Regard the Great Reset: a central plank of which is called agile governance. You have a real-time example before you. Pfizer’s biggest contract was negotiated by text message between the European Commission president and Pfizer’s CEO.

Agile governance is the acceleration of research, and the parallel development and marketing of products, otherwise known as innovating in real time. This requires light-touch regulation and implies minimal government oversight: corporations run the show and officials get out of the way.

Pfizer’s admission that it did not know whether its Covid injections stopped transmission before it released them has led to widespread ridicule. It had to “move at the speed of science to really understand what is taking place in the market.”

That, right there, is the changing relationship between the power of corporations and the waning rights of the populace: innovate from science to market, and to hell with testing, regulation, oversight and the effects — whether a side dish or the main menu.

The viral exchange, in which Pfizer regional president Janine Small confused the words transmission and immunization in answer to Dutch MEP Rob Roos, went thus:

“Was the Pfizer Covid vaccine tested on stopping the transmission of the virus before it entered the market?”

“Regarding the question around did we know about stopping immunization before it entered the market…No., We have to really move at the speed of science to really understand what is taking place in the market.”

In June we learned that the EC president Ursula von der Leyen struck a deal for the Covid shots by text which she cannot find, while three months later members of the purely-advisory, non-legislative European Parliament are still denied access to the contracts: no codes or supervision, no lawmakers to review, just late-night deals between political leaders and multinational corporations.

Reset in a nutshell

Many struggle to describe the Great Reset because it is amorphous and tangential upon other projects and interests. Reduced to its essence it is the consequence of the concentration of wealth and control of technology, resulting in a relatively small, networked group centralizing their power over society.

All else follows: the sustainable development goals, and climate and pandemic treaties are the mechanism to introduce the requisite monetary system based on the rationing of resources.

This is why Co2 is all over the headlines and why politicians and corporations make such noise about “zero carbon” even though carbon dioxide makes up just 0.04 per cent of the atmosphere: carbon is common to everything we eat, produce and emit. It makes a convenient common denominator which, thanks to the invention of carbon permits and carbon trading, has been monetized.

By linking it to a central bank digital currency it can determine your monthly allowance, control how and where you spend it, and offset your future allowance against your consumption or emissions.

It has the potential to be stronger than the iron shackles that any slave ever knew: carbon, in the form of fibre or the newly-discovered form of graphene, is up to 200 times stronger than steel.

The texts

The European Commission is not the only government to play fast and loose with Covid cash; it is a hallmark of the pandemic, from the British government’s 2020 budgeting of £37 billion for smartphone surveillance by Track and Trace over two years, to the $1.9 trillion Inflation Reduction Act just passed by the Biden administration.

The European Public Prosecutor’s Office confirmed three days ago it is investigating the Commission’s purchase of COVID-19 doses as a matter of “extremely high public interest.” Last year the European ombudsman Emily O’Reilly accused top officials of “administrative mismanagement.”

Clearly the contract was not formally sealed by text but Pfizer’s rivalry with AstraZeneca played out over smartphone, between CEO Albert Bourla and political leaders, and likely not in Europe alone.

The European Union’s governing body says it cannot reveal what was discussed at the highest levels because officials cannot find the texts, any emails or related paperwork. Journalists making a freedom of information request were shrugged off. Even members of the European Parliament received a fraction of the contract documention, most of it blacked out in a blot of redaction. [2]

Von der Leyen over-ordered and overpaid. According to a study by People’s Vaccine Alliance (PVA) based on its analysis of Imperial College London data, each dose could have been mass produced for less than $2.

The EC which had originally offered between €5 and €15, conceded as much as €19.50 to Pfizer and $28.50 to Moderna (reduced in a subsequent deal to $25.50).

Researchers estimate that Pfizer and CEO Bourla, having jacked up the price, pocketed an excess of €31 billion. [3]

The structural weakness of the European Parliament was revealed by a Dutch MEP Mohammed Chahim who told the report’s authors, Investigate Europe, that he was unable to question the negotiators. The parliament is purely advisory and has no legislative authority.

That is the model for the Great Reset. Public assemblies will be purely advisory; there is no mechanism for the people to hold decision makers accountable. Corporations through their owners will exert influence as stakeholders; you own nothing and be happy. It is all there in Klaus Schwab’s book The Great Reset, which King Charles launched in June 2020, less than three months into the pandemic. Eat the bugs.

Now millions of doses of the Covid shot lie unused, nearing expiry before their recipients. Demand for injections is slowing. Eastern European countries have asked the EC to reduce supplies — Poland has a stockpile of 30 million doses — yet the bloc contracted with Pfizer and BioNTech for 1.8 billion doses this year and next. If fulfilled, Poland could end up with 100 million unused doses.

Bureaucrats might bleat that it was oversight, that the pressures of planning the Covid response over Zoom during lockdown led to errors. But the response had been planned in advance, with live exercises like Event 201 and the SPARS scenario, and was coordinated by a constellation of well-heeled intergovernmental organizations from the World Health Organization and the World Bank, to quasi-autonomous NGOs like the Global Vaccine Alliance and the World Economic Forum, along with the expertise of the world’s wealthiest corporations and individuals.

By the way, Von der Leyen’s son, David, works for the consultants McKinsey, which played a key role in planning the Covid response.

Lust and lucre

This is nothing new to the EC which has always operated for the gain of giant corporations — the European Union does not guarantee civilian rights by treaty, though it does so for corporations.

Nor is this news to Von der Leyen. She has a record of mismanagement since her time as Germany’s defence minister. In 2018 opposition parties in the Bundestag launched a parliamentary investigation into her role in a spending scandal including her ministry’s allocation of lucrative contracts.

These involved irregularities with McKinsey, whose consultant von der Leyen hired as her deputy to oversee arms procurement. An IT contract with another company for €390 million bypassed the required authorization by the firm’s supervisory board.

Von der Leyen defended her extensive use of outside consultants — private-public partnership being the quintessence of the Great Reset, except that in the Reset the consultants and corporations cement the upper hand that they have now in practice.

The investigators’ report, in June 2020, found “de facto complete failure” in spending, attributable directly to von der Leyen herself.

Financial scandals followed political ones on her watch, from Nazi memorabilia discovered in garrisons to the alleged involvement of soldiers in plots against Left politicians. The Bundeswehr was forced to rename numerous barracks hailing WW2 luminaries.

One would think such discoveries would energize von der Leyen, as she rose unhindered to the European leadership, to reinforce the supposed raison d'être of the European Union: to ensure that war never again scars the continent.

Having family ties with Joachim Freiherr von der Leyen, the Third Reich’s gauleiter (district administrator) in the very region now at war, might alert Ursula to the minfield we tread — you think? But, no!

Germany is to rearm, with the aim, says chancellor Olaf Scholz, of being the continent’s “best equipped” force.

Yet why starve the German industrial machine of the energy on which it depends, a consequence of the dogged pursuit of sanctions against Russia? It is not clear but it sure looks like a feint, part of build back better, a euphemism for the Phoenix to rise from the ashes.
