<title>Ventilation Machines (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Remember the panic about hospitals being able to access enough ventilation machines back in the early days of Covid?</p>
<p>Turns out putting patients on these machines was actually a death sentence.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.theepochtimes.com/health/the-great-covid-death-coverup_5320372.html">Epoch Times:</a>  <em>76.4 percent of COVID-19 patients (aged 18 to 65) in New York City who were placed on ventilators died. Among patients over age 65 who were vented, the mortality rate was <strong>97.2 percent</strong></em></p>
<p>In fact, it was known to be a death sentence within a few weeks of commencing the practice.  The point of doing it wasn&#039;t to save the patient - it was to protect health-care workers by isolating the virus inside the ventilation machine.</p>
<p>So who&#039;s brainwave was this?</p>
<p><em>The recommendation to place COVID-19 patients on mechanical ventilation as a first-line response <a href="https://dossier.substack.com/p/first-choice-how-china-and-the-who">came from the World Health Organization</a>, which in early March 2020 published a <a href="https://www.who.int/docs/default-source/coronaviruse/clinical-management-of-novel-cov.pdf">COVID-19 provider guidance document</a> to health care workers, based on experiences and recommendations <strong>from doctors in China</strong>.</em></p>
<p>Great.  Another WHO/CCP Covid recommendation - from the <em>critical early days</em> that proved to be 180 degrees contrary to what should have been done to mitigate Covid - which was originally engineered by:  WHO-affiliated scientists in a lab  </p>
<p>It&#039;s very hard to escape the explanation that WHO power-actors, having created Covid, did everything they possibly could to ensure its global spread.  Their advice included:</p>
<ul>
<li>Don&#039;t wear masks<br />
</li><li>There&#039;s no human-to-human transmission<br />
</li><li>There is no airborne transmission <br />
</li><li>Don&#039;t close borders with China<br />
</li><li>CCP is &quot;open &amp; transparent&quot;<br />
</li><li>It&#039;s &quot;extremely unlikely&quot; that Covid was a lab-leak</li></ul><p><br />
The horrifying thing is that WHO actors, on the back of this deadly advice (which they knew was wrong when they gave it), are now using Covid as a reason to increase their powers! They, believe or not, want power to act globally without deferring to anyone.  To get ready for the next Disease X.</p>
<p>A normal person would think: <em>Surely, they won&#039;t get more power.  Every single action they took succeeded in making Covid worse!  Not to mention they likely created the fucking virus in the first place!</em>  </p>
<p>But problem is: normal people have no influence over the Influencers - which are not even humans - they are &amp; they aren&#039;t.  There are influential people - sure - but they&#039;re representing a more powerful entity:</p>
<p>ORGS </p>
<p>One Health, One Government, One Everything</p>
<p><br />
We don&#039;t vote for these ORGS/Reps. They&#039;re: <br />
1. utterly unaccountable    <br />
2. corrupt to the core  (as you&#039;d expect when you&#039;re the above)</p>
<p>THE Goal is: Global Totalitarianism  - coming to a sector near you - in <em>THE NowFuture</em>.  Covid was a catapult event.</p>
<p><br />
Epoch Times:  <em>Hospitals also received <strong>massive financial incentives</strong> to diagnose patients with COVID-19—whether they had it or not—and to put them on a vent. They also received bonuses for using toxic remdesivir, and they were paid for each COVID-19 death as well. The entire system was set up to reward hospitals for misdiagnosing, mistreating, and ultimately killing patients.</em></p>
<p><em>China also benefited from the WHO’s misguided advice. While the United States clamored for more ventilators, Chinese hospitals started relying on them less, and instead, they were being <strong>exported in huge quantities</strong></em></p>
<p>Which explains in a nut-shell how humans are able to behave in such unethical ways:  have your ORG dangle a little money/power under your nose &amp;/or: stream Plato&#039;s Cave Celebrity Imaging on the wall ... 80% (?) of us will go for it - or turn a blind-eye.  Even if it means: <em>killing other humans</em> </p>
<p>Totalitarianism, an ultimate ORG, knows this.</p>
<p>It also knows 100% of <em>top management</em>, with a much larger money/power carrot, will go for it. It&#039;s why they <em>are</em> top management.  They can be relied upon to wield their ORGS power to:  coerce, ban, punish the 20% that object. </p>
<p>Game over.</p>
<p>Or is it?  Is there still a way to fuck Globo-ORGS up?</p>

