The British Prime minister Boris Johnson, who hails from a long line of Rabbies amps up the fear mongering and calls for further abolishment of national sovereignty:

"Prime Minister Boris Johnson has called for a "new international treaty for pandemic preparedness and response".

"Mr Johnson was joined by French president Emmanuel Macron and German chancellor Angela Merkel as he said the coronavirus pandemic had been a "stark and painful reminder that nobody is safe until everyone is safe".

[(((Newspapers)))] around the world have repeated the plea, which is also backed by countries including Portugal, Romania, Rwanda, Kenya, Greece, Chile, South Korea, Costa Rica, South Africa, Tunisia, Senegal, Spain, Ukraine, and Norway.

They want a treaty similar to the settlement forged after the Second World War to build cross-border cooperation before the next international health crisis.

Writing in The Daily Telegraph, Mr Johnson said: "There will be other pandemics and other major health emergencies.

"No single government or multilateral agency can address this threat alone."
