It turns out that the WHO's International Health Regulations amendments were doomed to failure until an 11th hour intervention
Here's another name to add to the list of the very top people employing public health to cement the globalist agenda.
In case you did not already know that the Biden administration and the Department of Health and Human Services were the leaders in carrying out the Globalist agenda, now you will.
Apologies for this long introduction, but Mr. Gostin has been my bete noir for the past 23 years, and it is extremely important to explain who Gostin is, what he has done, and the enormous influence he has had in the pandemic/bioterrorism landscape as a medical-legal “expert” on vast matters.
I talked about how Maurice Strong, and then Gro Harlem Brundtland almost singlehandedly brought the globalist climate-health agenda forward from around 1970. Lawrence O. Gostin’s name should be #3 in this list, beating out even Jeremy Farrar and Tony Fauci, who would be #s 4 and 5. These people created the architecture, the framework, the academic foundation from which the edifice of global governance through public health was created.
Lawrence O. Gostin is a global public health attorney (he used to call himself a public health attorney but now calls himself a global health attorney) who leads an Institute at Georgetown University. His career trajectory for at least the past 25 years has involved trying to centralize power over citizens via public health, while restricting our human rights. He has a face and bio only a mother could love.
According to his Georgetown bio, and I left most of it out:
Lawrence O. Gostin is Distinguished University Professor, Georgetown University’s highest academic rank conferred by the University President….
Prof. Gostin is the Director of the World Health Organization Collaborating Center on National and Global Health Law. He is working with the WHO and the Intergovernmental Negotiation Body (INB) to draft a Pandemic Treaty. He also currently serves on WHO’s Review Committee for amendments to the International Health Regulations (IHR).
The WHO Director-General has appointed Prof. Gostin to high-level positions, including the IHR Roster of Experts and the Expert Advisory Panel on Mental Health. He served on the Director-General’s Advisory Committee on Reforming the World Health Organization, as well as numerous WHO expert advisory committees, including on the Pandemic Influenza Preparedness Framework, smallpox, genomic sequencing data, migrant health, mental health, NCDs, and gender, equity and human rights. He served on the WHO/Global Fund Blue Ribbon Expert Panel: The Equitable Access Initiative to develop a global health equity framework. He chaired the WHO Health and Migration Consultation on Knowledge and Research in Migrant Health, including the WHO Triple Billion Goals….
He has chaired National Academy Committees on national preparedness for mass disasters, health informational privacy, public health genomics, and human subject research on prisoners.
Commissioned by the White House, Prof Gostin currently chairs the National Academies Committee on Current State of Research, Development, and Stockpiling of Smallpox Medical Countermeasures.
Prof. Gostin co-chaired the Lancet Commission on Global Health Law, which proposed the foundational concept of the Legal Determinants of Health.
Professor Gostin has been at the center of public policy and law through multiple epidemics from AIDS, SARS, and Influenza H1N1 to Ebola, MERS, Zika, and mpox. The Washingtonian Magazine lists Prof Gostin as the most influential 500 people shaping policy in America. He served on two global commissions to report on the lessons learned from the 2015 West Africa Ebola epidemic. He was also senior advisor to the United Nations Secretary General’s post-Ebola Commission. Prof. Gostin also served on the drafting team for the G-7 Summit in Tokyo 2016, focusing on global health security and Universal Health Coverage.
Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, Prof Gostin has worked with the White House, federal public health agencies, and governors in the United States, as well as the World Health Organization, GAVI, and the World Bank. Gostin currently serves as a member of the Independent Panel for a Global Public Health Convention (PGPHC): “global leaders working to strengthen the world’s ability to prevent, prepare, and respond to infectious disease outbreaks before they become widespread pandemics.” Prof. Gostin also serves on the Panel for the Global Health Security Index—the world’s most comprehensive assessment of global health security capabilities in 195 countries. He chairs the O’Neill Institute/Foundation of the National Institutes of Health Global Consultations on a Pandemic Treaty in support of the World Health Organization….
Prof. Gostin is a Member of the Council on Foreign Relations.
With CDC, Professor Gostin drafted and then lobbied for the Model State Emergency Health Powers Act (MSEHPA) in 1999-2001, for which he was paid about $1,000,000. How convenient for CDC to have a model draft ready and waiting before the anthrax letters attack, which Gostin is said to have updated after the letters were sent.
It was primarily the MSEHPA which gave state governors new dictatorial authorities to impose most aspects of the COVID lockdowns. Wikipedia says 40 states passed a version of it. According to Wikipedia, critics of the MSEHPA noted the following:
The Association of American Physicians and Surgeons claimed that the draft used sweeping language to the extent that it "could turn governors into dictators" since the MSEHPA gave governors the authority to declare public health emergencies, and afterward force vaccinations on the general public without their informed consent. The deployment of state National Guards could be used to administer the vaccines or substances. Legal liabilities for drug companies which manufactured the vaccines and/or substances were removed. ACT-UP/San Francisco protested the MSEHPA, stating it was a potential assault on gay men who could be rounded up en masse as vectors of disease, and the leaders of ACT-UP were jailed for three months on anti-terrorism charges for their protest.
Lawrence Gostin seems to have been at the center of every really bad public health effort over the past 25 years. And he has been at the center of the WHO’s Pandemic Treaty and International Health Regulations (IHR) amendments negotiations. He writes articles to push them. He is in the room with the negotiators. He advises the WHO Director-General.
Today his university and his department held a webinar on Bird Flu and vaccines at which Gostin spoke. It was extremely interesting. Below is the program, which expanded beyond bird flu. I hope it goes online so others can watch.
I will post later on the H5 vaccines.
But now I want to repeat what Gostin said about the WHO’s negotiation of the IHR amendments on June 1, the final day of the World Health Assembly. Recall that the diplomats had been unable to make a deal. Below is as close to verbatim as I could make it, taking notes as fast as possible while Mr. Gostin spoke:
“The IHR negotiations were collapsing. We thought they would collapse. Then US HHS Secretary Becerra came into the room and said the USA would be walking away from this if we didn’t adopt it now, on the very last day. And then they did.”
So that’s how it happened. It should have failed. But the big bully came in and said he was taking his toys and going home if everybody didn’t cooperate. Reminds me of VP Biden threatening Ukraine’s former PM that if the prosecutor investigating Burisma (where Hunter was on the Board) wasn’t fired in a couple of hours, Biden would be taking his billion dollar deal home.
We now have IHR amendments that, while watered down, are still more intrusive than we like. President Trump will be able to reject them, hopefully along with the WHO and Pandemic Treaty negotiations. The January 2022 US proposal on the earlier IHR amendments was to give nations only 6 months to reject new amendments. Had the US been able to get that through (it couldn’t), then by the time Trump took office it would have been too late to reject them.
It’s so interesting to see how both the IHR and Pandemic Treaty negotiations over the past 3 years were both intended to get the documents in force before Mr. Trump could take office. Well, they failed.
Good to know how the sausage is made.
These last four years have shown us how treason unfolds in broad daylight.
So many snakes in the grass. Americans killing Americans for money. It appears that the dark side has taken over so many it is frightening and difficult to stay ahead of it and Meryl you are so on top of things that your tireless research helps us see the magnitude of what we are facing. May God protect us in this war.
