Being out there in Geneva, you know, it just really became clear why we have been on this train, right?
Why we have been so fiercely warning people that this is not just about your childhood vaccines.
This is not just about trying to get into school.
This is about something much, much bigger.
It became really clear that this is the tip of the spear.
And we've been reporting on it from the beginning.
Yeah, great work out there to you and everybody raising awareness at really ground zero.
of the WHO's headquarters there,
but let's look at the WHO's opening ceremony
for this year's health conference that they held there.
This was Tadros.
Here's a video of Tadros, and pay attention to what he says,
because it's really telling.
Check it out.
Okay.
The serious challenge that's posed by anti-vaxxers,
and I think we need to strategize
to really push back because vaccines work.
vaccines affect adults and we have signs, evidence on our side, I think it's time to be more
aggressive in pushing back on anti-vaxxers. I think they use COVID as an opportunity and, you know,
all the havoc they're creating. It's really kind of scary to think that it's time to push back
on anti-vaxters as though all of the censorship of our social media, the attacks from mainstream
press calling us misinformation, trying to label us as domestic terrorists. That didn't quite do it.
It's time to really put the screws to them. You can't even imagine what is going through his mind
when he makes that statement. And these are old talking points. I mean, the COVID response that
he and the WHO really pushed and supercharged and stood behind proves to the world that it's not
as simple as vaccine anti-vax and the safe and effective talking points. These are old
unsupportable talking points. We're going to get into some of the science he talks about that
supports these these vaccines in a second. But let's get into these international health regulations.
So as you said in the in the basically still of the night, they met and passed these amendments to
these international health regulations. And these are legal, legally binding amendment, legally binding
agreement of 196 countries. So the CDC goes by them. These are recommendations. So the W. HO is not
commanding, but everyone is following these recommendations. These countries are following these
recommendations when it comes to pandemic emergencies. So let's look at that moment when they passed it.
This was right at the end of the yearly WHO meeting, and here's Tedros in Ecstasy. Check it out.
All right. You have made history here today in approving a strong package of amendments to the
international health regulations.
you have strengthened the cornerstone of international health law.
In doing so, you have made the world safer.
I have always believed that both the IHR amendments and the pandemic agreement
could be finalized for this Health Assembly.
IHR tick.
And the pandemic agreement is not.
not done yet, but I have no doubt it will be.
I mean, listen to his voice.
He either has COVID or he's been screaming at somebody all day long.
But, you know, one of the things I thought about really is as we were sitting there,
I wanted to walk into the, you know, the Gates Foundation meeting.
I did peek over there.
They were taking a recess, but I wanted to say, you know, you know everyone in the world actually
hates you, that no one, I mean, think about this.
No one is rallying to pass the IHR regulations or the, you know, world health organizations
pandemic treaty.
Like nobody's like, hey, let's get thousands of people together and really just, you know,
support this and put energy by it.
No one in the world is doing that, right?
Can you imagine being a part of these organizations that just somehow accept that we're hated
by the world, but as long as we have the world's leaders, that's all that matters to us
and they're showing up here and they're, you know, signing these documents.
We're good to go. I mean, I can't imagine what it's like to be those people.
Yeah, and it must be easy for those people just to throw all of their failures and all of that hatred onto, well, it's just a group of anti-vaxxers.
Everyone else loves us.
Right.
So let's look at these amendments that are now in here.
One of the biggest things, this is right at the beginning of the document.
This is a document the WHO released on June 1st of this year, obviously, just a couple days ago.
And right at the beginning there, they define what's called a pandemic emergency.
And you can see here it says pandemic emergency
meets a public health emergency of international concern
that is caused by a communicable disease.
And it gives three stipulations, has or is at high risk
of having geographical spread within multiple states.
Next one, high risk of exceeding the capacity of health systems.
And the final one, high risk of causing substantial social
or economic disruption, including disruption
of international traffic and trade.
I love that last one.
I mean, it's as though the virus does that.
You're the people that destroyed our social world.
You're the ones that destroyed our international trade and our business.
The virus didn't do it.
It had never done that before.
But WHO is literally like, if it can do that, it's like, isn't that what the IHR rules are so that we can do that to you?
Amazing.
Exactly.
Exactly.
And so it defines a pandemic emergency.
So who gets to call this?
Who gets to determine, hey, this is high risk.
And we're going to call this for 196 countries.
We're going to declare a pandemic emergency.
Well, it says it right here in the document.
You go down to the next article,
determination of a public health emergency.
It says if the Director General, that's Tadros
or anybody else that fills this position,
determines that an event constitutes public health emergency
of international concern.
The Director General shall further determine,
having considered the matters, containing the paragraph
whether the public health emergency of international concern
also constitutes a pandemic emergency.
So really, unilateral power of that position
of the WHO Director General to call it for the world.
So there's a big problem.
right there because the track record of the WHO isn't the best over the last four years when
calling for lockdowns and things like that and really leading this pandemic response. So now they're in
the driver's seat. But let's look at some other things here. Article 31 talks about what happens
measures relating to entry of travelers. So we saw this during COVID. People that were traveling
to other countries. They were detained. So this is in here as well. It says if there's evidence,
evidence, just evidence of an imminent public health risk, the state party made in accordance with its
national law and to the extent necessary to control such risk, compel the traveler to undergo or
advise the traveler. And it says here, the least invasive or intrusive medical examination
that would achieve the public health objective. Vaccination or other prophylaxis. And then finally,
it says health measures that prevent or control the spread of disease, including isolation,
quarantine, or placing the traveler under public health observation. So remember those hotels.
that people was. I think that's going to be the new definition of jail. Yeah, we remember those hotels
people were stuck in during COVID for weeks and weeks and they couldn't get out even though they're
testing positive or they weren't testing positive, the false PCR tests. This is what this is in this law.
