Australia Didn't Reject WHO’s Pandemic Regulations

So WHO’s 2024 International Health Regulations were not expressly rejected by Australia on 19 July 2025, therefore Australia is required to implement them into our domestic legislation by 19 September 2025 – what does that mean?

The Pandemic Regulations require:

Censorship

Censorship is the tool used when the lie loses its power.
The WHO’s Pandemic Regulations require Australia to respond to the ‘infodemic’ which is caused by ‘mis and dis-information’. It will do this by increased censorship.
But who gets to decide what is mis-information: the government?
Mis and Dis-information Bill ring a bell?

Surveillance

of People, Animals and Environment Testing, tracking and tracing.

Everything will be tested from sewage, to people, birds, animals, farmland.
The WHO is on the lookout for the next pathogen of pandemic potential so it can declare the next pandemic.
Cue digital IDs with vaccine passports and health passes.

Compliance

Australia is required to establish a National Implementation Compliance Authority to make sure we are fulfilling the obligations to the WHO.
Australia must implement these Regulations into our domestic legislation by 19 September 2025.

These Regulations will impact the way Australia is to respond to health emergencies.

The World Health Organization (WHO) is the international organisation responsible for global health. The WHO is made up of 194 member countries, Australia is a member.

The WHO was responsible for declaring the Covid-19 pandemic.  The WHO also made numerous new ‘public health’ recommendations during Covid-19, which Australia’s politicians and health departments followed without question.  Despite the fact many of the WHO’s recommendations were new or at odds with evidence based recommendations made for previous pandemics.

Since the Covid-19 pandemic the WHO has justified the need to expand on the Pandemic Regulations (and drafting a new Pandemic Agreement) which will allow it to declare more and more pandemics.

The Australian government has signed up for new Pandemic Regulations and failed to expressly reject them by 19 July 2025, giving even more power to the unelected WHO.

The WHO’s 2024 Pandemic Regulations grant the WHO: 

  • the power declare more pandemics and ‘health emergencies’;
  • push for increased surveillance and censorship of Australians; and
  • promote pandemic related product and pharmaceutical interests.

The WHO is no longer solely funded by its 194 member countries – instead the WHO now receives significant funding (circa 25%) from private interests including philanthropic groups that benefit in the promotion of pharmaceuticals and vaccines (eg GAVI, Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

Australia did not REJECT these Pandemic Regulations by 17 July 2025 so they have to be implemented into Australia’s domestic legislation by 19 September 2025, for example, watch out for:

  • updates to the Bio Security Act 2015 which already state as an object: “to give effect to Australia’s international rights and obligations, including under the International Health Regulations” 
  • a new type of Mis and Dis Information Bill (no doubt similar to the binned last year in November following huge public outcry) to quash any public debate around public health responses
  • Digital ID eg through Under 16 Social Media Ban Bill 

 

Following are just a number of the key concerns we have about the WHO’s Pandemic Regulations and what our government is walking us into.

Questions to ask when discussing the WHO with people

01

What is the WHO? And who are they made up of?

02
What is the WHO up to?
03
Who pays for the WHO?

Some key points to help when discussing the WHO pandemic treaties

What’s this for and does this all need to be done?

Two peer-reviewed studies, recently published by the University of Leeds, confirms that:

  • New Pandemic Emergency Power
    New definition of ‘pandemic emergency’ gives WHO sweeping powers over communicable diseases deemed high-risk. States, like Australia, have limited say.
    (IHR: Articles 1, 2, 5, 12, 49)

  • New National IHR Authority
    Australia must create a new authority to implement WHO regulations, report compliance, and justify any failure to fully implement them.
    (IHR: Articles 1, 4, 15, 16, 42, 54, 59.3)

  • WHO Powers Over Nations
    WHO can dictate ‘recommendations’ for:

    • Lockdowns

    • Travel bans

    • Forced medical exams

    • Mandatory vaccines

    • Isolation & quarantine

          which our government and politicians follow without question. 

         (IHR: Articles 1, 15-18, 23-24, 31, 42, 49)

  • Global Vaccine Passports / Digital ID
    Mandatory global “health documents” covering vaccination, tests, and recovery – tied to Digital ID systems, with personal details attached.
    (IHR: Articles 18, 23-24, 27, 31-32, 35-36, 44; Annexes 6, 8)

  • Data & Samples to WHO
    Personal medical data and pathogen samples must be shared with WHO, who can disclose them to others.
    (IHR: Articles 1, 5, 45; Annex 1)

  • Human Rights Subordinated
    Rights diluted under “equity and solidarity” principles.
    (IHR: Article 3)

  • New Censorship Powers
    WHO empowered to control public messaging, suppress dissent, regulate science, and censor free speech.
    (IHR Annex 1)

  • Funding Obligations
    Australia must finance its own compliance, fund developing nations, and combat “misinformation.”

    • Already paid: $122M (2022–23)

    • Estimated future cost: $5.29B/year (5% of health budget)
      (IHR: Articles 44, 44A, 54 bis)

  • New concept of ‘One Health’ Control
    Introduced in the Pandemic Agreement but enforcement is regulated under the Pandemic Regulations. Combined with the expanded definition of a ‘health emergency,’ this shift means the WHO no longer merely issues declarations and recommendations regarding human health,  it gains authority over humans, animals, and ecosystems. States are required to actively search for and supply pathogens across all these domains.”.
    (IHR: Articles 5, 46)
