On June 5th, 2023 the unelected officials at the World Health Organization (WHO) in partnership with the unelected officials at the European Commission (EC), part of the governing body of the European Union (EU), unveiled plans for a digital health certificate program. 

The press release declares,

“WHO will take up the European Union (EU) system of digital COVID-19 certification to establish a global system that will help facilitate global mobility and protect citizens across the world from on-going and future health threats, including pandemics.” 

The report goes on to state,

“This is the first building block of the WHO Global Digital Health Certification Network (GDHCN) that will develop a wide range of digital products to deliver better health for all.”

The initial platform of the global WHO digital surveillance system is set to become operational in June 2023, based on the EU’s already existing Digital Covid Certificate, which was sold under the pretense of, “mak[ing] it easier for you to travel safely through the EU by showing that you have been vaccinated, had a negative test result or recovered from COVID-19.”

The plan is for this digitized vaccine passport system to be rolled into the GDHCN, run by the WHO, and amplified to include, “a wide range of digital products to deliver better health for all.” 

The WHO’s global vaccine passport system is ultimately positioned to penetrate into the domain of all vaccinations, “a staged approach to cover additional use cases,” including the “digitisation of the International Certificate of Vaccination or Prophylaxis.

Placed in the context of the recently proposed Pandemic Treaty and the WHO’s pursuit of changes to International Health Regulation (IHR) amendments, each of which strengthens the WHO’s authority, this latest development can only be seen as another power grab to set up the WHO as global enforcer and sole arbiter of public health.

While early warnings about vaccine passports associated with the Covid Crisis were dismissed as crackpot theories, we are witnessing, with the introduction of the WHO digital health certificate, how these predictions are being forged into reality.

Given who finances (here, here, and here and manages) the World Health Organization it would be illogical to conclude that these digitized “health certificates” are genuinely designed to ‘make our lives easier.’

A reasoned analysis could conclude that the introduction of this digitized “health passport” would allow the WHO to essentially erect a global biosafety governance system that would track private data and behavior and eliminate health privacy – and freedom – for all people.

Make no mistake, beneath the noble sounding verbiage this is another attempt by unelected, unaccountable technocrats and health bureaucrats to implement their dystopian global biosecurity state, in other words, an open air digital prison for those who do not accede to public health dictates.

The implications of this global vaccine certification and digitized control system cannot be ignored.This represents an attack on everyone’s bodily autonomy while erasing national sovereignty and human rights.

This must be stopped.
