They don’t seem to have included ‘The Government’ as a risk
Maybe because the probably of harm from the government is 100%, so no risk analysis required. It’s a dead cert.
Does it say how we are countering this threat, as ‘piss our pants and run around like headless chickens doing stupid stuff’ turned out not to be as effective as we hoped…
And it wasnt even a threat. Everyone ran around scared of ghosts.
As usual the Davos Deviants are telling us what they have in the pipeline.
My reckoning is that Billy’s new release will be either 2024 or 2025 and after the new IHR have been dotted and signed, but not before. All the other threats are just ‘maybe’s’ depending on the reaction to the next Scamdemic. If we tell them to F. O. and ignore it they will ramp the pressure with something else.
Nothing new here really.
Agree with you. 1918, 1950s (polio etc), 1976, 2001, 2020….2025-27 is most likely. Married to GlobaloneyBoiling and Melting. Permafrost ‘melt’ releases the scary mammoth virus which flies a few million miles and infects everyone. Pangolins, Bats, Science and all that. Happily Kill Gates and friends will have the magic mRNA elixir to hand…
It won’t necessarily be a pandemic next, or anything we’ve become familiar with… This new “Risk Assessment” document will serve as a convenient toolkit that any state, corporation, supra-national body or billionaire, or an axis combining all of these seeking total control, can pick and choose from to keep the public feeling “sufficiently threatened” and hence subservient to their globalist goals. It appears they’ve done themselves a nice little handbook of over 90 scare tactics to pull out of the bag, depending on the latest fashion!
Doesn’t matter whether it’s a “pandemic” a threat from Russia, climate nonsense or Martian invasion – it only matters the level of fear it induces.
It will probably be an Earthquake in LA. Now just stop that!
Of course Russian disruption had to be on the list. The Russians haven’t disrupted our energy supplies, we did it to ourselves helped out by our partner in crime USA through sanctions and a bit if help blowing up a pipeline.
Russia’s best weapon against UK is our irrational, incompetent governing classes of all stripes who now use propaganda at least as frequently as Russia did in the cold war, and whose obsession with saving the world from the evils of British co2 have managed to ship many of the sources of it overseas.
Breaking news, it was an undersea Pacific volcano last year that caused a 10% rise in atmospheric H2O vapour (a far more potent greenhouse gas than carbon (sic)) which caused a minor rise in temperature.
”The register said a fresh pandemic may be worse than Covid and could affect half of the population, with an estimated 1.34 million people needing hospital treatment and up to potential 840,000 deaths.”
Yes and I’m sure 400 years ago that would indeed be a possibility but fortunately today we have specific things called *medicines* and a healthy ( and growing ) distrust of governments, ergo, shove your flipping fear porn PsyOp up your backsides! Honestly, this garbage has ”Neil Ferguson” written all over it.
Hello 77th Hamster Penis Regiment <wavey hand morphing to flip the bird!> I know you’ll be watching to see how this crap is being received by the non-brainwashed segment of the population..You think we’re gonna fall for this BS you can jog on, munters!

When did any ‘medicine work ? More side effects more medicine, permanent damage, no I’ll think I’ll dodge the si called ‘vaccines’ avs vouch for my 100,000 year old immune system thanks
An alternative view could be that Covid-19 wasn’t actually as bad as we feared, until we assisted it in various ways. Need to plan ahead more to do a proper job.
Translation – “One in Four Chance of us Pulling Another Pandemic Scam in Next Five Years, According to New Government Analysis”
This is how the world becomes a miserable, cheerless place to live in.
A technocrat draws up a “risk analysis” and puts everything he can think of in it, so that no one can ever accuse him of having been careless.
Then the toxic document is handed to policy makers who are told they can ignore it at their own peril. They of course want to cover their arses too, so they act on it.
And so we shuffle towards a dystopian world in which we live assuming the worst, preparing for catastrophe and obsessively weeding out every shred risk until our lives are so miserable we might as well top ourselves.
Brand new study looking at the cardiovascular outcomes of adolescents who were diagnosed with Covid vax-induced myocarditis, a 1 year follow-up;
”To our knowledge, this is the longest follow-up study to date with comprehensive cardiac evaluation and imaging of adolescent patients diagnosed with COVID-19 vaccine–associated myocarditis. Global systolic ventricular function appears to be preserved. However, impairment of LV and RV myocardial deformation and persistence of LGE in a significant subset of patients with up to 1 year of follow-up was observed. Growing evidence suggests worse prognosis in the presence of altered myocardial deformation and LGE in patients with myocarditis.
A short-term study reported abnormal CMR-derived LV longitudinal strain and LGE in 70% to 75% of adolescent patients with COVID-19 vaccine–associated myocarditis followed up for 3 to 8 months. Similar CMR findings were found in young adults studied at 3 to 6 months after the initial diagnosis. The implications of impaired systolic and diastolic myocardial deformation and LGE in our patient subset remain unclear. Nonetheless, given that impaired myocardial deformation and LGE are indicators of subclinical myocardial dysfunction and fibrosis, there exists a potential long-term effect on exercise capacity and cardiac functional reserve during stress.”

