The issue of whether WHO exaggerated the threat of the swine flu in order to allow pharmaceutical industry to make huge profits is set to be the focus of a report by the Council of Europe (CoE) that could lead to parliamentary inquiries being opened in a number of European countries.
Paul Flynn, Labour MP and a member of the CoE’s Public Administration Committee, is to be appointed rapporteur, tasked with preparing a report on the fake pandemic to be presented to the parliamentary assembly of the European Union’s human right’s watchdog during the spring or summer session.
The Assembly Bureau has to still give its formal approval to the report when it meets on Friday. But the Bureau will find it hard to turn down the request for a further investigation into the fake pandemic in view of the indignation that the public hearing in the CoE generated this morning among MPs and journalists.
WHO’s pandemic chief Dr Keiji Fukuda faced severe criticism over the organization’s failure to address the evidence that it had declared a pandemic to serve the interests of pharmaceutical companies.
Fukuda’s statement that WHO was determined to maintain the pandemic level 6 emergency for the next two years over the mild swine flu was met with incomprehension.
WHO was accused of failing to learn from its mistakes.
The precise recommendation or resolution that MPs in the Council of Europe will be asked to vote on will crystallize at the end stage of the report’s preparation, a press officer said.
However, any draft recommendation or resolution is likely to highlight the need for sweeping new measures to ensure transparency in the government public health decision-making process, and that measures are implemented on the basis of adequate independent, critical and scientific evidence – and not for the profit of pharmaceutical industries.
Other key issues that need to be highlighted are WHO’s decision to recommend a vaccine with the untested and toxic adjuvant, squalene, as well as the militarization of the management of a pandemic under WHO’s International Health Regulations 2005.
These allow forced vaccination and quarantine. The IHR 2005, implemented in national pandemic plans, also criminalize people suspected of having an infectious disease.
A report into the European government’s collusion with the CIA in the abduction and torture of terrorism suspects was published by Dicky Marty of the Council of Europe in 2006, and triggered widespread public debate and led to changes in legislation in many European countries.
The next key date to watch for is Friday when the Assembly Bureau will meet to discuss the request for a report.
If the report goes ahead, it could result in revelations that will shock the European public and lead to pressure for radical overhaul of the way national and international governments function.
