(End of the American Dream)—Should all of this talk about “Disease X” alarm us? According to the WHO, “Disease X” is an “unknown” hypothetical disease that could potentially kill millions upon millions of people. It is supposed to be a purely theoretical disease, but by giving it a name they are basically inviting people to come up with all sorts of theories about it. And that is especially true now that experts have speculated that it could cause 20 times more deaths than COVID did…
Health leaders are meeting at the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos on Wednesday to discuss ways to prepare for ‘Disease X’ – a term coined by the World Health Organisation (WHO) in 2018 to describe the unknown, hypothetical pathogen that could cause the next pandemic.
According to some experts, Disease X could result in 20 times more fatalities than the coronavirus pandemic.
It’s on the WHO’s shortlist of priority diseases, alongside viruses like SARS, Ebola and Zika.
The WEF is certainly contributing to the hype around this hypothetical disease.
On Wednesday, there will be an entire session at the WEF’s yearly gathering that has been entitled “Preparing for Disease X”, and the description for that session ominously declares that “‘Disease X’ could result in 20 times more fatalities than the coronavirus pandemic”…
The 2024 program is one for the ages. Attendees will watch Pfizer’s Albert Bourla and Open AI’s Sam Altman talk about Artificial Intelligence (AI). They’ll see depopulation advocate Bill “Bugman” Gates advancing the climate hoax. John Kerry will appear on four different stages to discuss the “energy transition.” We will also see Klaus Schwab sit down for a 1 on 1 with the second highest ranking Chinese government official.
But one panel in particular sticks out: Preparing for Disease X. The topic is both incredibly vague and incredibly disturbing.
The description for the discussion reads: “With fresh warnings from the World Health Organization that an unknown ‘Disease X’ could result in 20 times more fatalities than the coronavirus pandemic, what novel efforts are needed to prepare healthcare systems for the multiple challenges ahead?”
Why give such a specific number?
I don’t think that is helpful at all.
Are they trying to cause panic?
Coffee the Christian way: Promised Grounds
The list of speakers that are scheduled for this session includes the Director-General of the WHO…
- Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General, WHO
- Shyam Bishen, Head, Centre for Health and Healthcare; WEF Geneva
- Roy Jakobs, President and Chief Executive Officer, Royal Philips
- Preetha Reddy, Executive Vice-Chairperson, Apollo Hospitals Enterprise Ltd
- Nisia Trindade Lima, Minister of Health, Ministry of Health of Brazil
- Michel Demaré, Chair of the Board, AstraZeneca Plc
Without a doubt, more global pandemics are coming.
This is something that I have been relentlessly warning my readers about.
But to give an “unknown” disease a specific name and to throw out numbers for potential death rates is only going to fuel unhealthy speculation.
Of course it isn’t just the WHO and the WEF that are doing this.
In June of last year, a bill known as the Disease X Act of 2023 was introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives.
And it is being reported that a facility that has just been built in the UK will actually be performing “vaccine research” for Disease X…
A new facility has been constructed in the UK that will conduct vaccine research for an unknown pathogen dubbed by the World Economic Forum (WHO) as “Disease X.”
The new facility is located at the secretive Porten Down science and technology campus in Wiltshire, England, which is best known for chemical and biological warfare research.
Experts at this facility are “preparing” for the emergence of a new “Disease X” virus, the BBC reported in August.
I have no idea how they can conduct “research” on an entirely “unknown” disease, but apparently that is what they intend to do.
Don’t wait for a stock market crash, dedollarization, or CBDCs before securing your retirement with physical precious metals. Genesis Gold Group can help.
Instead of chasing ghosts, perhaps our leaders could focus on fixing what is already broken.
According to one recent study, almost one out of every five hospital deaths in the United States is caused by doctor error…
Nearly one in five US hospital deaths are caused by misdiagnoses, research shows.
A study published last month in the journal JAMA examined 2019 medical records from nearly 2,500 patients in 29 different American hospitals.
All of the patients were transported to the intensive care unit (ICU), died while hospitalized, or both.
Let me give you another example. The makers of Ozempic are being sued by dozens of people including one woman “who will suffer diarrhea for the rest of her life”…
A woman who will suffer diarrhea for the rest of her life after using Ozempic is among dozens of patients who are suing the maker of the blockbuster weight loss drug over claims it left them with crippling stomach paralysis, a DailyMail.com investigation reveals.
