The Independent WHO examines the World Health Organisation and finds
it dishonest on ionising radiation

by Christina MacPherson
In reality, IAEA is a commercial lobbying org promoting use of the
atom, yet at the same time, it dictates WHO procedures, standards, and
published articles on the matter of nuclear radiation, prompting a
very pregnant question: Is this a conflict of interest for WHO?
Answer: Yes, it is!

Not only is there a serious conflict of interest, Katz claims WHO
fails, time and again, to meet its mandate to the public, as for
example:

1) WHO remained absent from Chernobyl for five years even though the
WHO mandate requires it to be present the “day after a catastrophe” to
evaluate and provide assistance. But, WHO was MIA for 5 years.

2) WHO does not issue independent reports on radiation issues. All
nuclear-related reports are written by IAEA but published “in the name
of the WHO.”

3) Following Chernobyl, there were two international conferences held
to analyze the implications of the catastrophe; one held in Geneva in
1995 and the second in Kiev in 2001. The “Proceedings of the
Conferences” were never published by WHO.

Hidden Radiation Secrets of the World Health Organization,
CounterPunch by ROBERT HUNZIKER, MAY 2, 2017 Imagine the following
hypothetical: The World Health Organization (“WHO”) is deeply involved
in a high level cover up of the human impact and dangers of ionizing
radiation, intentionally hiding the facts from the public, a chilling
storyline!

After all, the world community depends upon WHO as an independent org
t0 forewarn the general public of health dangers and to help in times
of crises, not hide pivotal health facts from public eye.

As it happens, that nightmarish hypothetical comes to life in an
interview with Alison Katz, who claims: “We are absolutely convinced
that if the consequences of nuclear radiation were known to the
public, the debate about nuclear power would end tomorrow. In fact, if
the public knew, it would probably be excluded immediately as an
energy option.”

Alison Katz heads a NGO known as Independent WHO, and she spends a lot
of time arranging sandwich boards with messages like: “Complicity in
Scientific Crime” or “Crime of Chernobyl – WHO Accomplice” in front of
WHO headquarters/Geneva. For 10 years now on a daily vigil from
8:00-to-6:00 she and/or other protestors expose alleged misbehavior
committed by WHO, right outside of the headquarters building. Imagine
this: Ten years on the same street corner every working day. It’s
commitment and determination sans pareil.

“The aim of the silent vigil is to remind the World Health
Organisation of its duties. It was Hippocrates who formulated the
ethical rules for health practitioners. The World Health Organisation
ignores these rules, when it comes to protecting the health of the
victims of the consequences of the nuclear industry”.

Which brings forth: Ten years of hard work combating a difficult and
challenging issue warrants public adulation beyond carrying posters
back and forth, come rain or shine, trudging away in the heat of the
sun or the freezing cold and snow in front of WHO Hdqs. Hopefully,
this article serves that purpose for Alison Katz.

The mission of Independent WHO is to expose WHO’s failings whilst
calling for WHO independence away from influence by the worldwide
nuclear syndicate: According to WHO Independence’s Web Site: “The
World Health Organization (WHO) is failing in its duty to protect
those populations who are victims of radioactive contamination.”

Ms Katz worked inside the WHO for 18 years. She insists that WHO, in
cahoots with IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency), dangerously
misrepresents the inherent dangers of ionizing radiation, an
insinuation that smacks in the face with egregiousness galore.

Ms Katz’s April 2017 interview, which this article is based upon, can
be heard in its entirety.

This article condenses and summarizes her one-hour interview. As such,
according to Ms Katz: “The health consequences of nuclear activity,
whether they are civil or military, are not known to the public… There
has been a very high level cover up… including the WHO.”

For over 50 years WHO provided “a clean bill of health for nuclear
power.” However, according to Ms Katz, that clean bill of health is
not based upon independent science. It’s based upon “pseudo science”
manipulated and largely controlled by the nuclear lobby and
International Atomic Energy Agency, the Queen Bee of the pro-nuke
Hive.

Furthermore, within the “United Nations family hierarchy,” WHO is
entirely subservient to IAEA. In turn, IAEA reports to the Security
Council of the UN or the very top echelon of the power hierarchy of
the world, including France, China, UK, U.S., and the Russian
Federation. Far and away, these are the world’s biggest nuke heads.

Connecting the dots leaves one breathless within a telling trail of
pro-nuke advocacy of the highest order… hm-m-m, thus raising the
question: How is it humanly possible for WHO to objectively,
impartially, squarely and soberly analyze and recommend ionizing
radiation issues on behalf of the general public?

Is it at all possible, even a little bit?

As it goes, the IAEA has two mandates, which sound innocent enough:
(1) to prevent proliferation of nuclear power and (2) promotion of the
use of the atom on a peaceful basis, ah-ah-ah… oh well, never mind. In
reality, IAEA is a commercial lobbying org promoting use of the atom,
yet at the same time, it dictates WHO procedures, standards, and
published articles on the matter of nuclear radiation, prompting a
very pregnant question: Is this a conflict of interest for WHO?
Answer: Yes, it is! WHO is a creature of the dictates of IAEA, which
is the world’s largest promoter of the atom. Whereas, WHO is supposed
to “independently serve the public interest,” not kowtow to a nuclear
advocacy powerhouse that reports to nuclear powerhouse countries that
have a deepening love affair with nuclear power, warts and all.

For example, sixty (60) reactors are currently under construction in
fifteen countries. In all, one hundred sixty (160) power reactors are
in the planning stage and three hundred (300) more have been proposed.
That’s a love affaire.

