Official Statements
Several nations and non-state sctors have submitted official statements regarding the proposed amendments to the International Health Regulations and the "Pandemic Agreement."
The United States submitted the following statement in regards to the proposed “Pandemic Agreement.”
The United States remains deeply committed to strengthening global pandemic prevention, preparedness, and response. The COVID-19 pandemic has taken a heavy toll, and we must take effective steps to improve our collective readiness – this is our shared responsibility.
We firmly believe in the importance of multilateral engagement, and we have played an active and constructive role in the Pandemic Agreement negotiations. This agreement is an integral part of a wider effort to put in place the policies and systems necessary to strengthen the global health architecture and better tackle future pandemics.
We were all very disappointed that we were unable to finalize a consensus agreement last week. Unfortunately, it became apparent that fundamental differences remain on core issues central to the Agreement.
These are complex technical issues that require extensive deliberation and carefully crafted, workable solutions, inspired by a common vision and supported by all Member States.
Over the past two years, we have worked tirelessly to address the key components of pandemic PPR, and we should be proud of our achievements thus far.
The Pandemic Agreement must include firm commitments, including on pandemic prevention and One Health, rapid and open sample and data sharing with a clearly defined menu of benefit sharing obligations, and timely and equitable sharing of life-saving medical countermeasures during a pandemic emergency.
We believe finalizing this work and delivering on our mandate will advance global health security in a more equitable manner. We do not believe an extension of just a few months will achieve this, and we do not recommend that this body issue a mandate for failure.
We need sufficient time to adequately address outstanding issues or we once again risk running out of time without consensus, threatening to damage the reputation of WHO, and severely jeopardizing the opportunity we have before us to make the world safer.
In order to set ourselves up for the highest likelihood of success, we believe an extension of one to two years is necessary, along with revised modalities, to allow for a more deliberative, thoughtful and effective process, which would include time for proper consultations with experts and stakeholders and consideration for the practical realities of smaller delegations.
This refresh would enable us to resume negotiations on all articles with the goal of concluding an agreement that addresses the full spectrum of pandemic PPR.
It is critically important we reach an agreement that lives up to our collective vision -- a world safer from the risk posed by infectious disease threats, regardless of where they arise.
We look forward to constructively engaging through the drafting group this week to determine the best path forward.
Thank you.

The old system is crumbling, and we must build its replacement quickly.

Just now recovering from the anti-WHO protest march in Tokyo, yesterday May 31. Guessing between 10,000 to 30,000 showed up, and of course, not a peep in mainstream media. Will edit and upload video in a day or two, but now can be found on X. Yours truly wearing my "Arrest Fauci" t-shirt at 8:33 — https://x.com/kazu_uracorona/status/1796529845457043557?t=y5Gvn5qNTtZVIfnUuhe71A&s=19&fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR3NvMCIZj-UDe1WkBvWoSKIfLaIx5KuBYM7Occ6suqq20hlKIfkmhy-k8k_aem_AWa5nv1mo9R9Zw7FTaM3SbktmCaPKnL4AJ7s3KKnaD7hJTe-jfqQ0mWAee9GqUWUyZglKh1XwusHaah_L3rhRLx5
p.s. Just found out from X Japan ... estimated between 40,000 and 50,000!
We need to remove ourselves from the UN, WHO, IMF, NATO and any other nefarious organization. Globalism and globalists need to be removed from our vocabulary and replaced with nationalism and nationalists.
I couldn’t care less what other countries decide to do. Their leaders make decisions for their countries. We made a decision to give power to the UN, WHO, etc., and we can make a decision to take that power back.
And while we are at it….stop the stupid talk about carbon and buying carbon credits. What a load of crap. I am a property underwriter for 34 years. I have done all my own catastrophe modeling all that time. We have WEATHER that changes. Climate change is wealth transfer. We need to STOP global thinking and care only about the USA. We will never get China or India to stop using coal or building coal plants. Let’s worry about ourselves, stop the CIA from meddling in other countries and seal our boarder to every illegal immigrant.
WE ARE UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO TAKE CARE OF THE WORLD OR OTHER NATIONS. We are only responsible for ourselves. Let’s stop taking care of other nations and fix the one we live in first. And let’s start with ditching the UN and the WHO. They are run by Marxist/Communist people. Let’s stop playing their game and make up our own! 🇺🇸❤️