<title>WHO:  Covid is Over (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Recently WHO pronounced: <em><a href="https://news.un.org/en/story/2023/05/1136367">THE End of Covid</a></em>  </p>
<p>But, like every other WHO pronouncement on Covid, that&#039;s an easily provable <em>lie</em>.  </p>
<p>It&#039;s not over.  It&#039;s <a href="https://www.news.com.au/technology/science/covid-numbers-increase-across-australia-in-alarming-sign-before-winter/news-story/4aefdedd1f04407c7f78ce37f5dd75ef">running rampant</a> - same as it has ever since it exited the lab.  It&#039;s doing what it was designed to do.  Full marks.</p>
<p>Only thing that&#039;s over is mega-amping it as a:</p>
<p><em>Crisis!</em> </p>
<p>... that gives us THE Right to: </p>
<ul>
<li>vacuum up all your rights/freedoms/personal data<br />
</li><li>entrench our centralist influence ORG going forward ... together ... with AI</li></ul><p><br />
So far as that goes, yeah, THE C-word is <em>over </em>- <em>mission accomplished</em></p>

<title>WHO bans Taiwanese journalists (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>No, that&#039;s not right.  This is where i think WW3 is already happening.  It&#039;s a war on individual rights by unaccountable globalists.  We&#039;ve blown the cover on the origin of Covid - that ought to have been the tide turning moment - but somehow we&#039;re still losing.</p>
</blockquote><p>And China is leading the way. It&#039;s paving the path for the rest of the power elite to follow. First, take total control over personal freedom. China has done this with its social credit system, digital currency (arising), and recent show of power via crackdown on Shanghai. The message is clear. Toe the line or get fucked. Toe the line or we will haul you away, literally.</p>
<p>And people respond. No doubt the other power hungry in the west are salivating when they see what China has done. Look at Hong Kong. Gone. Tiananmen Square? Didn&#039;t happen, even in Hong Kong now. </p>
<p>Democracy is dead. What person in power doesn&#039;t want more power? </p>
<p>State controlled digital currency is coming to the west, and that will have, by its very nature, a social score element. It will erase any semblance of privacy in what one purchases or where that purchase is made, or when, or how. It will be the end of anonymity. In order to get this currency, you will have to show some form of ID. From that point, everything you do with that currency will be tracked. It can be blocked. So you might find that your currency is no longer usable. They can make it so that your currency can only be spent on some things, or at some places, or at some time of day. </p>
<p>Why wouldn&#039;t a power hungry corporation, which is what our governments are now, want to use that technology?</p>
<p>So we&#039;ll see it being slowly introduced into our economies. Who knows how it will happen, but it will. I suspect a combination of unchecked inflation, collapsing fiat, and failing economies might lead to the introduction of this new currency. The question is, will it be done quickly or gradually. I&#039;m guessing gradually. It will be floated as something desirable, something to get into, if you can, to hedge inflation. There might be <em>limited</em> availability, or trial runs (hence limited), or test markets, all piquing interest in this new, better, more stable, safer money. </p>
<p>It might come with favorable interest rates on loans or other incentives, but it will come.</p>

<title>WHO bans Taiwanese journalists (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Excellent analysis.  Definitely write the book - after you finish The Refuser - this can be the prequel. </p>
<p>It&#039;s a smash and grab for the globalists experts.  As you point out, no one gets to vote for these people - now they want to enforce international compliance on a wish list of legal obligations - of their own devising.  And more money!</p>
<p>WHO&#039;s response to the outbreak has been a disgrace from the start. It had nothing to do with funding. Here are some on their <a href="https://dulandrift.formosahut.com/books/the-covid-atrocity/page/andersen-holmes-rambaut">greatest hits</a>:</p>
<ul>
<li>There is no evidence of human-to-human transition.<br />
</li><li>Covid is not an international emergency.<br />
</li><li>Don’t close the borders with China.<br />
</li><li>There&#039;s no evidence of aerosol transmission<br />
</li><li>Don’t wear masks.<br />
</li><li><em>China’s commitment to transparency is .. impressive, and beyond words.</em> (Tedros)</li></ul><p>The response was <em>so </em>bungled, it suggests it may have been deliberate.  <em>This is our big chance to rule the world - the last thing we need is it being snuffed out. </em></p>
<p>On top of that, there&#039;s a good chance WHO-affiliated scientists <em>made </em>Covid in the first place. (interestingly there&#039;s talk recently it could even have been engineered in the USA before making it&#039;s way to Wuhan)</p>
<p>In line with the frightening aspect you pointed out, both parties in Aus election were shoulder to shoulder on super-charging WHO re the report you laid out. That&#039;s insane.    It failed the world&#039;s citizens on the biggest stage - when everyone was relying on them to do their job -  coz, according to their excuse, they were busy playing politics - now they are getting rewarded?</p>
<p>No, that&#039;s not right.  This is where i think WW3 is already happening.  It&#039;s a war on individual rights by unaccountable globalists.  We&#039;ve blown the cover on the origin of Covid - that ought to have been the tide turning moment - but somehow we&#039;re still losing.</p>