Jobs for the boys. Keeps the service busy, but could they just hand it over to the likes of Ladbrokes, Paddy Power etc?
How prescient these criminals who profited from the scamdemic were. No wonder they’re all hinting at and gleefully rubbing their hands together at the prospect of the next one. Good 5min video;

Hospitals across 5 US states targeted in a cyber attack today. I read about 5 Italian banks being hacked the other day too. Now who’s warned us about these future cyber attacks in the recent past….?
”MANCHESTER, Conn. – A cyberattack disrupted hospital computer systems in several states, forcing some emergency rooms to close and ambulances to be diverted, and many primary care services remained closed Friday as security experts worked to determine the extent of the problem and resolve it.
The “data security incident” began Thursday at facilities operated by Prospect Medical Holdings, which is based in California and has hospitals and clinics there and in Texas, Connecticut, Rhode Island and Pennsylvania.”

You know how the Russians used to get the blame for everything? Now my go-to scapegoat is Klaus. Entirely justified, I listen to what people are telling us. Arrogant gits. He does fit the part though, you must admit…

Mogs – Davos Deviants as I usually refer.
100% chance. It’s already been planned.
According to Bill Gates, there’s 100% chance of another pandemic very shortly after the WHO’s new Pandemic Treaty has been implemented.
He even knows that it will target young people.

Stupid pointless politicians,
You mean ” seasonal flu” or the untreated diseases casually allowed in across the channel
I don’t think politicians have noticed yet, that nobody takes any notice of them anymore.
And pray tell how are they predicting that unless it is man made? Or staged even? Our government needs dissolving they serve no purpose anymore other than to make us poor and fearful
I wouldn’t say the failure of the UK electricity supply system was a remote chance. All we need is another winter, or even a month or so, similar to that of 1963 and I think any small reserve built into the system will quickly be used up, and rolling power cuts would become commonplace. We haven’t done, but I know quite a few people now who have bought generators for just such an eventuality. (Although we live in an area where power cuts are common – any severe weather and the lights go out.)
I’m surprised a ‘Carrington’ type event isnt mentioned, which would take out most of the world’s electronics.
I wonder what’s planned for the next scamdemic? I mean, if you re-marketed norovirus as a potentially deadly illness, milions of people would happily believe it.
What’s planned next? Just take a look at the jabs being
enabledapproved by the FDA & MHRA. My money’s on RSV or Dengue, or whatever else Billy can get into his genetically modified mozzies and tics.No 1 on the list:
Self-destruction of society and infrastructure by pursuing Net Zero.
I wonder whether anywhere in this report is included the greatest threats to our ways of life in the history of humankind… These include:
The Pandemic Treaty and the amendments to the International Health Regulations.
Net Zero
Central Bank Digital Currencies
The Ministry of Truth
Surveillance, data capture and digital IDs
Censorship of inconvenient truths.
… Oh sorry, I forgot, all these things were just designed to protect us, of course!
It’s well accepted that (serious pandemics)
(or determined to cause one!)
Occur once a century.. then two come along in 4-5 years, really!…it’s almost as if they are willing one into existence
Not even cause one – just declare one! Take you pick out of thousands of new pathogens and strains of pathogens emerging every single day, and call it a pandemic. Once you’ve given it that name, you can pull all manner of stunts.
The most chronic threat to the western world are our own shyte governments! which ever one we have forced upon us through lack of real alternatives
Everyone dies sometime, why the fuss? It is all part of the blame game and more cash!