But one of the biggest things it does here is it sets up a financial funding mechanism. It's kind of its own Federal Reserve Bank, if you will, to keep the party going.
And this is in Article 44. It's kind of a subsection of it, but it's called a coordinate.
financial mechanism. And what is it for? It's to promote the sustainable financing to basically
implement these regulations, to develop strength and maintain the core capacities in these regulations.
So that's developed vaccines, just create testing, all of this stuff that's in these regulations
now has financial backing by these member states. So that's a huge part of it. But the good news
is that there's a way out of it. It's very simple. And it's in these international health regulations.
this is Article 61, as a matter of fact.
And if you go to this, it says,
if a state notifies the Director General of its rejection of these regulations
or of an amendment thereto within the period provided in paragraph one of Article 59,
these regulations or the amendment shall not enter into force with respect to that state.
So this is where people can actually have some actions.
Find the delegates that are representing the United States all the way up to Congress and
president pressure them to not adopt this this iHR within this time frame and this is really a really easy
piece to do hopefully people can activate around this one of the people that's been reporting on this
is james rugoski and he has a substack he actually wrote on this it's a very thorough article
it's called the amendments to the iHR have been adopted and you can really go read more about that
in there but that that's this is the reporting that's now coming out of this they kind of backdoor
this it's now implemented but
But anybody, any of these countries that are now legally binding to this agreement can withdraw from them.
They have a time frame.
I also want to state that, I mean, there was a lot of discussion amongst the lawyers out there,
that this is a completely illegal document right now, that they're, the rules state that all of the member states are supposed to have four months to read the language before then ultimately voting on it.
Of course, these changes were made during the, you know, during the last week, as we had predicted, trying to rewrite it.
But signing it and then saying it's now, you know, basically the law or the new rules is totally against their own rules, which is supposed to be four months.
So I know that there's going to be lawsuits around that whole thing.
I want to thank James Rugosky, who has been just doing, I think, some of the best reporting on this.
Definitely check out his substack.
He's been advising us, keeping us abreast of what's going on.
But, you know, it's real, right?
And I would say that one of the scary things is if they'll just change rules, if they'll just throw out.
the four months of, you know, giving you time to read it. I would guess that that little paragraph
for reading was what they put in there to sort of get over all the other member states that were
just not down with it saying, well, if we just say you can opt out at any time, would that work?
Yeah, sign your name here. How long do you think that's going to exist? I'm sure that there's
some way that they just kick it out without a vote or, you know, it's like anything else.
They have just set the ball rolling now, and now it just snowballs. Your freedom slowly gets wrapped
up and taken away. But, you know, look, we're here. People are standing up. We're aware of it.
We're watching, you know, as we've reported states across the United States of America,
Attorney General's, you know, standing up against it. So it's all part of waking up,
and boy, we better get on it quickly. And, you know, people could say, well, what's the big deal?
We just lived through what we were told was the once in a century pandemic, so we're good
for another century, right? Well, these are the ha.
headlines we're seeing right now, as these IHR amendments are in full force, we see three
human cases of bird flu detected in Michigan farm worker says the CDC. This is H5N1. But then interestingly,
yesterday I saw this. This was a press release from the WHO itself. Remember, they have their
shiny new international health regulations that are going to report things right away. And this is
the first case of H5N2. So these are all influenza, basically influenza A. There's just
subtypes of them. So this is the first fatal case in Mexico that's ever been reported now in the
world. And it says here from the WHO itself on 23 May 24, the Mexico IHR NFP, this is the national
focal point, responded to WHO, PAAHO, a confirmed case of human infection with avian influenza
AH5N2 virus detected. Now, from everyone watching over the last four years, see if you can pick
out some of the interesting points in this. Detected in a 59-year-old resident.
of the state of Mexico who was hospitalized in Mexico City
and had no history of exposure to poultry or other animals.
The case, the person, had multiple underlying medical conditions.
The case's relatives reported that the case had already been bedridden
for three weeks for other reasons prior to the onset of acute symptoms.
It goes on to say, whenever avian influenza viruses are circulating in poultry,
there is a risk of infection and small clusters of human cases
due to exposure in infected poultry or contaminated environments.
Therefore, sporadic human cases are not unexexecutive.
cases are not unexpected. And they have a hard time, too, just as a side note to that, really
transmitting person to person. So when we see this, you know, the fear mongering, it's really
false flat because this is something that we're not seeing really even in the H5N1, which has
what we're told pandemic potential. It's only been about 900 plus cases since 1996. So these are
very low cases, despite what we're seeing right now. But this WHO, this press release, just picking it apart,
They PCR tested their 29 other contacts around this person.
They all tested negative.
This person obviously was bedridden for weeks with several other issues.
They waited weeks after they received the report of the fatality.
They waited weeks to report this, which is very interesting.
No exposure to poultry.
And again, the PCR tests, you know, they're known for false positives.
Right.
And what cycle are they using in those tests?
If people want to go back, we've covered this issue of a
PCR test just keeps magnifying and magnifying with each cycle until ultimately what we saw out of
the leader of Africa who's now no longer with us mysteriously but basically tested like pineapples
and mangoes and they tested positive for COVID and I'm sure this is similar clearly everyone
his family says dude this guy was like dying in the hospital like weeks ago and suddenly
you're saying it has like something to do with an avian flu I mean so and why are they testing
Like they're so desperate, so desperate to find this, and then so desperate to report it, all the back of being so desperate to control the world.
So keep your eyes open, folks.
I mean, whether or not they get away with it with this bird flu, they are looking for disease X.
They want it badly.
Now, remember from the COVID response, died with COVID or because of COVID?
There's a huge gap between those two conversations.