Meanwhile, as for WHO’s mandate: It serves as the leading authority of
standards for public health, coordinating research, advising member
states, and formulating ionizing radioactivity health policies.
However, IAEA has been usurping WHO’s mandate for the past 50 years.
In fact, a 1959 Agreement (WHA 12-40) between the two says WHO needs
prior approval of IAEA before taking any action or publishing material
dealing with nuclear, period!

As a result of this 50-year conflict of interest, which is deeply
embedded by now, Ms Katz claims WHO must, absolutely must, become
independent, thus breaking the stranglehold of numero uno promoter of
nuclear power over WHO, which is mandated to serve the public, not
IAEA.

Not only is there a serious conflict of interest, Katz claims WHO
fails, time and again, to meet its mandate to the public, as for
example:

1) WHO remained absent from Chernobyl for five years even though the
WHO mandate requires it to be present the “day after a catastrophe” to
evaluate and provide assistance. But, WHO was MIA for 5 years.

2) WHO does not issue independent reports on radiation issues. All
nuclear-related reports are written by IAEA but published “in the name
of the WHO.”

3) Following Chernobyl, there were two international conferences held
to analyze the implications of the catastrophe; one held in Geneva in
1995 and the second in Kiev in 2001. The “Proceedings of the
Conferences” were never published by WHO; thus, never made public even
though WHO claims the proceedings are publicly available. Confusing?
Yes! To this day, the relevant question remains: What did “the
analyses” show?

As a result of WHO’s egregious conflicts, the world community has no
independent arms-length source on nuclear radiation. That is a
situation fraught with conflict and extremely difficult to accept,
sans grimacing with a lot of teeth grinding.

Once again, with emphasis: There is no independent international
authority reporting to the public on nuclear radiation…. none
whatsoever. All information about nuclear radiation ultimately comes
from the primary users/promoters of nuclear power even though they
have a very big heavy axe to grind.

Of course, there are independent scientists, but they face enormous
obstacles in coming forward with the truth, thereby risking monetary
grants and risking personal positions, as well as family livelihood.

Not only that, but over the years all departments within WHO that
dealt with nuclear radiation have been highly compromised. Even worse,
according to Ms Katz, no senior radiation scientists work for WHO,
none… nada.

What constitutes the “nuclear establishment” is a fair question; it
consists of the major governments of the world like France and the U.S
but led by the International Commission on Radiological Protection
(ICRP), the top dog, establishing standards for the world. Strangely
enough, there are no health experts at ICRP, prompting a logical
question: Why not?

There is more to be concerned about, e.g., another shocking fact
regarding ICRP, as if there are not already enough shockers with the
thread that runs throughout nuclear power’s closely-knit network: Even
though “ionizing radiation is mutagenic and always causes mutations,
causing damage at the cellular level, there are no molecular
biologists working in the ICRP” (Katz). Thus, the world’s largest
institution for determination of radiation standards for the public
has no molecular biologists on staff. That fact is beyond belief, an
eye-opener beyond all other eye-openers.

It’s almost as if the regulators don’t give a damn about the effects
of radiation on the general public. Do they?………….

Fukushima…….

Consequences of Chernobyl……..

Effects of Radiation

The genetic effects of radiation likely exceed anything understood by
the general public, as WHO and other health orgs do not properly
educate the public about radiation’s risks: “The genetic effects, far
from diminishing with time, increase” (Katz), which is extra bad.

Years of research around Chernobyl show that the genetic impact of
radiation to the human body becomes much, much worse as time passes.
Thus, “radiation is both a continuing and a worsening catastrophe as
time passes” (Katz). Radiation’s impact gets worse over time; it does
not heal, does not dissipate, does not go away; it grows progressively
worse, like the film sequels to Godzilla, which was conceived as a
metaphor for nuclear weapons in the early 1950s.

Indisputably, all organ systems of the human body are affected by
radioactive contamination. Cancer is not the only nasty result of
radiation exposure. Radioactive contamination affects the entire human
immune system from head to toe, thus impacting every organ system in
the body, e.g. musculoskeletal, etc. This damage to organs is in
addition to the various cancer risks.

After all, consider this, 30 years after the fact, horribly deformed
Chernobyl Children are found in over 300 asylums in the Belarus
backwoods deep in the countryside.

Equally as bad but maybe more odious, as of today, Chernobyl
radiation, since 1986, is already affecting 2nd generation kids.

According to a USA Today article, Chernobyl’s Legacy: Kids With Bodies
Ravaged by Disaster, April 17, 2016: “There are 2,397,863 people
registered with Ukraine’s health ministry to receive ongoing
Chernobyl-related health care. Of these, 453,391 are children — none
born at the time of the accident. Their parents were children in 1986.
These children have a range of illnesses: respiratory, digestive,
musculoskeletal, eye diseases, blood diseases, cancer, congenital
malformations, genetic abnormalities, trauma.”

It’s taken 30 years for the world, via an article in USA Today, to
begin to understand how devastating, over decades, not over a few
years, radiation exposure is to the human body. It is a silent killer
that cumulates in the body over time and passes from generation to
generation to generation, endless destruction that cannot be stopped.

Where is WHO is kinda like Where is Waldo, but sadly the effects of
ionizing radiation are not part of a game. It is deadly serious,
forevermore. In the meanwhile, Fukushima irradiates and irradiates,
limitlessly and so far, unstoppable. Where does its radiation go?
