Controversial WHO ‘Pandemic Agreement’ officially adopted in Geneva
4 min read
After three years of negotiations, the legally binding ‘pandemic treaty’ has been officially adopted by the World Health Assembly in Geneva, reportedly intended to “improve preparedness for future pandemics”.
What does the future hold for future ‘pandemic’ responses?
AGREEMENT ADOPTED
The World Health Organization (WHO) has officially adopted the controversial ‘pandemic agreement’ after three years of negotiations, with the legally binding pact announced in Geneva on Tuesday.
The pact was touted as a “victory” for members of the international health agency, with WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus calling the agreement “a gift to the world”.
The pact aims to ensure that drugs, therapeutics and vaccines are “readily accessible” when the next ‘pandemic’ hits. It requires manufacturers to allocate a target of 20 per cent of their vaccines, medicines and tests to the WHO during a ‘pandemic’ to ‘ensure poorer countries have access’.
“The agreement is a victory for public health, science and multilateral action,” said Tedros.
“It will ensure we, collectively, can better protect the world from future pandemic threats”.
The Agreement refers to the WHO as “directing and co-ordinating authority” in the event of a ‘pandemic’.
However, it does appear that many elements of the original plan — such as data retention — have since been removed to get it to pass.
It’s very watered down, essentially, but still a problem nonetheless.
Australia unsurprisingly has backed the agreement, stating it was ‘an important step forward’, Health Minister Mark Butler said in a statement.
“The next pandemic is not a matter of if, but when,” he said.
“We have a collective responsibility to protect public health in all of our countries.”
Australia’s Jane Halton, the chair of the Coalition of Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI), weighed in with support for the new WHO Pandemic Agreement.
However, not all countries have followed us into this dystopia.
124 members of the WHO adopted the agreement, while 11 countries, including Poland, Israel, Italy, Russia, Slovakia and Iran, abstained.
The United States are also missing from the pact, with the country currently in the process of withdrawing from the WHA and declining. to participate in the vote.

“It has doubled down with the pandemic agreement which will lock in all of the dysfunction of the WHO pandemic response … We’re not going to participate in that,” he said.
Wouldn’t it be great to have a health official like that in Australia?
The pact will not go into full effect until countries agree to share information on infectious disease, with negotiations on this starting in July, WHO says.
It’s finally here, ladies and gentlemen.
Australia is running headfirst into a situation where powers in the event of a ‘disease outbreak’ are placed into the hands of unelected, offshore institutions – and their corporate backers.
WHAT IS COMING?
TOTT News has been following the movements of these discussions since the idea of a ‘pandemic treaty’ first emerged in the aftermath of the COVID era.
In 2022, both sides of Australia’s false blue-red paradigm committed to sign any future pandemic treaties that would arise, and also state their intentions to do so on official government website pages.
In 2023, the Australian government has released a consultation paper detailing their adherence to a “global accord” on “pandemic prevention, preparedness and response” moving forward.
As the agreement drew closer, we saw authorities begin to warn of the potential of a new ‘pathogen’ – “Disease X” – that may ‘soon emerge and take the world by storm’.
This was echoed here at home as well, with both media and politicians beginning to unleash propaganda about how a ‘future pandemic’ was almost a certainty to appear again.
CEPI, headed up by Australia’s Jane Halton, recently unveiled their “100 Days Mission” – a vaccine ‘pressure test’ for universities and institutions to check their rapid response timing.
Now, with the official arrival of the WHO treaty, it seems plausible that something may be waiting in the wings to soon be unleased on the world.
