WHO calls for world pandemic treaty to prepare for deadly ‘Disease X’

World Health Organization (WHO) Director-General Tedros Ghebreyesus has called on countries to sign on to the health organization’s pandemic treaty so the world can prepare for “Disease X.”

Ghebreyesus, speaking in front of an audience at the World Economic Forum in Davos on Wednesday, said that he hoped countries would reach a pandemic agreement by May to address this “common enemy.”

Disease X is a hypothetical “placeholder” virus that has not yet been formed, but scientists say it could be 20 times deadlier than COVID-19.

It was added to the WHO’s short list of pathogens for research in 2017 that could cause a “serious international epidemic,” according to a 2022 WHO press release.

Ghebreyesus said that COVID-19 was the first Disease X, but it’s important to prepare for another pandemic.

“There are things that are unknown that may happen, and anything happening is a matter of when, not if, so we need to have a placeholder for that, for the diseases we don’t know,” Ghebreyesus said.

“We lost many people [during COVID] because we couldn’t manage them,” Ghebreyesus said at the global confab. “They could have been saved, but there was no space. There was not enough oxygen. So how can you have a system that can expand when the need comes?”

He said that a shared response via the treaty would help the world better react to another outbreak.

Hmmm... emphases on "data-sharing" and "contact tracing."

Goodbye national sovereignty, and goodbye privacy, eh?

If they did what they should be doing, it is calling for the HALT of “gain of function” testing of deadly viruses and genomes. Call it a weapon of mass destruction and bomb the hell out of any lab that does it. But no, that’s not their agenda to prevent a worldwide catastrophe but enable it.

From what I been reading China is already is working on some more of this infectious crap and I wouldn’t doubt it if our government is doing the same. They just never give up.

“20 times more deadly”???
Where did they get that number, out of a hat?

Screw them. Sorry for the impolite language but that’s the most gentle word I could find.

If we immediately the entire WHO staff in federal prison for ten years, does anyone think there would be a “Disease X”?

No, me neither.
