- E-mail to UK Column: URGENT: WHO CAMPAIGN—DEADLINE 1st DECEMBER (shared in full)
“Save Our Rights and the UK Medical Freedom Alliance have just launched a last-minute campaign to Reject the Amendment to Article 59 of the International Health Regulations (2005) that was adopted at the 76th WHA in May 2022. The time period for Member States to reject these amendments ends on 1 December 2023.
This is a precursor to the main campaign against the 300+ amendments and the Pandemic Treaty that will launch in January [2024]. Are you able to speak about it this week on the UK Column? It would be brilliant to have your help to spread the word. There's also some good news to report, as Estonia, New Zealand, and Slovakia are pushing back.
Estonia’s Parliament [editorial note: actually only 11 members of parliament], on 22 November, formally rejected the current IHR amendments, as well as the proposed future amendments and the international pandemic treaty, with 92 of the 101 Riigikogu members voting against them.
New Zealand, through its coalition agreements announced on 24 November, reserved its position against adopting these amendments by 1 December 2023, pending a ‘National Interest Test’. This step highlights the importance of ensuring that international health regulations align with national interests and priorities.
Furthermore, President Fico of Slovakia, in a speech at the SMER party conference on 17 November, declared that the Slovakian constitution would require the consent of the National Council of the Slovak Republic for such amendments. He affirmed that he would not support measures that strengthen the WHO at the expense of national sovereignty.
We have prepared letters for people to send to the Health Secretary and their MP in just a couple of clicks. Here's the campaign page with all the info.
Louise will also be doing a live tonight at 7 pm about this campaign. Here's the link for that.”
