The World Health Organization is preparing amendments to the 2005 International Health Regulations which would give the WHO unprecedented power over national-level governments – and override national sovereignty.
The World Health Organization (WHO) is preparing amendments to the 2005 International Health Regulations, which “provide an overarching legal framework that defines countries’ rights and obligations in handling public health events and emergencies that have the potential to cross borders.” This legally binding international agreement would give the WHO unprecedented power over national-level governments – and override national sovereignty.
The proposed amendments will also transfer the management of every state’s public health response during anything the WHO deems a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC). If adopted, the amendment(s) would surrender future U.S. and global public health emergency authority to the WHO Director-General (D-G).
We all need to encourage our local, state and federal leaders to speak up now to halt this massive power grab and reject the IHR amendments, which would turn the WHO into an unelected global government — The World Health Assembly (WHA), which is “the decision making body of the WHO,” convenes May 21-30 to discuss and possibly vote on these amendments.
Stop the WHO Power Grab!