<title>WHO bans Taiwanese journalists (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I could not have stated it better. </p>
<p>The WHO, it appears, is positioning itself for a major power grab, which of course will include a massive influx of funds. That would be money you and I pay in taxes. </p>
<p>I&#039;m still trying to find the precise langauge of any resolutions that were passed this weekend. </p>
<p>(THIS POSTING IS INTERRUPTED FOR EMERGENCY MESSAGE FROM NERV. Japan has this earthquake reporting app called NERV. When an earthquake happens, you get an alert, and, get this, it tells you precisely when the shock will hit you. It fucking works. I just got one and it the quake was so far away that it wasn&#039;t noticeable. But a few weeks ago I was in my office and got one, and the tiny jolt hit exactly according to the app. It has a timer that tells you it will hit in 5, 4, 3, 2,... 1. And it hits. Amazing. I think it even goes to tenths of hundredths of seconds.)</p>
<p>Anyway, here are a few excerpts from the Reuters rabbit hole:</p>
<p><a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/first-steps-reforming-global-health-emergency-rules-adopted-who-meeting-us-2022-05-28/">First steps in reforming global health emergency rules adopted at WHO meeting</a></p>
<p><em>The changes sought by Washington, and backed by others such as Japan and the European Union, mark a first step in a broader reform of the IHR, which set out countries&#039; legal obligations around disease outbreaks...</em></p>
<p>Something about the use of <em>legal obligations</em> here bothers me. So, the WHO will have the power to define international legal obligations? Who gave them that authority? Oh, wait, WHO gave themselves that authority!</p>
<p><a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/first-steps-reforming-global-health-emergency-rules-agreed-who-meeting-sources-2022-05-27/">First steps in reforming global health emergency rules agreed at WHO meeting</a></p>
<p><em>The amendments, once confirmed by the World Health Organization (WHO) assembly, are one of a handful of concrete outcomes from a meeting seen as a once-in-a-generation chance for the U.N. health agency to <strong>strengthen its role</strong> following some 15 million deaths during the COVID-19 pandemic.</em></p>
<p>That&#039;s it&#039;s goal, to strengthen it&#039;s role, a euphemism for seizing more power. </p>
<p><em>Other U.S. proposals yet to be negotiated by the WHO&#039;s 194 members include the possible <strong>deployment of expert teams</strong> to contamination sites and the <strong>creation of a new compliance committee</strong> to monitor the rules&#039; future implementation.</em></p>
<p>So, experts chosen by the WHO will go to countries to monitor compliance. I think I&#039;m writing a fiction novel about this shit. </p>
<p><a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/africa-objects-us-push-reform-health-rules-who-assembly-2022-05-24/">Africa objects to U.S. push to reform health rules at WHO assembly</a></p>
<p><em>The IHR set out WHO members&#039; legally binding obligations around outbreaks. The United States has proposed 13 IHR reforms which seek to authorise the deployment of expert teams to contamination sites and the creation of a new compliance committee to monitor implementation of the rules.</em></p>
<p>That&#039;s just scary shit. Who is giving them this authority? Oh, we&#039;ve already answered that question. </p>
<p><a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/who-chief-seeks-central-role-un-agency-global-health-2022-05-23/">WHO chief says it must take central role in global health</a></p>
<p>The title says it all. Full stop.</p>
<p><em>The head of the World Health Organization said on Monday that it must be &quot;at the centre&quot; of a global healthcare system...</em></p>
<p>At the center is a euphemism for having complete control. An unelected body wants to control the world health care system. That&#039;s not good. </p>
<p><em>&quot;We need a stronger and sustainably financed WHO, at the centre of the global health security architecture,&quot; Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said in a major speech at the WHO&#039;s annual assembly.</em></p>
<p>No, we don&#039;t. We don&#039;t need that and I don&#039;t want you to take my money. </p>
<p><a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/world-no-better-place-fight-pandemics-than-before-covid-review-panel-2022-05-18/">World in no better place to fight pandemics than before COVID - review</a></p>
<p><em>LONDON, May 18 (Reuters) - The world is no better prepared for a new pandemic than it was when coronavirus emerged in 2019 and may actually be in a worse place given the economic toll, according to a panel set up by the World Health Organization (WHO) to evaluate the global response.</em></p>
<p><em>A lack of progress on reforms such as international health regulations means the world is as vulnerable as ever, the Independent Panel for Pandemic Preparedness and Response said in its report.</em></p>
<p>So, let&#039;s get this straight. The world is fucked because you&#039;re not powerful enough. But if we make progress on reforms, which means giving you more money and power, then we&#039;ll be better off. No, I disagree. </p>
<p><em>The authors, led by former New Zealand prime minister Helen Clark and former president of Liberia Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, acknowledged some progress, including on more robust funding for the WHO, but said the process was going far too slowly.</em></p>
<p>There&#039;s the F word again. Well, you have to pay for those fancy international meetings somehow. </p>
<p>Money and power. </p>
<p><a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/g20-agrees-set-up-global-pandemic-preparedness-fund-2022-04-21/">G20 agrees to set up global pandemic preparedness fund</a></p>
<p><em>Speaking on Wednesday, World Bank President David Malpass said there was &quot;growing support&quot; for the fund and the body would work with WHO and other partners on its establishment.</em></p>
<p>OK, well, since I&#039;ll be paying for this in part, when do I get my say?</p>

