The US Should Leave the WHO Now

Full disclosure: When Donald Trump pulled the United States out of the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2016, I was taken aback. It seemed unsporting of him. Why should he oppose health? The WHO had an illustrious history of doing things such as sharing disease information and vaccinating against smallpox. I simply couldn’t fathom the reason for this.

How times have changed! How we’ve all changed!

It turns out that Trump was exactly right about the WHO all along. It was the WHO that pushed for global lockdowns. That’s bad enough. What’s worse is how the organization has become a kind of nascent world government that’s plotting—in tandem with its vulture-like hangers-on—to spring lockdowns on the world whenever it wants to. And if the WHO has its way now, under its international health regulations (IHR), lockdowns, censorship, and global population control via health passports will become the norm.

I see only one solution right now. And it’s urgent. The United States needs immediately to pull out of the World Health Organization. It’s urgently necessary in order to preserve the Constitution or what’s left of it. It’s a simple matter of saying no to globalist control and yes to national sovereignty. Without sovereignty over our own government, so at least the citizens stand some chance of restraining power, we lose everything.

In this case, there truly is everything to lose. Remember when you couldn’t go to church, leave your home, or attend your grandmother’s funeral? That was a policy recommendation of the World Health Organization issued on March 20, 2020. The organization praised the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) for its pandemic response. The lockdowns caused money to flow from you to them. So of course they want to repeat that experience, forever.

Never mind that it didn’t work. That doesn’t matter to these out-of-reach bureaucrats. They have the power and money and you don’t. So, of course, they want more of it. That’s why right now, they’re trying to put through a new treaty and new health regulations for the planet Earth. And the United States will be subject to both so long as it’s a signatory to them.

This is all in the name of “pandemic planning,” but guess what? Pandemics aren’t much of a problem these days compared with the past. It’s the least of our worries. We should be worrying about chronic disease that leads to heart failure and ill health generally as a result of basic stuff such as poor diet and lack of exercise. Instead of focusing on poison food and terrible lifespans in the developed world and lack of access to health care elsewhere, the WHO wants us to be in a constant frenzy worrying about the next bug on the horizon.

Pandemic planning is a great racket. There’s a reason why the money-laundering scam called FTX became so interested in the subject. It’s because that’s where the money is these days. Bill Gates battled computer viruses for years and became interested in broadening his fake expertise to tackling biological viruses more generally. So he shoveled his billions in ill-gotten gains into the World Health Organization.

And lo and behold, the WHO, flush with cash, found exactly what they were looking for: a new deadly virus. Except that by this time, the WHO also developed a tight relationship with the CCP, which used the institution to troll the world. And it worked. Next thing you know, every Western government save Sweden (which had a poor diplomatic relationship with China at the time) locked down and destroyed their economies and cultures in the name of pandemic control.

The WHO worked as the conduit and excuse. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention pushed lockdowns because the WHO said to do so. Defying them is no easy trick, especially when national media is screaming to defer to the globalist hegemon. Then, state health departments went along and so on down the line. This is why it matters. The WHO needs to be unplugged completely from the governing machinery of the United States.

Let Gates squander his wealth on these birds. The U.S. taxpayer should be entirely off the hook. It’s completely worth a budget battle over this subject because all liberties and rights are at stake.

David Bell is the world expert on the WHO, and he wrote the following. The new regulations would:

• Expand the definitions of pandemics and health emergencies, including the introduction of ‘potential’ for harm rather than actual harm. It also expands the definition of health products that fall under this to include any commodity or process that may impact the response or “improve quality of life.”
• Change the recommendations of the IHR from ‘non-binding’ to mandatory instructions that the States undertake to follow and implement.
• Solidify the director-general’s ability to independently declare emergencies.
• Set up an extensive surveillance process in all states, which the WHO will verify regularly through a county review mechanism.
• Enable the WHO to share country data without consent.
• Give the WHO control over certain country resources, including requirements for financial contributions and provision of intellectual property and know-how (within the broad definition of health products above).
• Ensure national support for the promotion of censorship activities by WHO to prevent contrary approaches and concerns from being freely disseminated.
• Change existing IHR provisions affecting individuals from nonbinding to binding, including border closures, travel restrictions, confinement (quarantine), medical examinations, and medication of individuals. The latter would encompass requirements for injection with vaccines or other pharmaceuticals.

The treaty itself would:

• Set up an international supply network overseen by the WHO.
• Fund the structures and processes by requiring about 5 percent of national health budgets to be devoted to health emergencies.
• Set up a ‘Governing Body,’ under WHO auspices to oversee the whole process.
• Expand scope by emphasizing a ‘One Health’ agenda, being defined as a recognition that a very broad range of aspects of life and the biosphere can impact health and, therefore, fall under the ‘potential’ to spread harm across borders as an international health emergency.

This all is essentially nuts, not to mention deeply dangerous. It also suggests that the WHO pays no attention to evidence-based science at all, since it pretends to be oblivious to the harms of lockdowns and vaccine mandates. It boggles the mind that after three years of living hell under the pandemic planners that the United States would sign up for more, but that’s exactly what’s happening.

The WHO had an illustrious history. I was personally slow to see how this had changed. But it has changed. The only real solution is a complete end to U.S. participation. Not one more dime, not one more signature. Complete separation. It’s something that every lawmaker should agree to. There’s no chance for reform. The United States must get out now before it’s too late.
