Lessons have still not been learned, so why should we trust the WHO in a future pandemic?
The European Union, true to form, pushed for a legally binding pandemic “treaty”, but that won’t happen for two reasons: the American Senate would need a two-thirds majority to ratify it; and the Chinese government would not allow even its pet international agency to tell it what to do.
The accord would still have substantial force of international law behind it, to make governments impose domestic lockdowns etc.
