THE United Nations General Assembly president has approved the non-binding UN declaration on Pandemic Prevention, Preparedness and Response (PPPR) - without a full assembly vote, and over the objections of 11 nations.
Critics called the declaration - which seeks to create a global pandemic authority with the power to enforce lockdowns, universal vaccination and censorship of 'misinformation' - 'hypocrisy' and 'unhinged'.
For supporters, the declaration is a key step towards international coordination in pandemic prevention and public health.
According to the World Health Organisation, it 'presents an opportunity... to prevent and prepare for pandemics and their consequences, using an approach that involves all government sectors.' The WHO also said the PPPR aims to 'apply lessons learned from the covid-19 pandemic' and 'comes as the world faces multiple humanitarian and climate-related crises which are threatening lives and livelihoods around the world.' In a statement, WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said: 'If covid-19 taught us nothing else, it's that when health is at risk, everything is at risk.' He linked the PPPR to the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), saying world leaders should 'show they have learned the painful lessons of the pandemic.' Other experts took a different view.
Author and podcaster Frank Gaffney, founder and president of the Center for Security Policy, told The Defender website it is 'very worrying' that the UN and WHO 'will further encourage, if not actually authorise, the kind of standing capability or authority on their part to essentially dictate what constitutes emergencies.