<title>WHO bans Taiwanese journalists (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you&#039;re wondering whether the groundswell of popular international support for Taiwan from normal people has translated to the top ... it hasn&#039;t.  In fact it&#039;s gotten worse.</p>
<p>Have continually banned Taiwan from participation in WHO, despite Taiwan having proved itself the most adept country in the world at handling Covid (coz it ignored all of WHO&#039;s advice), WHO has now banned Taiwanese journalists from attending official press conferences, or having any access to question the corrupt power elites that make up WHO/</p>
<p><a href="https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/4552497">Association of Taiwan Journalists:</a> <em>The right to interview <strong>should </strong>be regarded as one of the universal human rights, not as a gift from powerful countries. ..  (S)uch an attitude is tantamount to persecution.</em></p>
<p>I&#039;m going off the use of the word &#039;should&#039; - you can tell WHO what they &#039;should&#039; do till your blue in the face but they will never pay the slightest attention.  It was a mistake by Biden to rejoin WHO - the org, which was instrumental in the Covid Cover-up. It is corrupt to the core and can never be reformed. Dissolve it and create a new organization from scratch that is focused on health, not politics.</p>

<p>That tells you all you need to know about the UN&#039;s appetite for reform in the wake of their tragic mishandling/cover-up of Covid.</p>

<title>WHO sexual abuse in Congo Ebola outbreak (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-58710200">BBC:</a> <em>World Health Organization (WHO) staff were among 83 aid workers who sexually abused women and girls while tackling the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo, a report finds.</em></p>
<p><em>The abuses, which included <strong>nine allegations of rape</strong>, were committed by both national and international workers between 2018 and 2020.</em></p>
<p><em>The commission said it found &quot;<strong><strong>clear structural failures</strong></strong> and unpreparedness to manage the risks of incidents of sexual exploitation and abuse&quot; in the central African country.</em></p>
<p><em>It said this was partly because of the focus on eradicating Ebola.</em></p>
<p>Not sure how <em>focusing on Ebola</em> can cause you to rape someone - i&#039;d say it&#039;s more to do with the culture of unaccountablitiy, entitlement and corruption in WHO.</p>

