Op-ed:
Politics, the W.H.O. and COVID-19

“
Today I’m instructing my administration to halt funding of
the WHO while a review is conducted to assess the WHO’s role in
severely mismanaging and covering up the spread of the coronavirus.”
- President Donald Trump at last Tuesday's
coronavirus press briefing
And with our president's ever so rightfully spoken words, we now
are baring witness to both supposed world health experts and the
Democrats here at home stating that our president's decision to cut
funding to the World Health Organization (W.H.O.) is a
“crime
against humanity” and a
“damnable act" that will
cost many more lives. And these folks do so while ignoring the fact
that it was the W.H.O. together with China that orchestrated a
self-protective cover-up that led to the situation we now face today.
In fact, not only did U.N. Secretary General Antonio Guterres state
that the W.H.O. is
“absolutely critical to the world’s efforts
to win the war against Covid-19,” but House Speaker Nancy
Pelosi herself not only continues to weaponize this disease for
political gain, but said that Trump's cutting off funding to the
W.H.O. is,
“Dangerous, illegal, and will be swiftly challenged,” adding that,
“We can only be successful in defeating this global pandemic
through a coordinated international response with respect for science
and data.”
So I guess Ms. Pelosi, like most Democrats,
never heard of American exceptionalism in regards to problem solving
let alone the fact that most of the data, numbers, and projected
statistics to date...which helped to initiate and sustain the
mainstream media's generated call to panic... all have been wrong
regarding not only the number of people infected here in the U.S.,
but also helped in skewing the COVID-19 death count numbers as well. And when you
compare the projected number of ventilators that would be needed to the actual
number of ventilators used, you can see why President Trump had to do
what he did.
But the truth is that President Trump has not permanently cut
funding to the W.H.O. (which is
part
of the United Nations Sustainable Development Group), but
simply put funding
“on hold” for 60-90 days pending what
is a much needed review of both the W.H.O.'s actions and inactions in
regards to the worldwide spread of COVID-19. And with our country
being the single largest contributor to the W.H.O.'s annual
budget...a contributor to a tune of $893 million during its current
two-year funding cycle which translates into roughly15% of its
operating budget...China on the other hand, ground zero of this
entire sorted mess, pays but 0.2% of the W.H.O.'s said budget. What a
sweetheart of a deal this is for an organization that is not now nor has
it ever really been America's friend.
Most definitely not our friend for the W.H.O. knew months before
the world did just how contagious COVID-19 was, and hid that fact
while the death count outside of China continued to rise. And the
W.H.O. also knew of China's restrictions placed upon the sharing of
research into the virus as well as their remaining silent as to the
sudden
“disappearance” of numerous researchers and
doctors... some of whom tried to warn world leaders as to the truth
about what was happening in Wuhan.
Simply, China, the W.H.O., and the United Nations itself via their
collective silence have led some to believe that maybe this was a
secretly agreed to
“culling of the herd” so to speak...as
in a stealth initiation into beginning the implementation of population control as per
U.N. Agenda 30...with COVID-19 being used as a bio-weapon of sorts.
And while the conspiratorists are indeed pushing just this type of
scenario, know that coronaviruses are common in nature. But
also know that what is not common is China's duplicity and the
W.H.O.'s complicity in withholding the truth while callously
watching, as I write this, over 2.6 million people becoming ill with
over 150,000 dying from COVID-19. And if truth about the virus had
been forthcoming...especially that an accidental release of the virus
had occurred...it would have helped to contain COVID-19's worldwide
spread, thus equating into many of the disease's casualties being
alive today.
Remember, it's been well known for quite some time that The Wuhan
Institute of Virology (W.I.V.)...who in 2015 was the first bio-research lab
in China to have received the highest level of international
"bio-research
safety"... as in BSL-4...had for years been conducting coronavirus
experiments on small animals including horseshoe bats. These animals gotten from caves in Yunnan, China, were then deliberately infected
with viruses and other nasties with the W.I.V. then
selling these now sick animals to the infamous
“wet markets”
for human consumption after experimentation on them was completed.
And the
“wet markets” is where COVID-19 was first
unintentionally transferred human-to-human by what appears to be
either a decontamination accident or carelessness by a bio-research lab technician
who thought or hoped that he or she was successfully decontaminated,
then went into the markets to shop or eat not aware that he or her
was still carrying the live virus on their person.
So no matter what the conspiratorists say or want you to believe,
there is no evidence whatsoever that COVID-19 was engineered as a
bio-weapon as leading independent scientists from around the world
have agreed that this naturally occurring virus jumped from
animals...in this case horseshoe bats...to man...via
naturally occurring cross-species contamination. And while this
conclusion was reached by studying the virus' genetic code, as in its
DNA and its RNA sequencing, that doesn't mean that COVID-19 didn't inadvertently come from the
Wuhan lab via the above referred to accidental transmission.
A sad and could have been prevented occurrence indeed, but again
not a deliberate act of bio-terrorism by China. But, and this is
critical, if China had not remained silent our country would not be
one of the hardest hit by COVID-19...hit to the tune of having the
highest number of cases in the world as well as the highest number of
deaths. And again as I write this, we have recorded 714,387 cases of
the virus, with 37,303 deaths here in the U.S.
