Obama ordered FBI, CDC to implement globalist ‘health security agenda’ shortly before leaving office (www.lifesitenews.com)

Shortly before leaving office, President Obama and his administration took some actions regarding pandemics and “global health security” which some may find interesting.

First, President Obama’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST), led by John Holdren, wrote and published a letter to the President with multiple recommendations for defending America against biological attacks and naturally occurring outbreaks of infectious diseases, including epidemics/pandemics.

The letter was released on November 15, 2016, which was a week after the Democrats lost the Office of the President to Donald Trump; this is important and should be kept in mind throughout this article.

The letter discusses the previous U.S. federal government attempts at addressing the United States’ biodefense strategy, and then concludes that “it is necessary to rethink the overall organizational structure for anticipating, preparing for, and responding to biological threats” and naturally occurring epidemics. It is implied that new “mechanisms to evaluate progress” are needed. (Page 6)

This seems to be significant: after losing to Donald Trump, President Obama’s science and technology advisors were suggesting President Obama set up a new approach to plan and prepare to defend against biological threats, which include naturally occurring viruses and epidemics.

The letter concludes with some noteworthy recommendations. The first recommendation is that President Obama

should create a new interagency entity charged with planning, coordination, and oversight of national biodefense activities across the Intelligence Community and the Departments of Defense (DoD), Homeland Security (DHS), Health and Human Services (HHS), and Agriculture. (Page 14)

Again, “national biodefense activities” in this recommendation refers to both intentional attacks and naturally occurring pandemics. Included in this recommendation is the suggestion that the “new interagency entity” should be charged with

developing, within six months, a national biodefense strategy—including short-, medium-, and long-term components—to anticipate, prepare for, and respond to all issues that arise as biotechnology continues to advance… (Page 14)

The new entity should provide

requirements and taskings of the Intelligence Community (IC) and holding the IC accountable for adequate collection and analysis of current and future biological threats to the United States and for other activities of the IC that might mitigate these threats… (Page 14)

The recommendation does not explain what “other activities” the Intelligence Community might use to mitigate threats.

President Obama’s science advisors next recommend that the new National Biodefense Strategy

should act to substantially strengthen Federal, state and local public health infrastructure for disease surveillance, as well as promote a stronger international system of disease surveillance. (Page 15)

This new surveillance capacity should include the ability to

routinely and rapidly employ advanced biological tools—including rapid diagnostic tests, large-scale genome sequencing and analysis, and new approaches to monitor the host immune system—for systematic evaluation of possible cases, including those presenting simply as “fevers of unknown origin” or “severe acute respiratory infections.” (Page 15)

This is also significant; John Holdren and others suggested new “approaches to monitor the host immune system” for “fevers of unknown origin.” There are only a few new ways to monitor human beings’ immune systems and systematically evaluate fevers of unknown origin.

A letter published by the Obama administration in 2016 called for ‘pre-tested vaccine candidates’ and for the involvement of the Intelligence Community in ‘biological threats.’ Just days before, Obama had tasked the FBI with implementing a ‘global health security agenda.’ Shortly before leaving office, President Obama and his administration took some actions regarding pandemics and “global health security” which some may find interesting.