<title>Taking the politics out (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>She doesn&#039;t bother to address the fact that these labs and this research is very new, and so of course any leaks are not historically prevalent. Nor does the host bother to ask, hmmm, but what about the fact that this research, genetic science, etc. etc. etc., is all very, very new from an historical context, and so to base assumptions on historical data is flawed? What, in fact, is the possibility of a leak? </p>
<p>That question, the mechanics of a leak, the mechanics of the lab, just isn&#039;t addressed. </p>
</blockquote><p>
The other thing is that they talk about SARS and MERS like they&#039;re closed-cases - they&#039;re not.</p>
<p>There is still <a href="index.php?id=2491" class="internal">no definitive proof</a> that SARS came from nature. The closest they got was a bat with an identity percentage of 96+% - which is similar to that of RaTG13 with SARS-2 at 96.27%. The civet theory is also dubious. Btw, SARS-1 leaked from labs a whopping 6 times following the initial outbreak. Was the origin of SARS-1 a lab-escape, too? I don&#039;t know but it&#039;s certainly possible. I&#039;d love to see side by side graphs of the amount spent on studying coronaviruses and the number of instances of deadly outbreaks of the common cold in the history of humanity.</p>
<p>MERS - which was a Lipkin/Daszak study - was also shrouded in murkiness. They were there at the exclusive invitation of Saudi&#039;s totalitarian govt and the samples they collected accidentally thawed on the flight back. </p>
<p>Yes, historically we&#039;ve had colds before (corona virus being a form of cold) but not ones that killed 5 million in a year. That&#039;s something we&#039;ve never seen ever. </p>
<p>It&#039;s also absurd that she&#039;s complaining that the investigation is focusing exclusively on a lab-leak. The opposite is true! The lab-leak was blanket-banned by the media and most scientists while WHO did their faux investigations that concluded, bizarrely, that Covid didn&#039;t originate in China, let alone Wuhan. </p>
<p>We&#039;re in this crazy situation where fringe theories are being mainstreamed (pangolin, wet market) while common-sense theories are being marginalized.</p>
<p>For whose benefit? The CCP.</p>
<p>One more - someone makes the excuse that lab-leak theory was suppressed coz it &quot;was mixed up with theories about a deliberate release of a bio-weapon&quot;. What nonsense. The only people doing the mixing were CCP supporting scientists who used the deliberate bio-weapon as a straw man to argue against a lab-escape possibility.</p>

<title>Taking the politics out (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>Do you think it makes it impossible to fix? This is the movie where the corruption runs all the way to the top - so who&#039;s left to hold the perps accountable?</p>
</blockquote><p>I wonder the extent to which what we&#039;re seeing in the media is just complete bullshit. We&#039;ve been told that there are intelligence reports of researchers from the lab getting sick but haven&#039;t been given proof. In fact, we haven&#039;t been given proof of anything, at all. Nothing. Except the daily tally of the dead. </p>
<p>So what is going on? Is US intelligence holding their cards close as a bargaining chip? Are there backroom dealings going on? </p>
<p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pktSL5kL3ZI">Here&#039;s another recent talking points show from BBC</a>. In this one, the guest virologist, who worked with bat lady, reluctantly admits that there were lapses in the lab, but very strongly points out that the overwhelming likelihood is that this virus is from an animal because, well, that&#039;s the way it&#039;s been for the last few thousand years.</p>
<p>She doesn&#039;t bother to address the fact that these labs and this research is very new, and so of course any leaks are not historically prevalent.

<title>Taking the politics out (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>If this shit show of a look at a possible leak is an indication of what we can expect from the media, then this is going nowhere. And Al Jazeera is, IMO, one of the better media outlets out there.</p>
</blockquote><p>That&#039;s the thing - if Al Jazeera is participating then what hope is there? It&#039;s a coordinated media blank-out.</p>
<p>That makes it very hard for the truth to get a foothold. </p>
<p>Do you think it makes it impossible to fix? This is the movie where the corruption runs all the way to the top - so who&#039;s left to hold the perps accountable?</p>

<title>Taking the politics out (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here&#039;s a <a href="https://www.aljazeera.com/program/inside-story/2021/5/28/will-the-us-succeed-in-finding-the-origins-of-covid-19">somewhat disappointing look by Al Jazeera into the now acceptable questions being raised about a lab leak.</a> Not only does the host begin the show by referring to the initial speculation of a leak as a conspiracy theory, he doesn&#039;t hold the CCP&#039;s bitch, Victor Gao, to account when Gao (a funny name for such a low life) walks all over him. One of Gao&#039;s main points is that the world needs to keep politics out of it and follow the science.</p>
<p>It&#039;s hard to watch. The guest virologist did raise an interesting theory. He thinks the most likely scenario is that somebody, perhaps a disgruntled employee, purposefully stole and released some of the virus. He finds that as more possible than a leak, even though lab leaks of lethal viruses have happened multiple times in the past, another point the host didn&#039;t raise.</p>
<p>If this shit show of a look at a possible leak is an indication of what we can expect from the media, then this is going nowhere. And Al Jazeera is, IMO, one of the better media outlets out there.</p>

