Coronavirus Lockdown and What You Are Not Being Told
Original article is a "long" article but worth that cup of coffee.
[Off-Guardian] In Part 1 we looked at the reasons why questioning the coronavirus lockdown, despite the ever present allegation, does not demonstrate a callous disregard for human life. We are going to expand on why it doesn’t in this article.

I am based in the UK so much of this discussion relates to the decisions of the British State, but this is a global policy agenda and similar policies are found across the developed world. Effectively a small group of policy decision makers have placed an estimated 3.5 billion people under house arrest. It is only possible for them to do so with our consent. Consent is carefully cultivated by controlling the information we are given....

I apologise for the article's length but I hope you will read it in its entirety. There's a lot of ground to cover, so please grab a coffee before we begin.

LOCKDOWN ADVISED BY WHO?
The World Health Organisation (WHO) is financed through a combination of assessed and voluntary contributions.

Assessed contributions are paid by nation states for WHO membership and figures are released quarterly.

Voluntary contributions are additional contributions from member states and "other partners."
For some reason these figures haven't been reported for more than three years.
About 80% of the WHO's finances come from voluntary contributions.

In its most recent 2017 voluntary contribution report the WHO accounted for the $2.1 billion it received from private foundations and global corporations.

This compared to just over $1 billion voluntarily provided by governments.

Contributors included GlaxoSmithKline, Bayer AG, Sanofi, Merck and Gilead Sciences whose drug remdesivir is currently being trialled, along side the off patent hydroxychloroquine, as a possible preventative treatment for COVID 19.

The remdesivir trial is part of the WHO's SOLIDARITY trials....

#1 Actually, I believe, I'm being told more than enough - especially by people who really have nothing to say on the subject.

#3 Not the Guardian:

OffGuardian was launched in February 2015 and takes its name from the fact its founders had all been censored on and/or banned from the Guardian’s ‘Comment is Free’ sections.

Our editors & admins are based around the globe in North America, Britain, and Southern and Eastern Europe.

#4 In polit-ticks, that would be called "conflict of interest".

#5 And if those companies didn't donate to WHO, they'd be assailed as heartless plutocrats.
