The Johns Hopkins Center for Civilian Biodefense Studies was founded

Established in September 1998, the Johns Hopkins University Center for Civilian Biodefense Studies was created to increase national and international awareness of the medical and public health threats posed by biological weapons, such as anthrax and smallpox, that terrorists can use to unleash mass destruction on a population. Originally seeded with monies from the schools of Public Health and Medicine, the center then received funding Congress, the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and a few private philanthropists. The founding director was Donald Ainslie Henderson, a longtime dean of the School of Public Health, who "was concerned about the nation's lack of preparation in the event of a biological attack". Then Dr Tara O'Toole served as director from 2001 to 2003. By February 1999, the Center holds their first "response to bioterrorism" symposium. The name of the group was later changed to the Centre for Health Security (CHS), a less military-like name, yet for decades to follow they continued to hold "war game" exercises, simulating responses to bio-terrorist attacks and outbreaks. The outcome of the scripted simulations "usually ended in a need to control the populace, by which behavioral modification techniques are used to enforce cooperation" of..> READ MORE

9/11 Twin Tower terrorist attack

Two hijacked commercial aircraft crashed into each of the World Trade Center twin towers in New York city, and another into the Pentagon building. On that day 3 building in New York, the twin towers and World Trade Center 7 all "pancaked" down onto their foundations, the latter was not hit by any aircraft! Chances?. [1] This event triggered an enormous US effort to combat terrorism, a "threat" that from this point on, became real in the minds of the global community. "The crises of 2001 led to a cultural shift in how public health, emergency management, and medical experts think about national security....Health departments became accepted as important partners by traditional emergency management."

WHO declares novel H1N1 influenza a pandemic

On June 11, 2009, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the novel influenza A (H1N1) virus (called Swine Flu) had reached Phase 6 of their April 2009 (updated from 2005) version of the pandemic influenza preparedness and response, PIP guidelines.  Phase 6 was a designation that indicated a global pandemic was underway, justified as a new virus spreading beyond 2 countires and highlighted the "need to implement resonse and mitigation efforts". [1, 2, 3] 0n April 29, 2009 the WHO reported a new H1N1 influenza virus had emerged in 9 countries and spread to 74 by June 11, 2009, thus triggering the first global flu pandemic in 40 years.  On June 11, 2009, the WHO Director General Dr Margaret Chan declared  "the world is now at the start of the 2009 influenza pandemic."  Except the virus was milder than a normal influenza outbreak, and a month earlier (May 6, 2009) the WHO changed the  definition of what criteria constitute "a pandemic"! [1, 2, 3] There was a big push for a fast-tracked vaccine, and 4 months after the declared pandemic, in October 2009 the vaccines rolled out, with manufacturers indemnified! Depending on the countries regulator, clinical trials were either 4..> READ MORE

Bill Gates’ “prophecy” at Munich Security Conference – CEPI: to enable a vaccine in 90 days or less

"Prophetic" quotes from Bill Gates speech [1] at the Munich Security Conference on February 17, 2017 , setting the stage f: "I decided 20 years ago to make global health the focus of my philanthropic work"...I spend a lot of my time on the effort to eradicate polio... It's also true that the next epidemic could originate on the computer screen of a terrorist intent on using genetic engineering to create a synthetic version of the smallpox virus . . . or a super contagious and deadly strain of the flu....The point is, we ignore the link between health security and international security at our peril. The good news is that with advances in biotechnology, new vaccines and drugs can help prevent epidemics from spreading out of control. Vaccines can be especially important in containing epidemics. But today, it typically takes up to 10 years to develop and license a new vaccine. To significantly curb deaths from a fast-moving airborne pathogen, we would have to get that down considerably—to 90 days or less. We took an important step last month with the launch of a new public-private partnership called the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI). The hope is that CEPI..> READ MORE

WHO setting up for Global Vaccine Passports

On February 23, 2022, the WHO selects subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom called T-Systems as the contractor to "standardize the issuing of QR codes" for 194 member states for an intended global vaccine passport. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] In August 2021 the WHO released technical specifications and guidance document for Digital Vaccine Passports to countries. [5] The global digital passport system will be designed for ALL vaccines, not just COVID-19 vaccines, somewhere between 260 and 300 vaccines are in the developmental pipeline, and now with mRNA vaccine technology being "accepted" for COVID-19, that number vaccines "justified" for "disease control" could increase substantially.
