Globalists: Buying the global public health – McKinsey & Company influenced the transformation of WHO.

"…how these secretive businesses, which mostly profit from serving corporate interests, are shaping global public health is an open question — and one that’s hard to answer. An additional mystery: How much money — designated by foundations and governments for improving the health of the poorest — is being spent on them?"

"'The rise of the Gates Foundation has resulted in more space being created for management consultancies to solve global health’s problems,' said Devi Sridhar, chair in global public health at the University of Edinburgh. 'The challenge is trying to follow the money, and figure out the relationships between funders like Gates, consultancy firms, and the WHO.' Indeed, the philanthropic juggernaut changed the face of global health. It also quietly played an instrumental role in launching the field’s consulting era."

"'WHO is faced with budget constraints,' McGoey said. 'They’re under-resourced, and they need financing from somewhere. But they may have been a little naive in accepting a lot of Gates money, because it does come with strings attached.'" 

"Those strings can involve hiring consultants, an ex-McKinsey consultant who worked on global health projects, said. As Gates began regularly paying for consultants on behalf of institutions like the WHO, it created a 'reliance' on the firms. Then, the person said, 'it became more of the norm to pull these same consultants in for strategy.'"

When consultants’ advice fails, it’s the lives of the poor and marginalized on the line.… In the case of McKinsey’s work with UNITAID, an organization funded mainly by public money, it was a high-profile fundraising initiative for tuberculosis, HIV/AIDS, and malaria in developing countries that failed.

 

The problem with the winner-take-all approach to solving public problems is that the winners, McKinsey among them, get to shape what change is and ignore their role in perpetuating the very problems they claim to be solving.

Tedros was the former Ethiopian Minister of Health, and Minister of Foreign Affairs. He joined the Tigray People's Liberation Front in 2001, a left-wing ethnic nationalist and paramilitary group which was also classified as a terrorist organization with a historical leaning to Communism, Marxism–Leninism and Hoxhaism.