Novo Nordisk, the maker of Ozempic and Wegovy, is facing lawsuits from patients across America who say they experienced extreme side effects which they were allegedly not warned about.
Another woman literally vomited until her teeth fell out.
We have very real problems that health officials could be focusing on. And we have very real diseases which have been spreading all over the country in recent months.
But instead of addressing our pressing needs, many health officials would like us to look forward to a “Disease X” which may or may not materialize. Why?
Once again, I certainly believe that we are living during a time when great pestilences will be very common. But I think that it would be wise to wait until they actually appear to give them names, and the sort of speculation that the WHO and the WEF are engaging in is not helpful at all.

Five Things New “Preppers” Forget When Getting Ready for Bad Times Ahead
The preparedness community is growing faster than it has in decades. Even during peak times such as Y2K, the economic downturn of 2008, and Covid, the vast majority of Americans made sure they had plenty of toilet paper but didn’t really stockpile anything else.
Things have changed. There’s a growing anxiety in this presidential election year that has prompted more Americans to get prepared for crazy events in the future. Some of it is being driven by fearmongers, but there are valid concerns with the economy, food supply, pharmaceuticals, the energy grid, and mass rioting that have pushed average Americans into “prepper” mode.
There are degrees of preparedness. One does not have to be a full-blown “doomsday prepper” living off-grid in a secure Montana bunker in order to be ahead of the curve. In many ways, preparedness isn’t about being able to perfectly handle every conceivable situation. It’s about being less dependent on government for as long as possible. Those who have proper “preps” will not be waiting for FEMA to distribute emergency supplies to the desperate masses.
Below are five things people new to preparedness (and sometimes even those with experience) often forget as they get ready. All five are common sense notions that do not rely on doomsday in order to be useful. It may be nice to own a tank during the apocalypse but there’s not much you can do with it until things get really crazy. The recommendations below can have places in the lives of average Americans whether doomsday comes or not.

Secured Wealth
Whether in the bank or held in a retirement account, most Americans feel that their life’s savings is relatively secure. At least they did until the last couple of years when de-banking, geopolitical turmoil, and the threat of Central Bank Digital Currencies reared their ugly heads.
It behooves Americans to diversify their holdings. If there’s a triggering event or series of events that cripple the financial systems or devalue the U.S. Dollar, wealth can evaporate quickly. To hedge against potential turmoil, many Americans are looking in two directions: Crypto and physical precious metals.
There are huge advantages to cryptocurrencies, but there are also inherent risks because “virtual” money can become challenging to spend. Add in the push by central banks and governments to regulate or even replace cryptocurrencies with their own versions they control and the risks amplify. There’s nothing wrong with cryptocurrencies today but things can change rapidly.
As for physical precious metals, many Americans pay cash to keep plenty on hand in their safe. Rolling over or transferring retirement accounts into self-directed IRAs is also a popular option, but there are caveats. It can often take weeks or even months to get the gold and silver shipped if the owner chooses to close their account. This is why Genesis Gold Group stands out. Their relationship with the depositories allows for rapid closure and shipping, often in less than 10 days from the time the account holder makes their move. This can come in handy if things appear to be heading south.
Lots of Potable Water
One of the biggest shocks that hit new preppers is understanding how much potable water they need in order to survive. Experts claim one gallon of water per person per day is necessary. Even the most conservative estimates put it at over half-a-gallon. That means that for a family of four, they’ll need around 120 gallons of water to survive for a month if the taps turn off and the stores empty out.
Being near a fresh water source, whether it’s a river, lake, or well, is a best practice among experienced preppers. It’s necessary to have a water filter as well, even if the taps are still working. Many refuse to drink tap water even when there is no emergency. Berkey was our previous favorite but they’re under attack from regulators so the Alexapure systems are solid replacements.
For those in the city or away from fresh water sources, storage is the best option. This can be challenging because proper water storage containers take up a lot of room and are difficult to move if the need arises. For “bug in” situations, having a larger container that stores hundreds or even thousands of gallons is better than stacking 1-5 gallon containers. Unfortunately, they won’t be easily transportable and they can cost a lot to install.