<title>Taking the politics out (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>WHO experts say some risible things but &#039;we want to take the politics out of it&#039; is right up there.</p>
<p>Kow-towing to the CCP is not &#039;taking the politics out of it&#039; - that&#039;s full-on playing politics - in the immoral end of the spectrum. </p>
<p>What they mean is &#039;take everyone else&#039;s politics out of it&#039; - otherwise known as <em>totalitarianism</em>.</p>
<p>Trying to pretend the CCP allows its nice scientists at its most important biodefense facility free rein is silly. Doesn&#039;t need documentary evidence to know that - but turns out the evidence is pretty funny.</p>
<p>It&#039;s from <a href="http://www.whiov.cas.cn/xwdt_160278/zhxw2019/201911/t20191111_5429867.html">WIV&#039;s newsletter</a>:</p>
<p><em>On the afternoon of February 22, (2019) Wuhan Institute of Virology, Chinese Academy of Sciences held a special study meeting to convey Xi Jinping’s important speech at the Third Plenary Session of the 19th Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the spirit of the Third Plenary Session of the 19th Central Commission for Discipline Inspection.</em> </p>
<p>Hmm, doesn&#039;t sound terribly apolitical so far.</p>
<p><em>A total of 40 project secretaries and managers attended the meeting. He Changcai, Deputy Secretary of the Party Committee and Secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, delivered a report entitled &quot;Strict Words in the First and Strict to the End&quot;, comprehensively reviewed the key work of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection in 2018, combined with the understanding and experience of discipline inspection and supervision.</em></p>
<p>That&#039;s a whole lot of discipline by the CCP for the WIV researchers. How do we take the politics out of that?</p>

<title>WHO rejects Taiwan participation at WHA - again (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>Meanwhile, these international organizations that were meant to protect us from all this bullshit have sold out to the highest bidder. </p>
<p>This seems to be a very unstable situation. On top if it all, we have growing wealth inequality, decreasing natural resources (particularly water and food), and very fragile supply chain infrastructure. In short, we&#039;re in deep shit.</p>
</blockquote><p>That&#039;s the crux of the situation - the very fundamentals of our societal organizations have come under question:</p>
<p>Are these bodies, all using public money, functioning on behalf of the public?</p>
<p>Or are they corruptly acting to protect/grow their own power bases?</p>
<p>The &quot;evidence&quot; suggests it&#039;s the latter. </p>
<p>The consequences of that are enormous coz it means society is in a situation where we can&#039;t trust our own experts. From there it&#039;s a short step from the whole fabric of society unraveling. Which explains the desperate attempts to cover this scary truth up. The trouble with that is, the more you cover it up, the worse it gets.</p>
<p>I remember my mum railing against the Olympic Committee - saying it was all a corrupt gravy train - that was 30-40 years ago. The same disease that afflicted the Olympic Committee has worked its way through all such international bodies - it was always inevitable that it would. </p>
<p>Human beings in privileged, powerful positions taking the very human response of protecting those positions - this becomes their number one priority. </p>
<p>As i said to my sister (a scientist) re WHO&#039;s performance at the start of Covid, &#039;If you&#039;re trying to undermine public faith in its own institutions, then you&#039;re going exactly the right way about it.&#039; </p>
<p>The question then is:</p>
<p>Are you ready to take responsibility for your actions/lies, and then deal with the fallout from that?</p>
<p>Coz it&#039;s coming, &#039;ready-or-not&#039;.</p>

<title>WHO rejects Taiwan participation at WHA - again (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>It&#039;s important to remember that Totalitarianism is alive and well as a system of government. It&#039;s not just China - the Arabian countries - many in Africa, South America. Then there&#039;s corrupt &#039;democratic&#039; countries (Russia) which is practically the same thing. WHO is a great example of a corrupt &#039;democracy&#039; in action. </p>
<p>These countries vote as a block. As it stands - Totalitarianism is the ruling faction. Their edicts have got nothing to do with your health - on the contrary - it&#039;s pure politics.</p>
<p>That&#039;s the cold hard fact of who WHO is.</p>
</blockquote><p>Two trends in the supposedly democratic, progressive West bother me about this. One is that these world organizations did seem to offer hope and promise after WWII for a more sane world. The UN, WHO, World Bank, IMF, etc., in theory, are meant to be stabilizing forces. But in fact, as you point out, they have become political tools serving special interests, tools we quite literally pay for. </p>
<p>So there&#039;s that. But now in the US we have two opposing, extreme political camps. And with regards to these international organizations, this is a very odd, and very disturbing situation. </p>
<p>The far right generally opposes these organizations for a variety of reasons. The middle to far left, on the other hand, embraces them.</p>
<p>The ironic nature of all this is that the far right is, by nature, totalitarian (though some claim to be libertarian, which is bullshit), and the far left claims to be &#039;woke&#039;, and yet embraces these totalitarian world bodies!</p>
<p>And so we have both ends of the spectrum supporting, in one form or another, totalitarianism, with the far right dabbling in fascism. </p>
<p>Meanwhile, these international organizations that were meant to protect us from all this bullshit have sold out to the highest bidder. </p>
<p>This seems to be a very unstable situation. On top if it all, we have growing wealth inequality, decreasing natural resources (particularly water and food), and very fragile supply chain infrastructure. In short, we&#039;re in deep shit.</p>

