GIDeoN - W. Ian Lipkin
A thread amongst our Celebrity Scientists, apart from being pro-CCP, is the One Planet-One Health bio-data-base evangelism.
For example, every chance Lipkin got in the crucial, embryonic Covid period - and he got a lot - he preached GIDEoN, a One Health initiative.
Lipkin: Every chance I get, I preach this - what we need is an international surveillance system, this is the future for us - (31:40) this is what will keep us secure on the planet - this is what we need.
An international surveillance security system? Sounds a bit creepy, Ian.
Lipkin: This program is called GIDEoN - ...(31:55) - .. it’s an international integrated network where people share data and care for one another - to try to protect the world.
Ohr, so sweet.
Lipkin: It ensures that everybody employs a common database 1:06:05 and uploads their data so everybody can see it.
Uhmm … so a global health data-base where everybody can see it? Or you mean everybody who's anybody? Like your good self?
Private medical data is sensitive stuff to be sharing, Ian. You want to upload a whole globe’s worth onto one database? What about all the cyber-hacking of medical data?
Out of curiosity, who are these more everybody than normal bodies in charge of surveilling/securing the planet again?
Lipkin (16:44): Lu Jia-hai, who's a professor at Sun Yat-sen University .. runs a large One Health program - it’s been funded for about 6 months by the Chinese Government, but doesn’t really have any support in the US. It’s called GIDeoN - Global Infectious Disease Epidemiology Network. .. This is the future(31:40) - this is what we need.
GIDeoN (a play on the heroic Israelite, Gideon, from the bible), is a One Health international surveillance system - to keep us secure on the planet - funded by the Chinese Government.
Is that the same Chinese Government already using western bio-surveillance tech to oppress the Uyghurs, Tibetans and Hong Kongers and threaten Taiwan? Or the one that you claim was transparent in sharing that this was a serious threat globally? (19:05)
So as a cure for a disease potentially caused by scientists - you're suggesting a temporary abrogation of privacy rights/freedoms of the globe? to get us out of this mess? Or is it more of a Dan Andrews-style permanent Covid-normal?
Lipkin, GIDEoN Conf, 101:03: There will be more of these - there’s no question - .. what we need to do - to survive as a species - is - as humans - is to create an integrated network that allows us to detect these (Covid-style events) early and to respond to them as a world.
To survive as a species! So we need an international surveillance system - Ruled by scientists with CCP-leanings. Or we're all gonna DIE!
Luckily, the above surveillance system is what we’ve now got. Due to Covid.
As a case study - scientists detected Covid early - can’t get earlier than causing it - didn’t help a lick for preventing it - feels like it was more about responding as a world?
As a dumb respondee, wouldn’t it be more efficacious/cheaper - with less privacy-invasion - to simply stop scientists playing GoF with our future?

(Found this Dec 1, 2021 on Twitter. The writer said the photo was from the 90’s. Skeptical, I did some research - sent it to a housemate from Kensington (Melb) back in the day. We didn’t need carbon-date analysis to tell us that’s the 80’s. She thinks early-80’s. Few other things wrong in the thread (Karesh is not in the photo - nor did he found One Health - Kaplan/Kahn did) but great photo - well delved.)
