The Biden administration is poised to sign onto an international commitment to cede leadership of its pandemic response to the World Health Organization, according to new reports on Monday.
In an article published on Monday entitled “Why the U.S. Should Oppose the New Draft WHO Pandemic Treaty,” The Heritage Foundation discussed the “zero draft” of the deal.
The “zero draft” of that agreement, called WHO CA+, was released on February 1, 2023.

“Despite its failure during COVID-19 and complicity in China’s cover-up, the World Health Organization (WHO) has drafted a new global pandemic treaty,” the report noted. “The draft treaty focuses on expanding WHO power, trampling intellectual property rights, and ‘equitably’ redistributing knowledge, technology, and other resources.
“It has been misreported that the WHO CA+ draft would give the WHO authority over U.S. domestic pandemic policies,” the authors claim. As the draft states:
States have, in accordance with the Charter of the United Nations and the principles of international law, the sovereign right to determine and manage their approach to public health, notably pandemic prevention, preparedess, response and recovery of health systems, pursuant to their own policies and legislation, provided that activities within their jurisdiction or control do not cause damage to their peoples and other countries. (World Health Organization, “Zero Draft of the WHO CA+,” pp. 10 and 11.)
Nonetheless, the draft treaty is “deeply flawed” and, as currently drafted, should be rejected by the Biden Administration, the authors argued.
The WHO’s international draft treaty contains sections that directly clash with the U.S. Constitution. The treaty calls on the parties to “tackle false, misleading, misinformation or disinformation.” This is a flagrant violation of free speech.
