We must address the challenge of anti-vaxxers by being more aggressive in promoting the effectiveness of vaccines. They are using COVID to spread misinformation and cause harm. It's time to push back with evidence and facts.

Um das Vertrauen in die öffentliche Gesundheit wiederzugewinnen, müssen wir uns von den Interessen der Pharmaindustrie distanzieren. In den letzten vier Jahren haben wir gesehen, dass Desinformation vor allem von der EU-Kommission und nationalen Regierungen kam, nicht aus dem Internet. Es ging nicht darum, die Pandemie zu bekämpfen, sondern die Menschen politisch zu kontrollieren. Während wir Schwierigkeiten hatten, grundlegende Medikamente zu beschaffen, wurden 4,6 Milliarden Impfdosen bestellt, die weder sicher noch effektiv waren. Die Bürger wurden unter Druck gesetzt, sich impfen zu lassen, obwohl die Impfungen keine Übertragung verhinderten. Studien zeigen einen Zusammenhang zwischen Impfstatus und Geburtenrückgang in den Mitgliedstaaten. Es ist unsere Aufgabe, diese Zusammenhänge zu untersuchen, um glaubwürdig für die öffentliche Gesundheit einzutreten. --- To regain trust in public health, we must distance ourselves from pharmaceutical interests. Over the past four years, misinformation primarily came from the EU Commission and national governments, not the internet. The focus was not on combating the pandemic but on controlling people politically. While we struggled to procure basic medications, 4.6 billion vaccine doses were ordered that were neither safe nor effective. Citizens were pressured to get vaccinated, even though the vaccines did not prevent transmission. Studies show a correlation between vaccination status and declining birth rates in member states. It is our duty to investigate these connections to advocate credibly for public health.

Major strategic problems in global communication have led to the spread of disinformation about the pandemic on social media. State-sponsored groups are creating accounts to sow political discord and gain financial advantages. Violence against healthcare workers and minority populations is increasing. Different countries are implementing limited internet shutdowns to manage the overwhelming amount of misinformation. Experts agree that identifying every bad actor is a huge challenge, and new disinformation campaigns are generated daily. Some believe that controlling access to information is necessary to combat the problem. However, it's not just trolls spreading fake news, but also political leaders. It's crucial to ensure that accurate public health information reaches the public through various outlets. Misinformation is causing unrest, eroding trust, and hindering response efforts. Governments are implementing interventions, including internet shutdowns and penalties for spreading harmful falsehoods. Social media companies are trying to limit misuse of their platforms, but it's a complex issue. The public is losing trust in both misinformation and the measures to control it.

Digital platforms are being misused to subvert science and spread disinformation and hate to billions of people. This global threat demands clear and coordinated global action. A policy brief on information integrity on digital platforms puts forward a framework for a concerned international response.

Twitter firings have left us without a way to flag abusive or violent content. Disinformation can now be promoted by anyone with a blue tick. However, we are working with platforms to promote reliable information on COVID and climate change. We have a strong group of messengers who share UN content with their followers and educate users on combating disinformation. Our new slogan is "pause, take care before you share." We are establishing a central capacity at the UN to monitor and react to mis and disinformation and hate speech. We will also develop a UN code of conduct for digital platforms to set global standards for information integrity and create a more humane Internet.

The top concerns for the global business community in the next 2 years are disinformation, misinformation, and polarization. These risks limit our ability to address major global challenges such as climate change, geopolitical shifts, demographic changes, and technological advancements. We are currently experiencing intense competition among countries, making the theme of this year's Davos meeting, rebuilding trust, even more relevant. It is crucial to prioritize trust-building and global collaboration to effectively tackle these challenges. Immediate and structural responses are needed to match the scale of these global issues. The speaker believes that it is possible to achieve this.

Dear leftists and so-called rule of law lovers, it has been a year since Watergate, yet you have done nothing about the vaccination scandal in the European Commission. Instead, you have spent eight years attacking the Polish government. You try to lecture us on the rule of law, but your own people are being arrested for corruption. You have no right to lecture us or define democracy and the rule of law. We will fight against you.

We are facing immense crises in the European Union. War has returned to our territory, and we need the EU more than ever. However, the far-right is gaining success in elections, with figures like Mr. Wilders campaigning against Muslims, immigration, and even the European Green Deal. If we don't wake up and realize the gravity of the situation, if we don't find the strength to convince others that we need to save the EU, it is in danger of extinction. There is a combination of external and internal threats that we have never seen before in European history. The upcoming election is crucial and decisive. Putin's plan to pressure and weaken Europe is succeeding.

Question everything your government does or says, and especially distrust the EU Commission, which is a headquarters for spreading fake news and disinformation. Those who pushed the narrative about the virus are now pushing climate change, which is just another scheme to take taxpayer money and give it to global corporations. They want to get rid of individual mobility by targeting cars. The proposed measures to save the planet won't work but will abolish freedom, democracy, and free will. Stop voting for the same people who created this mess because they are liars.

If we don't realize the gravity of the situation and find the strength to convince others of the need to save the EU, it is in danger of extinction. We are facing both external and internal threats, unlike anything we have seen before. The upcoming election is crucial and decisive for our history. Putin's plan to pressure and weaken Europe is succeeding.

