Conversation with Magdalena Trojanowska – lawyer, journalist, vice president of the Parents Protection Association
Since the pandemic, we have heard a lot about the planet wellness Organization (WHO). Can you give us a closer look at her history, her M.O. and her funding?
– The planet wellness Organization was founded in 1948 as a specialized global agenda of the United Nations. The WHO Constitution came into force on 7 April 1948, erstwhile 26 of the 61 governments that signed it ratified their signature. The first wellness Assembly started in Geneva on 24 June 1948 with a delegation from 53 of 55 associate States. Poland was among the founding countries.
As far as the key events for WHO activities are concerned, the establishment of the first always global illness tracking service in 1947 could be considered to be specified as. Another was the 1948 admission – (WHO becomes its administrator) of the global Classification of Diseases (ICD). The ICD has evolved into a global digital database of wellness data collected, documented and analysed by different countries. We just adopted a fewer months ago the 11th version of the ICD classification into our wellness strategy – it does not contain the concept of biological sex, but only attributed at birth and recognised. The WHO besides provides a list of the most crucial medicines that all national wellness systems should have at a affordable price for society.
In the 1950s, the WHO began advising countries on the production and expansion of antibiotics and on liable use.
In 1952, Jonas Salk developed an inactivated polio vaccine, paving the way for mass global vaccination campaigns supported by individual countries, WHO and another partners. Six pharmaceutical companies licensed to produce this vaccine. Over the following years, WHO focused its efforts on the fight against SARS, malaria, Aids, smallpox, bird flu.
In 2005, the WHO released the global Clinical Trials Registry Platform (ICTRP) online platform with an overview of thousands of registered medical clinical trials, performed worldwide in accordance with the Consolidated 1996 CONSORT Guidelines. As regards the governance structure, we stand out: the planet wellness Assembly, the Executive Board, the Secretariat with its head CEO and 6 regional offices. In a pandemic situation, the Extraordinary Situation Committee operates.
The 2018 WHO Finance study indicates that 49 % of the budget comes from outside associate States. These are NGOs, private foundations, the planet Bank, UN organisations and another private sector representatives. The study of 2022 lists among the top 10 WHO sponsors Bil Gates Foundation and the global GAVI vaccine alliance, crucial sponsors are Bloomberg household Foundation, CDC Foundation, Welcome Trust, Vital Strategies. In addition to those on the list of largest donors, we find many representatives of the pharmaceutical and chemical manufacture Bayer AG, Gilead Sciences, Hofman-La Roche, Sanofi Pasteur, Sanofi-Aventis, Merck, Merck Sharp and Dohmne Chibret, Gates Foundation itself besides has holdings of, among others, pharmaceutical groups GlaxoSmithKline, Novartis, Roche, Sanofi, Gilead and Pfizer.
In February 2019, a peculiar Private Sector Management Advisory Group for Universal wellness Coverage (UHC) was established to take action as an advisory body of the WHO to make and implement arrangements for the management and regulation of the provision of services by the private sector. During the pandemic, vaccine giants gaining WHO certification multiplied their profits. The WHO certifies certain medicines, vaccines, investigation programs, actions carried out by selected companies, safety programs in wellness facilities, treatments, and even ship hygiene and training in aviation, etc. allegedly on behalf of the general good, attributing the only expertise in the planet at a time of pandemic danger – frequently while exempting any companies from work for their actions – so we face a clear conflict of interest. Financial tycoons warrant themselves an intra-trading place of influence and the acquisition of generous contracts, avoiding liability and utilizing public-private partnerships, absorbing public funds on their commercial activities. It's definitely an intimate business arrangement, and we request to get free of the infantile trust that entities focused on multiplying their own profits will treat our good overridingly.
What are global wellness Regulations?
– In 1969, the planet wellness Assembly established the first global wellness Regulations (IHR), which constitute an agreement between the WHO associate States on cooperation to prevent acute global threats to public health. In 2005, the 1969 version was updated to the alleged "International wellness Regulations 2005", i.e. IHR 2005, and as the WHO itself states, they are now a binding global legal agreement. It covers 196 countries worldwide, including all 194 WHO associate States.
The WHO thus gave itself the competence of a global crisis manager. For now, on an advisory and recommendations position.
IHR 2005 introduces the word PHEIC defined as ‘extraordinary event which has been considered to pose a threat to the public wellness of another countries as a consequence of the global spread of the illness and possibly requiring a coordinated global response’. This definition means a situation which is: serious, sudden, different or unexpected; has implications for public wellness outside the borders of the affected country; and may require immediate global action. It is impossible not to mention the fact that the definition of pandemic was changed in 2009 on the occasion of ‘exercise’ with swine flu virus. The so far advanced mortality criterion has ceased to be mandatory erstwhile announcing PHEIC, it has only become crucial that the illness occurs in many places at the same time in the world.
It is presently headed by Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus. I would ask you to bring this character closer and explain who or what made him elected to specified an crucial position?
