Plans for a global pandemic preparedness agreement risk falling apart amid wrangling and disinformation, according to the chief of the World Health Organization, who has warned that future generations \u201cmay not forgive us\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Shaken by the Covid-19 pandemic, the WHO\u2019s 194 member states decided more than two years ago to start negotiating an international accord aimed at ensuring countries are better equipped to deal with the next health catastrophe, or to prevent it altogether. The plan was to seal the agreement at the 2024 World Health Assembly, the WHO\u2019s decision-making body, which convenes on 27 May. However, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the WHO\u2019s director-general, said the momentum had been slowed down by entrenched positions and \u201ca torrent of fake news, lies, and conspiracy theories\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>He warned that if nobody was prepared to seize the initiative or give ground, the whole project risked going nowhere. Tedros told the WHO\u2019s executive board in Geneva on Monday: \u201cTime is very short. And there are several outstanding issues that remain to be resolved.\u201d Failure to strike an agreement would be \u201ca missed opportunity for which future generations may not forgive us\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n<p>Tedros said all countries needed the capacity to detect and share pathogens presenting a risk, and timely access to tests, treatments and vaccines. He called for a \u201cstrong agreement that will help to protect our children and grandchildren from future pandemics\u201d. Tedros said claims that the accord would cede sovereignty to the WHO or give it the power to impose lockdowns and vaccine mandates were \u201ccompletely false\u201d. \u201cWe cannot allow this historic agreement, this milestone in global health, to be sabotaged.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Surce: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/world\/2024\/jan\/22\/global-pandemic-agreement-at-risk-of-falling-apart-who-warns\">The Guardian<\/a> <\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/csr-news-en\/global-pandemic-agreement-at-risk-of-falling-apart-who-warns\/\">Global pandemic agreement at risk of falling apart, WHO warns<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[961,555,757,1354,432],"class_list":["post-124800","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-agreement","tag-csr-news-en","tag-global","tag-pandemic","tag-who"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/124800","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=124800"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/124800\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=124800"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=124800"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=124800"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