The speaker expresses concern over three recent developments: the Global Compact for Migration, the international pandemic treaty by the WHO, and the EU Digital Services Act. They argue that these initiatives aim to disempower national parliaments, suspend fundamental rights, and concentrate power in the hands of the UN, WHO, and EU. The speaker specifically highlights the Digital Services Act, which introduces a digital state of emergency allowing platforms like Facebook to be completely shut down at the EU's discretion. They criticize the law for obligating platforms to prioritize government propaganda and censor content deemed harmful or critical of the EU. The speaker accuses the EU of attacking freedom of speech and democracy.

Poles, Hungarians, and other Europeans understand the struggle of living without the rule of law. It is crucial for us to unite and fight against this growing problem in other countries. Let's join forces and stand together.

The threat of disinformation and foreign interference is growing. To combat this, we are introducing the European Democracy Shield. This initiative will identify and counter information manipulation, work with national agencies, detect foreign interference, enhance AI deepfake detection, and promote resilience.

The EU government determines what disinformation is and requires social media platforms to ban those who post views that deviate from EU policy. This approach is seen as dangerous, as it suppresses dissent on the internet in an authoritarian and totalitarian manner. Despite the perception of the EU as democratic, their actions in prosecuting the war on COVID and in general show an aggressive stance in preventing dissent online, which goes against the values we associate with our enemies.

The transcript discusses a 2010 Rockefeller Foundation document titled Scenarios for the Future of Technology and International Development, focusing on a scenario called Lockstep. In this scenario, a pandemic strikes in 2012, overwhelming even the best-prepared nations. Approximately 20% of the global population becomes infected and about 8 million people die within seven months. The pandemic devastates economies as international travel and global supply chains collapse, and even developed countries struggle with containment. China is highlighted as having greater success due to rapid, mandatory quarantines and near-closed borders, which saves millions of lives and enables a faster post-pandemic recovery. The account notes that highly intrusive real-time tracking of a largely compliant population was key to lifting lockdowns in Wuhan. The document also asserts that during the pandemic, leaders worldwide imposed airtight rules and restrictions, from mandatory mask-wearing to temperature checks at entry points to communal spaces. Even after the pandemic fades, there is a lasting shift toward more authoritarian control and oversight, with citizens accepting reduced sovereignty and privacy in exchange for safety and stability. In developed countries, biometric IDs and a suite of new regulations are introduced to restore order and economic growth, with the overall message that increased oversight helps achieve stability. The transcript then shifts to Event 201, a high-level pandemic exercise held on October 18, 2019, organized by the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security in partnership with the World Economic Forum and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The exercise simulated the consequences of a pandemic and the societal and economic challenges it would pose, using a coronavirus-like pathogen codenamed Caps. Participants describe how a significant portion of identified cases require hospitalization, causing strain on health systems. They note that some individuals with mild symptoms can still spread the virus unknowingly, and emphasize that disinformation and misinformation undermine the response. There is discussion about how governments, international organizations, and businesses should counter misinformation and ensure reliable information reaches the public. It’s noted that social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook have identified and removed a large number of accounts spreading disinformation about the outbreak. Some participants argue that strong measures to manage information are necessary, even if it means restricting access to information, to prevent misinformation from jeopardizing the pandemic response or causing political instability. The video then intersperses commentary questioning the coincidence that the 2019 exercise apparently anticipated the 2020 outbreak, with a skeptical tone about whether the scenario was preplanned or predictive. Additional voices from public health organizations warn that an epidemic—whether naturally caused or intentionally—could cause massive harm, with the possibility of ten million excess deaths. A final note reflects on the sense that the world was already prepared in many ways before 2020, suggesting that the pandemic response was part of a long-standing preparation.

In response to the global risk report, I want to address the concern of disinformation and misinformation. We have been focusing on this issue since the beginning of my term. Through the Digital Services Act, we have defined the responsibilities of large internet platforms in promoting and spreading content. This includes protecting children and vulnerable groups from hate speech. It is crucial to protect our offline values online, especially in the era of generative AI. The World Economic Forum Global Risk Report also highlights artificial intelligence as a top potential risk for the next decade.

Question everything your government does or doesn't do, and especially distrust the EU Commission, which is described as spreading fake news. Those who promoted the response to a novel virus are now claiming we're all going to die of climate change, but this is just a scheme to take taxpayer money and give it to global corporations. They also want to get rid of individual mobility by targeting cars. Measures to save the planet won't work, but will abolish freedom, democracy, and love. Stop voting for the same people who created this mess, because they are liars.

The Biden administration plans to bring together democracies in a transatlantic summit to address threats to democracy. The European Union also wants to establish a transatlantic digital marketplace and work together against disinformation. Mainstream platforms like Twitter and Facebook have started labeling misinformation, and there is hope that nefarious movements will decline. The EU's Democracy Action Plan, which includes introducing costs for spreading disinformation, is seen as a game changer. The Digital Services Act and Digital Markets Act proposed by the European Commission are steps in the right direction. Collaboration between governments, civil society, and industry is crucial, as disinformation is a growing threat that requires a collective response.
