After the U.S. left the World Health Organization (WHO) for reasons that were mostly related to how the WHO handled the Covid-19 plandemic, the organization is now leading its remaining member states down a path that ends with a “pandemic treaty.”
WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus claimed the agreement signaled to the world that “in our divided world, nations can still work together to find common ground and a shared response.”

Five years after COVID-19 triggered national lockdowns, economic uncertainty and killed millions, the World Health Organization’s member countries agreed on a draft “pandemic treaty” that sets guidelines for how the international community might confront the next global health crisis.
After the world’s largely disastrous response to the coronavirus, countries tasked the WHO with overseeing a pandemic treaty in 2021; negotiations concluded early Wednesday on an agreement expected to be adopted next month at the U.N. health agency’s annual meeting in Geneva.
WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus heralded it as a historic moment, saying countries have proven that “in our divided world, nations can still work together to find common ground and a shared response.”
Following U.S. President Donald Trump’s decision to withdraw the country from the WHO in January, American officials were barred from participating in the talks and are not expected to sign the treaty. During COVID-19, it was largely American research and development that produced the most effective vaccines and medicines.
Weeks after Trump’s decision, Argentina’s President Javier Milei also exited the WHO, citing “profound differences” with the U.N. agency.
Rachael Crockett, of the advocacy group Drugs for Neglected Diseases Initiative, described the draft pandemic treaty as “a product of compromise.” She said it contained strong provisions, but only if countries chose to implement them. “This could change what we saw in COVID, when some populations didn’t get access to what they needed.”
A new mRNA vaccine has just been fast-tracked by President Donald Trump that promises to talk the current avian flu outbreak among American chickens that has led to egg price spiking that are only now beginning to come down. The vaccine is called ARCT-2304, developed by Arcturus Therapeutics.

The Trump administration has granted Fast Track designation to a groundbreaking — and controversial — self-amplifying mRNA (sa-mRNA) vaccine candidate targeting the H5N1 avian influenza virus.
The vaccine, ARCT-2304, developed by Arcturus Therapeutics, is now in Phase 1 trials and has been positioned by federal health authorities as a front-line defense against a potential bird flu pandemic.
The designation, announced April 10, was awarded by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in partnership with the Department of Health and Human Services and its Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA).
The Fast Track designation from the FDA expedites the review of drugs intended for serious or life-threatening conditions that demonstrate the potential to address unmet medical needs.
This designation aims to get new treatments to patients faster by encouraging more frequent communication between the FDA and the drug developer and allowing for a rolling review of the application.
A new study from Michigan State University claims that the percentage of “childless adults” who say they are committed to never having children has risen from 14% in 2002 to 29% in 2022. The percentage of childless adults who said they plan on having children in the future fell in that same time gap from 79% to 56%.

The percentage of childless U.S. adults who say they never want children has doubled over the span of 20 years, rising from 14% in 2002 to 29% in 2023, a new study discovered.
The research, performed by a team at Michigan State University, used data from the National Survey of Family Growth to analyze 80,000 adults’ attitudes toward having children, MSUToday reported. In addition to fewer people desiring children, the percentage of childless adults who plan to have children in the future also fell, going from 79% to 59% across the same time frame.
Dr. Tom Shimabukuro, the former director of the CDC’s Immunization Safety Office under Joe Biden, appears to have allegedly deleted government data. The data feared lost is covid-19 vaccine results data that will show the true depth, breadth, and severity of side effects from the mandated covid-19 vaccines.
Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) sent a letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi, FBI Director Kash Patel, and acting HHS watchdog Juliet Hodgkins, to assure criminal investigative action was taken on this matter. He wrote “HHS officials recently informed me that Dr. Shimabukuro’s records remain lost and, potentially, removed from HHS’s email system altogether. Dr. Shimabukuro’s potential mishandling of his official records is highly concerning… Any attempt to obstruct or interfere with my investigatory efforts would be grounds for contempt of Congress.”

A top official at the Center for Disease Control is now being accused of deleting records pertaining to the COVID vaccine’s negative side affects.
The Department of Health and Human Services notified Sen. Ron Johnson that certain documents requested under subpoena could not be found. DHS officials believe they were deleted or destroyed.
Now, Sen. Ron Johnson is calling for an investigation into Dr. Tom Shimabukuro, the director of the CDC’s Immunization Office, who is suspected of mishandling and deleting the records.
This is a serious offense, punishable by up to 12 months behind bars and a six-figure fine.
