A Conversation with Lord Sumption
All despotisms – or almost all despotisms – believe that it is for the good of the people that they are being deprived of their freedom of action.

The WHO’s structure makes it the only major international health institution that countries alone can actually force to reform. It simply needs sufficient Member States of the WHA to force exclusion of private interests.
Unaddressed Issues after WHO Withdrawal Read Journal Article
We agree that the international community should continue to support less-resourced members. However, we disagree that this should consist of perpetual and increasing payments to centralized agencies such as GFATM, GAVI, and the Pandemic Fund, or donor bureaucracies like USAID.
Rethinking US Global Health Funding: Welcome, and Long Overdue Read Journal Article
If it is indeed the case that our authorities and their supporters within the public health community consider that powers currently vested within national jurisdictions should be given over to external bodies on the basis of this level of recorded harm, it would be best to have a public conversation as to whether this is sufficient basis for abandoning democratic ideals in favor of a more fascist or otherwise authoritarian approach. We are, after all, talking about restricting basic human rights essential for a democracy to function.
To simply vote no would leave the current situation – the situation that led to the many Covid-19 pandemic failures – unaddressed. But any putative “benefit” of the new treaty is likely to be marginal at best. More importantly, the treaty and amendments as they are currently written do enormous, identifiable harm and would leave everyone, except those with stakes in Big Pharma, IT services, and global finance, far worse off.
The Pandemic Treaty Will Compound Past Mistakes Read Journal Article
There has been a fundamental shift in our relationship with the people and organizations who make policies and direct how the world is run. They laid the groundwork during Covid and are busy planning the next pandemic, and a whole host of initiatives, calling for drastic changes to how we live. The first step in healing from emotional abuse is to recognize the abuse. The next step is to make a change so the abuse does not continue.
Open Letter to an Emotionally Abused World Read Journal Article
We need an exit strategy from external dependency in order to achieve health independence. This is what sustainability and equity mean, words of which global health profiteers are so fond. These changes need to be sector-wide, not just the WHO.
Global Health Reform Must Go Far Beyond WHO Read Journal Article
The W.H.O’s rousing endorsement of the “China model” of lockdowns should have been considered “junk science” before the governments of the world pulled the trigger on these “virus-mitigation” mandates, civil-liberty-eviscerating dictates which also caused a public health disaster for the people of the world.
WHO’s Edict Caused the Lockdown Disaster Read Journal Article
The WHO’s funding arrangements, its track record, and the perverse nature of its proposed pandemic response should be enough to render these proposed agreements anathema in democratic States. If implemented, they should make WHO unfit to receive public funding or provide health advice. The international community can benefit from coordination in health, but it would be reckless to entrust that role to an organization clearly serving other interests.
Why Legislators Should Reject the WHO’s Proposals for Pandemics Read Journal Article
The question that’s been gnawing at me is why would it be so important to push the start date of virus spread back several months?