<title>WHO rejects Taiwan participation at WHA - again (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Despite the US, all the G7 countries, Australia, Sweden, Japan, a bunch of places calling for <a href="https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/4200343">Taiwan to be allowed to participate at the next WHA meeting</a>, it was again banned by WHO.</p>
<p>There is no logical scientific argument for banning a country that was on the doorstep of the outbreak yet proved the most effective at controlling it - without lockdowns, or even vaccines (so far). </p>
<p>How the fuck did they do it? Wouldn&#039;t that be valuable knowledge for the world in its big moment of crisis?</p>
<p>They did it by knowing that WHO&#039;s and China&#039;s advice that there was nothing to worry about - meant there <em>was</em> something to worry about. They reacted - they were ready. </p>
<p>It begs the question again: &#039;WHO the fuck is WHO?&#039;</p>
<p>Masquerading as health experts - always saying &quot;we want to take the politics out of science&quot; - calling everyone who questions them &quot;conspiracy theorists&quot; - but then functioning as a political arm of the CCP.</p>
<p>WHO is made up of 194 member countries. They all get a vote. </p>
<p>It&#039;s important to remember that Totalitarianism is alive and well as a system of government. It&#039;s not just China - the Arabian countries - many in Africa, South America. Then there&#039;s corrupt &#039;democratic&#039; countries (Russia) which is practically the same thing. WHO is a great example of a corrupt &#039;democracy&#039; in action. </p>

<title>Tedros appointed Mugabe as WHO goodwill ambassador (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-41702662">BBC</a>: <em>(Tedros) was elected in May with a mandate to tackle perceived politicisation in the organisation</em>.</p>
<p>One of Tedros&#039;s first acts in &#039;tackling politicization&#039; was to appoint deranged Zimbabwe tyrant Robert Mugabe as a WHO goodwill ambassador. </p>
<p><a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-51720184">Tedros</a>: (Mugabe has made Zimbabwe) &quot;a country that places universal health coverage and health promotion at the centre of its policies&quot;.</p>
<p>The decision attracted derision from human rights organizations:</p>
<p>Kenneth Roth, Human Rights Watch: <em>When you go to Zimbabwean hospitals, they lack the most basic necessities. Mugabe&#039;s utter mismanagement of the economy has devastated health services&quot;.</em></p>
<p>Obert Gutu, Zimbabwe MDC party: The Zimbabwe health delivery system is in a shambolic state, it is an insult. Mugabe trashed our health delivery system... he allowed our public hospitals to collapse.</p>
<p>Another Goodwill Ambassador appointed under Tedros is Peng Liyuan - <a href="https://www.albawaba.com/news/wife-xi-jinping-listed-who-website-one-nine-%E2%80%98goodwill-ambassadors%E2%80%99-1358531">Xi Jinping&#039;s wife!</a></p>
<p>Ironically, as someone who supposedly got the top WHO job, with the <a href="https://www.cfr.org/blog/tedros-taiwan-and-trump-what-they-tell-us-about-chinas-growing-clout-global-health">backing of China</a>, with &quot;a mandate to tackle perceived politicization of WHO&quot;, the words  &quot;&quot;persuasive&quot; and &quot;<a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-51720184">political</a>&quot; are (the ones that) crop up regularly when discussing his leadership of WHO.&quot;</p>
<p>In short the Tedros is a political charlatan with a particular affinity for dictators.</p>
<p>And yet here he is, leader of WHO, our expert of the experts.  If we don&#039;t swallow every word he says we get yelled at and called conspiracy theorists.</p>
<p>But here are the take-away facts about Tedros:</p>
<p>1. He&#039;s been a long time <a href="https://www.who.int/news/item/15-08-2017-director-general-leads-who-delegation-to-the-belt-and-road-forum-for-health-cooperation">cheerleader</a> for Xi&#039;s Belt and Road Initiative.<br />
2. <a href="https://www.cfr.org/blog/tedros-taiwan-and-trump-what-they-tell-us-about-chinas-growing-clout-global-health">Banned Taiwan</a> from WHA observer status.<br />
3. He lied about the severity of the Covid outbreak in the critical early days and suppressed reports from Chinese whistleblower doctors.<br />
4. He advised against wearing masks, said there was no human to human transmission.<br />
5. He praised the CCP to high heaven saying they were &quot;open and transparent&quot;.<br />
6. He <a href="index.php?id=1989" class="internal">covered up several cholera outbreaks</a> in Ethiopia when he was Health Minister there.<br />
7. He praised Mugabe and appointed him as WHO goodwill ambassador.</p>