– Why, who and how proposed Tedros' candidacy for specified a advanced position in the UN is simply a mystery. Tedros is known to have worked with the Clinton Foundation and Gates Foundation. He's the first manager not a doctor. Ethiopian generals, especially Jul Gelalcha, charged Tedros with genocide during the civilian war taking place in Ethiopia from 1991 to 2018. Similarly, David Steinman, an American economist who was an advisor to the Democratic movement, filed a complaint with the global Criminal Court in The Hague. He accuses the Director-General of the planet wellness Organization of aiding genocide in Ethiopia. erstwhile the Tibetan People's Liberation Front supported by the US took over the country after more than 30 years of communist regime, Tedros was first Deputy Minister, then, from 2005 to 2012, Minister of wellness and later Minister of abroad Affairs of Ethiopia until 2016. A pro-abortionist. Feminist organizations thanked him for giving Ethiopian women access to "high quality abortion". possibly the WHO needed a cynical genocidal killer for the first specified scale.
How did the WHO work during the pandemic?
– In the first phase, the global wellness Regulations IHR 2005 brought together an Extraordinary Situation Committee composed of global experts who supply method advice to the WHO Director-General in the context of a "state of public wellness emergency of global scope" (PHEIC). The Director-General shall take the final decision on the establishment of a public wellness emergency with an global scope of PHEIC and provisional recommendations for remedying the situation. This was the case at the gathering on 30 January 2020. An global public wellness emergency was announced, followed by guidance to the first countries, initially primarily China. Already at the beginning of the pandemic operation, Chief Executive Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus addressed the heads of all countries with these words: “We have a simple message for all countries: test, test, test”. The WHO recommendations included testing, individual protective measures, social distance behaviour, quarantine, treatment of patients with severe COVID-19, including, for example, the usage of remdesivir, lopinavir/ritonavir, interferon in combination with kaletra. This extended pharmaceutical treatment operation announced Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus himself on March 18, 2020. It was named SOLIDARITY and was financed by the Gates Foundation.
In addition, vaccination with vaccines from circumstantial manufacturers was recommended. The recommendations besides afraid wellness workforce policy and management in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic response.
Recommendations to limit meetings, move, control contacts, introduce and keep a nightly curfew, distant work and study, test travellers, restrict the free movement of travellers were straight addressed to associate States from the European Commission (COMMUNICATION FROM THE COMMISSION TO THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL Staying safe from COVID-19 during winter COM/2020/786). However, they besides resulted from the implementation of the 2005 IHR Regulations and the agreement reached on this issue during the 70th WHO/Europe Regional Committee Session in 2020. The proposal to join the EASA exchange platform to increase the ability to establish infectious contacts on the basis of a passenger location card and support efforts to make a common EU digital passenger location card has not been full implemented during the current pandemic. However, we have declarations from the Ministry of wellness to make up for this lack. The engagement of pharmaceutical companies, including vaccine manufacturers, is simply a clear conflict of interest and constitutes a gross violation of ethical and moral principles in the WHO's declared concern for the wellness of the people of the world.
How did the Polish authorities respond to the WHO recommendations at the time of the “pandemic”?
– We can say that in Poland all recommendations of the WHO were implemented with large overzealousness. We have implemented without questioning the most absurd ideas by censoring all the voices of criticism and preaching disobedience to unruly and unruly citizens. I think it best illustrates the justification of the ultimate Court itself. On 26 April 2023, 7 independent judges issued a judgement (III PPP 6/22/), which reads: (paragraph 26 of the Resolution):
"The pandemic for authorities around the planet has become an chance to leap and drasticly restrict the fundamental rights and freedoms of citizens introduced chaotically, thoughtlessly and frequently illegally under the pretext of protecting wellness and life. The authorities agreed on the individual freedom of citizens, freedom of movement, freedom of assembly, freedom of economical and professional activity, the right to education, the right to court, and the right to wellness care... It is besides widely known that wellness care was a pretext in the Polish legislative process for the unreflective adoption and introduction (especially in the mode of alleged parliamentary contributions or in the implementing package of regulations prepared by the authorities) of specified solutions which would not usually have 26 support for rationally reasoning and acting parliamentarians; not to mention parliamentarians respecting the Constitution of the Republic of Poland. Thus, between 2020 and 2021, there was an unprecedented accumulation of interference by the average legislature and the executive authority in the sphere of fundamental rights and freedoms of citizens. The scale of this interference is so crucial that it can be said, which is crucial for the application of the constitutional protection of civilian rights and freedoms, that the "exceeding of a certain critical mass" of negative changes in the sphere of all individual rights, not only in the area of the individual's right to court, which this right is about. The accumulation of these negative changes, taking into account the circumstances of their implementation and the analysis of the accompanying justification, affects the optics of assessing the conformity of the solutions with the national constitutional order and results in the assessment of compliance with the higher standards of the amendments introduced in court proceedings, as unreliable procedures indirectly destruct another rights and freedoms. In addition, greater care should be taken to justify the solutions introduced with the request for "health protection".
