A Dangerous Global Health Bureaucracy
The Covid pandemic gave the World Health Organisation and its partners unprecedented visibility and a tremendous amount of "soft" power to shape public health law and policies across the world. Over the past year or so, the WHO has been pushing hard to consolidate and expand its power to declare and manage public health emergencies on a global scale.
The primary instruments for this consolidation are a WHO Pandemic Accord and a series of far-reaching amendments to existing International Health Regulations (IHR). The target date for finalising both the IHR Amendments and the new Pandemic Accord is May 2024.
The net effect of the proposed text for the pandemic accord and the proposed amendments to the International Health Regulations, would be to create a legal and financial basis for the emergence of an elaborate, internationally coordinated bio-surveillance regime and significantly strengthen the authority of the World Health Organisation to direct and coordinate the international response to global and regional public health threats...
Even if the WHO failed to get a new pandemic treaty passed, the proposed amendments to International Health Regulations would be sufficient by themselves to confer unprecedented power on the WHO to direct international health and vaccination policies in circumstances deemed by the WHO to be a "public health emergency of international concern."...

Removal of Reference to "Dignity, Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms"...
Under this amendment, International Health Regulations, and their main coordinating body, the WHO, would be concerned not only with public health risks, but with every conceivable societal risk that might "impact" public health. Workplace stress? Vaccine hesitancy? Disinformation? Misinformation?...
Entrenchment and Legitimation of an International Bio-Surveillance Regime...