<title>Marion Koopmans-Daszak deny lab link (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/who-origins-investigator-defends-wuhan-lab-blames-lack-access-anti-china-political-rhetoric">Koopmans:</a> “So we have visited the three laboratories that have been actively working, including the laboratory sitting close to the market, including the Wuhan Institute of Virology.&quot;</p>
<p>“We have discussed their research programs, their routine testing programs, the way they work, what they had done in terms of health monitoring and testing of staff, and <strong>based on that</strong>, we concluded that it’s <strong>extremely unlikely</strong> that there was a lab incident.” </p>
<p>In other words, we asked: <br />
&#039;Did you guys accidentally leak Covid?&#039;</p>
<p>They said &#039;What us? No!&#039; </p>
<p>And &quot;based on that&quot; we believed them. Case closed. Where do we pick up our checks?</p>
<p>What the WHO &#039;investigators&#039; conveniently didn&#039;t do is ask for access to the WIV database that went off-line with unpublished material of what experiments were being conducted at WIV. </p>
<p><a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/who-origins-investigator-defends-wuhan-lab-blames-lack-access-anti-china-political-rhetoric">Daszak:</a> “We did not ask to see the data, and, as you know, a lot of this work is work that’s been conducted with EcoHealth Alliance. I’m also part of those data, and we do basically know what’s in those databases.&quot;</p>
<p>Sorry if we don&#039;t take your word for it Pete - let&#039;s just see the data. Covering it up only makes it look more suspicious.</p>
<p>Nor did they enquire about missing lab-worker, <a href="https://www.news.com.au/world/coronavirus/global/wuhan-virus-lab-scientist-thought-to-be-covid19-patient-zero-still-missing-despite-yearlong-search/news-story/36b5227262044af57c4e09132f4b3c6b">Huang Yanling</a>.</p>

<p>Marion Koopmans: There were occasional illness because that&#039;s normal.  There was nothing that stood out. (touches hair)</p>

<title>Ben Embarek wins Science Award - from China (reply)</title>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In terms of credibility - the less awards you win for services to totalitarian regimes, the better.</p>
<p>W. Ian Lipkin has a whole trophy cabinet full of them but leader of the WHO Investigation Team, Ben Embarek is closing ground.</p>
<p>This one is called the &#039;Scientific Spirit Award&#039; in which the CCP gives &quot;praise and thanks&quot; for Embarek&#039;s &quot;adherence&quot; and &quot;great contributions&quot; to the CCP&#039;s concept of scientific spirit with Chinese characteristics.</p>
<p>Embarek, who before, during, and after the WHO Investigation rejected any serious consideration of a lab-escape, repeated that it was &quot;<a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-55996728">extremely unlikely</a>... (and)... not in the hypotheses that we will suggest for future studies&quot;. Case closed.</p>
<p>As such, he has played a leading role in selling the CCP&#039;s version of events and thoroughly deserves his award.</p>
<p>The Wuhan Virus will be remembered for as long as humanity exists. Those scientists who have perverted the course of the investigation by shutting down any serious consideration of the most probable cause of Covid - a lab escape - will be forever stained with infamy. </p>
<p>In this case, if it was an accident, the cover-up is worse than the origin event - at least that was, probably, an accident. But what you&#039;re doing is deliberate, premeditated deception to protect totalitarianism. I hope you&#039;re ready to own that.</p>
<p>Or are you really so confident that totalitarianism will win? In which case you&#039;ll continue to be celebrated as highly paid heroes?</p>
