Experts say the proposed plan would be an unprecedented violation of the Constitution, which grants the Senate the authority to approve international treaties.
In order for the proposed treaty to be enacted, it would need to be ratified by all 194 WHO member countries. A meeting is scheduled for February 27 in order to work out the final terms of the treaty.
According to The Epoch Times, after a global health emergency is declared, the agreement would grant the WHO the authority to determine "treatments, government regulations such as lockdowns and vaccine mandates, global supply chains, and monitoring and surveillance of populations" of all 194 member countries. The WHO is based in Geneva, Switzerland and is a subsidiary of the United Nations.

Even your local doctor that you go to would lose authority because the executive director of the World Health Organization would be empowered to make decisions over vaccines, masks, lockdowns, and supply chains."
