We are told that, in a world of multiplying health emergencies, it has become necessary to give up some independence in return for safety.
The World Health Organization is not independent, and is significantly privately directed.
In ceding power to the WHO, democratic States are therefore sharing decision-making power over the health of their own citizens with these non-democratic states, some of whom will have geopolitical reasons to restrict a democratic state's people and harm its economy.
Public health experience tells us that addressing such preventable or treatable diseases is the best way to lengthen lives and promote sustainable good health.
This involves empowering communities to manage their own health.
It makes no sense to grant a foreign-based, poorly unaccountable institution powers that contradict democratic norms and good public health policy.
The public relations departments of the prospective beneficiaries of this perpetual health emergency project would like us to believe it is.
