Most people, including government officials, have never heard of the WHO’s Pathogen Access and Benefit Sharing (“PABS”) System and do not know of the dangers it represents.  The purpose of the PABS System is to “promot[e] the rapid and timely sharing of ‘materials and sequence information on pathogens with pandemic potential.’”  (Article 12 of the Pandemic Treaty). This system threatens to concentrate the world’s most deadly pathogens into the hands of unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats under the influence of the pharmaceutical industry.  The WHO will then share these pathogens with labs all over the world, ostensibly to develop vaccines, diagnostics and other therapeutics.

This system poses a significant risk of escalating the chances of pandemics caused by lab leaks, as well as bio-terrorist attacks.  These in turn will likely increase the profits of the pharmaceutical industry and will give governments so inclined the pretext to keep people under lockdown and deprive them of their human rights.

Meanwhile, an “Urgent Legal Notice” regarding the PABS System, issued by Dr. Silvia Behrendt at the Global Health Responsibility Agency, concludes, “. . . the present PABS design is institutionally and legally indefensible.”

Reggie Littlejohn, J.D., M.Div, is an attorney from the U.S.  She is founder and president of Anti-Globalist International and Women’s Rights Without Frontiers, as well as co-founder of the Sovereignty Coalition.

Silvia Behrendt, Ph.D. is an Austrian legal scholar specializing in international health law and the International Health Regulations (IHR), with both academic and practical experience at the World Health Organization (WHO). She is currently director of the Global Health Responsibility Agency (GHRA), Salzburg, Austria; former legal consultant to IHR Secretariat at WHO.