Water is critical. If chaos erupts and water infrastructure is compromised, having a large backup supply can be lifesaving.
Pharmaceuticals and Medical Supplies
There are multiple threats specific to the medical supply chain. With Chinese and Indian imports accounting for over 90% of pharmaceutical ingredients in the United States, deteriorating relations could make it impossible to get the medicines and antibiotics many of us need.
Stocking up many prescription medications can be hard. Doctors generally do not like to prescribe large batches of drugs even if they are shelf-stable for extended periods of time. It is a best practice to ask your doctor if they can prescribe a larger amount. Today, some are sympathetic to concerns about pharmacies running out or becoming inaccessible. Tell them your concerns. It’s worth a shot. The worst they can do is say no.
If your doctor is unwilling to help you stock up on medicines, then Jase Medical is a good alternative. Through telehealth, they can prescribe daily meds or antibiotics that are shipped to your door. As proponents of medical freedom, they empathize with those who want to have enough medical supplies on hand in case things go wrong.
Energy Sources
The vast majority of Americans are locked into the grid. This has proven to be a massive liability when the grid goes down. Unfortunately, there are no inexpensive remedies.
Those living off-grid had to either spend a lot of money or effort (or both) to get their alternative energy sources like solar set up. For those who do not want to go so far, it’s still a best practice to have backup power sources. Diesel generators and portable solar panels are the two most popular, and while they’re not inexpensive they are not out of reach of most Americans who are concerned about being without power for extended periods of time.
Natural gas is another necessity for many, but that’s far more challenging to replace. Having alternatives for heating and cooking that can be powered if gas and electric grids go down is important. Have a backup for items that require power such as manual can openers. If you’re stuck eating canned foods for a while and all you have is an electric opener, you’ll have problems.
Don’t Forget the Protein
When most think about “prepping,” they think about their food supply. More Americans are turning to gardening and homesteading as ways to produce their own food. Others are working with local farmers and ranchers to purchase directly from the sources. This is a good idea whether doomsday comes or not, but it’s particularly important if the food supply chain is broken.
Most grocery stores have about one to two weeks worth of food, as do most American households. Grocers rely heavily on truckers to receive their ongoing shipments. In a crisis, the current process can fail. It behooves Americans for multiple reasons to localize their food purchases as much as possible.
Long-term storage is another popular option. Canned foods, MREs, and freeze dried meals are selling out quickly even as prices rise. But one component that is conspicuously absent in shelf-stable food is high-quality protein. Most survival food companies offer low quality “protein buckets” or cans of meat, but they are often barely edible.
Prepper All-Naturals offers premium cuts of steak that have been cooked sous vide and freeze dried to give them a 25-year shelf life. They offer Ribeye, NY Strip, and Tenderloin among others.
Having buckets of beans and rice is a good start, but keeping a solid supply of high-quality protein isn’t just healthier. It can help a family maintain normalcy through crises.
Prepare Without Fear
With all the challenges we face as Americans today, it can be emotionally draining. Citizens are scared and there’s nothing irrational about their concerns. Being prepared and making lifestyle changes to secure necessities can go a long way toward overcoming the fears that plague us. We should hope and pray for the best but prepare for the worst. And if the worst does come, then knowing we did what we could to be ready for it will help us face those challenges with confidence.
Great article, and terrifying of course, when John FORBES Kerry is involved, and Bourla, whose background just does NOT mesh timewise, too many facts out of kilter and Bill Gates from the Seattle banking family!
Gates of course, effectively owns and controls the WHO and his Gates Foundation is, in actuality, the largest BIOPHARMACEUTICAL corporation on the planet – – Gates is actively involved in REDUCING EVERYTHING TO SYNTHETICS, THEN PATENTING ALL THOSE SYNTHETICS — — cleved psychopath!
We all remember how Gates’ Oxitec — now under a different owner — released those genetically “modified” mosquitoes, ostensibly to fight dengue, but everywhere he released them there was an explosion of the ZIKA virus (dengue and ZIKA are carried by the same mosquito subspecies)!
Gates was with American Friends of Bilderberg, Inc., with David Rockefeller and Henry Kissinger — may have picked up a few pointers in perfidy from those two! Now Gates is pumping out 11,000 genetically engineered mosquitoes weekly from his South American factory, in either Columbia or Peru?!
