The World Changed Today and No One Batted An Eye

The entire landscape of how the world operates changed right before our very eyes today, yet few batted an eye. In the global address by the World Health Organization, they were careful to pat China on the back for their transparency and valiant efforts, but moved the alert up a level. I was confused because we know the quarantine has not been observed. We know flights are coming and going. We have mixed messaging coming from every direction.

Cleverly woven into the language of this global address was the justification for this latest move of WHO seemingly taking control. It seems China is not prepared to lose business or travel over this virus, so the WHO has instead decided to focus on vulnerable populations to limit the spread. In the past nations could exert pressure in how other nations dealt with issues that could affect them, like pandemics. Today that all changed because that is not sustainable under the goals of Agenda 2030.

This is how corporate interests legally came to supersede the interests of nations and our very humanity, all in the name of global sustainability.
