerase chain reaction confirmed M-Fox cases, the median age of individuals was 22, 51.51.9. were female and 29% were sex workers suggesting a potential role for sexual transmission. A percentage of those tested in this study, too, were positive for HIV. So Monkey Box can, or

Mpox can affect anyone, but the WHO says the people that are most at risk are people who have sex with multiple partners, so you have those sex workers and new partners, or men who have sex with men. So let's pause here for a second because that study is talking about HIV positive. HIV, just the quick history science lesson, damages the immune system. So the body cannot fight disease or infection very well. In Africa, there's been really no progress in terms of viral suppression and the prevalence of HIV and gay and bisexual men. And that's not me just pulling that quote out or that fact out.

This is actually the headline, HIV incidence of rates are not decreasing for gay and bisexual men living in Africa. It says rates estimated at 27 times higher than for other men in eastern and southern Africa and 190 times higher than for other men in western and central Africa. So you have this demographic that clearly the WHO says is a concern. They are in Africa. They're suffering, unfortunately, from this infection that does not allow them to fight diseases. So we're seeing these outbreaks there. Are the two related?

I don't know. you know, again, in that study, you have HIV prevalence in that study. So right now, it's contained to Africa just before we went on air. We had this headline. This is the first case of more contagious MPox found outside Africa. This was someone in Sweden. They were in, they became infected in Africa. They were visiting the hotspot, the place where the infections were happening. They became infected. They came back to Sweden. They sought hospital care there. So even the people in Sweden, the infectious disease experts there are saying, look, there's a very, very low incidence rate as far as anybody else in Sweden needs to be concerned about. This happens from time to time when people travel like that and get infected.

So, you know, one of the things I saw in social media when the WHO declared this public health emergency was just in time for the elections, people said, like, here it is. This is the big one. But I mean, you know, if you're some evil genius sitting back there and you're trying to disrupt the U.S. elections, this may not be the best one to pick. I mean, bird flu, we had COVID. Those are respiratory illnesses. This thing is not spreading that fast. It's certain demographics. I mean, as far as for the PR, the pictures look terrible. And I'm sure this is a terrible disease. But, I mean, I really don't think there's at this point, it doesn't seem like there's any threat to the U.S. elections or disruption in the United States economy or anything like that. However, what we do here is we look at coincidences. We take those very seriously. So on the same day, just before the WHO had its press conference, before anybody knew the WHO is going to declare this emergency, you have this headline. Canadian government warns country to prepare for new virus far worse than COVID. Now, it just so happened that their Center for Occupational Health and Safety put out a second

edition for businesses on a continuity plan handbook in case there's another outbreak. So bad timing, probably, but that was one of the headlines. And then, of course, in 2021, you had this tabletop exercise done in Munich in Germany, and this is an exercise scenario portraying a deadly global pandemic involving an unusual strain of monkeypox virus. And they had a couple. Now, in this, in this scenario, this was actually a terrorist releasing this. It was a biolab release purposeful. But they have these, these scenarios. They have move one, move two, move three. And you can see the third one there is really a lot of people, you know, hundreds of millions of people catching this thing. But they have planned for this.

But, you know, at this stage, there's not much alarm going on. It's mostly confined to Africa. So obviously We're going to keep a very close eye on this, but as far as disrupting American economy or elections, it doesn't appear likely at this point. And I really hope I don't have to eat my words on this one because it's a crazy world. Yeah, I hope you don't either. And I, you know, I'll admit I'm skeptical. I'm skeptical of, I mean, it appears to me they will attempt whatever is necessary. You know, with all the work that we've been doing now, it really appears to me the WEF, the WHA, the UN, this global agenda, it's winning around the world.

It is taken hold of Australia. Australia has no power. It's taken hold of the UK. We're watching, you know, the rights of human beings disappearing. We are really the last stronghold here in the United States of America. It is clear that we are annoying these globalists that want a world where whatever they say goes, where anything that it determined to be speech that they don't want out there, that they can have you arrested, they can drag you across borders, that we're a giant global system,

that we don't have our own rights, we don't have our own sovereignty, anyone can be dragged anywhere by a global order. If people do not see that this is what is the goal, now, will it happen? Am I being a conspiracy? There's no. I mean, they're stating all of these things to us publicly. And now we've got to look in our own elections. Is there anyone mirroring these ideas? Are we on the verge of potentially electing anybody that might agree with the perspective of England that you should not be able to share a post or, you know, you could be arrested? Are they saying things like, you know, you don't have a right to free speech when it, you know, makes me feel bad or goes against, you know, the belief system of the government or the CDC? I mean, all of this is already happening. They've already done it.

It's in play. So. And at this point, it seems like any candidate going for office, presidential office in United States should be making a statement this week and saying what's happening in the UK is unfortunate, it's tragic, but we will not implement anything like this in the United States. This should be, you know, I think people are really looking for that. Yeah, held up as a perfect example of the genius and brilliance of our Constitution, our Bill of Rights, our way of life in the United States of America, have no fear. If I'm the leader, our country will never treat you like that. Everybody, every single politician should be taken to the airwaves to make that clear. It's almost crickets out here.

It's almost crickets. All right, Jeffrey, great reporting. Super interesting. Thanks for keeping us on top of this stuff. And once again, folks, if you like what you're, you know, all the reporting Jeffrey is doing, definitely take a look at the informant, get on our newsletter, start getting all the information every way we can get it. you because let's be really clear. At any moment, the wrong person at the wrong time could just say there's a monkeypox outbreak. We have got to get everyone to believe in it. Therefore,

anyone is telling you there's not a real outbreak happening. Shut down their, like, and, you know, Google owns 95% of this world we're in. You know, we're not working right now without some involved in the Google, guaranteed they're a part of what we're doing here. Shut them down. What happens? We may have one last moment. to get you an email as we realize that the Gestapo is moving in, this Gestapo against truth. So I'm serious. Hopefully we never get to that point. The reason for this show is to make sure that we wake up as many people as we possibly can.

But can we all exchange the tools in this community right now? Can we use those tools to make sure that we got each other's backs? Because that's what we're here for. We want to be able to get your back. We want to be able to tell you when we have an inside scoop that something's going down that you know no one in mainstream is going to tell you about.