But even worse than China and the W.H.O.'s silence is the fact
that back in January and March 2018, as per The New York Post, Wuhan
Council General Jamison Fouss together with Rick Switzer our
embassy's Counselor of Environment, Science, and Technology, visited
the W.I.V. level 4 bio-research labs at China's invitation, and then after said
visits they sent two diplomatic cables...cables that were categorized as
“Sensitive But
Unclassified”...to Washington over safety concerns they witnessed
on both visit
s. And what's critical here is that the first
cable expressed both their concerns that the bio-research lab’s work on bat
coronaviruses had a risk for potential human
transmission...transmission that they said could cause a new
SARS-like pandemic as the bats experimented on likely came from the
same bat population that spawned the 2003 SARS pandemic...as well as
their concerns about what they said was a serious shortage of
appropriately trained bio-research lab technicians...bio-research lab technicians like the one
who went into the
“wet markets” unknowingly carrying the
virus.
And for the conspiracy sorts, know there is a key difference between
a bio-research lab and a bio-weapons lab...as in a bio-research lab's aim
is to study pathogens to help prevent the spread of disease while a bio-weapons lab aims to manipulate
pathogens to possibly release them into the general population at a given ordered time. Even the two cables sent by our embassy officials refer to the W.I.V. lab as a bio-research lab not a bio-weapons lab. And besides, we now know that COVID-19 is spread via person-to-person contact, meaning there is no
"fallout" left behind. A bio-weapon would leave some sort of
"fallout" whether it be in the air, in the water, or in the soil, and no such
"fallout" has been detected anywhere the virus has surfaced.
Now as for the cables themselves...if
“certain folks” in Washington
knew about these two cables but kept quiet... cables that I believe might have been kept
from President Trump by those in the State Department still loyal
to Obama...they were doing so to hide the fact that is was under the
Obama administration that we actually helped build and finance the
W.I.V. bio-research lab. And Obama probably claimed that in doing so it would help China
“get up to par” in global life sciences research no matter that
this area in China was an already known epicenter of previous virus
outbreaks. And with the W.H.O. being in China's pocket they probably
also knew about the two diplomatic cables sent, but willfully chose
not to say anything about them as well.
So what exactly does President Trump hope to accomplish by his
rightly saying that,
“The W.H.O. failed in this basic duty
(as in to sound the alarm)
and must be held accountable.” There
are five areas of concern, I believe, that must be addressed before
the WHO is not only considered for refunding but trusted by the U.S.
again.
First, while accountability in regards to China means that they
must
“fess up” and tell the truth about where, when, and
how the virus escaped and then spread, the W.H.O... supposedly the world's
health and epidemic control police force...must explain exactly why
they took China’s word about the virus
“at face value”
while at the same time they failed to share information about why said
virus was spreading so rapidly. And this is important
because back in early March, Taiwan accused the W.H.O. of failing to
publish early warnings from Taiwanese medical officials that the
coronavirus could be spread via human-to-human transmission.
Second, the W.H.O.-China connection itself must be fully explained
including why it took six days before Chinese President Xi Jinping
told the world about the dangers posed by the COVID-19 outbreak in
Wuhan, and also why the W.H.O. again kept quiet and did not declare a
global health emergency until early this past January when it now
appears that they knew about Wuhan as well as how the virus was
spread since at least early November 2019.
Third, we need to know why China with no objections from the
W.H.O. allowed people to travel from Wuhan to other points in China
and beyond.
Fourth, why did Bill Gates, Microsoft's co-founder, cover the
W.H.O.'s back by stating that cutting off funds to the W.H.O.
“is
as dangerous as it sounds,” and why did he and the W.H.O.'s
secretary general together call out President Trump on his placing
travel restrictions on China while failing to do so regarding China
itself.
And fifth but far from last, what is the personal connection and
what exactly is there for China to gain from said connection between
the W.H.O.'s Secretary-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus and
Beijing...does it involve monetary gain or is it a U.N. politically
sanctioned power grab by China, or something else completely.
So now as China is upping its death toll by 50%, and as our
country tries to figure out ways to hold China tangibly
accountable...if that is even possible...the fact remains that China
did indeed whitewash the coronavirus outbreak in Wuhan and did so
from the very beginning with help from the W.H.O. And to that affect
politics once again has set in as Republican Sen. Marsha Blackburn
from Tennessee along with Sen. Martha McSally from Arizona are
sponsoring a bill that would allow Americans affected by COVID-19 to
sue the Chinese government for its lies and cover-ups both of which
aided in the spread of the virus here in the U.S. And while this is a
noble gesture it is not a realistic one unless proof positive of a
deliberate and malicious spread could be proven...which I personally
don't think will happen.

And on the Democrat front, as usual Nancy Pelosi and crew...who
together are still holding up the CARES Act loans and grants to small
businesses...want yet another investigative committee set up to not
only look into the virus itself and China's duplicity in its spread,
but to try and hold President Trump responsible for the virus gaining
a stronghold here in the U.S. while he's busy trying to get America's economy up and running again. Guess this is Pelosi's
“Trump
Must Go” part four...or is it part five or even part six by
now.
So while
“We the People” digest President Trump's
recently announced three-part plan to reopen America's economy, a
plan that would allow people to get back to work and businesses to
reopen, the overall
“social distancing” mandate still
remains in place, at least for another few weeks. And it does so
while the media and the press continue to relish in the revenue and
ratings boost that their 24/7 COVID-19 panic based coverage affords
them...and they do so while we remain prisoners in our homes with
nowhere to go, with little to do.
