WHO official's advice to stop vaccine passports was ignored

TESTIFYING in a lawsuit, one of the World Health Organisation's leading vaccine experts is understood to have claimed she advised against covid vaccine passports.

Journalist Ike Novikoff reported how the WHO's Dr Hanna Nohynek testified in court that she advised her government in Finland that vaccine passports were not needed, but was ignored.

This was despite her explaining that the covid vaccines did not stop virus transmission and the passports gave a "false sense of security".

It is understood she made these claims in a Helsinki courtroom where Finnish citizen Mika Vauhkala is suing his government and a cafe after he was denied entry to that cafe for not having a vaccine passport.

Dr Nohynek is chief physician at the Finnish Institute for Health and Welfare and serves as the WHO's chair of Strategic Group of Experts on immunisation.
