I recently blogged about how population control group, International Planned Parenthood Federation or IPPF is getting involved in the fight against Ebola.
Now…another population control organization, The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has stepped into the Ebola fight. The Gates are huge doors of eugenic abortion which leaves many suspicious of their supposed charitable efforts worldwide and especially in African nations.
According to news from the University of Washington, The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation is working to avert future emergencies and decrease the spread of the current outbreak. The foundation is working with various organizations to provide funding for Ebola interventions, increase support in the three affected countries, and increase emergency response systems in unaffected countries throughout West Africa.
“There are ways we can get ahead of future disasters by making these core investments,” said Amanda Lanzarone, part of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation’s Emergency Response team. “We work on long term programming to improve capacity of local responders so they are not completely overwhelmed when response of this magnitude hit.”
In September, The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation announced that it will commit $50 million to support the scale up of emergency efforts to contain the Ebola outbreak in West Africa and interrupt transmission of the virus.
The foundation stated that they would immediately release flexible funds to United Nations agencies and international organizations involved in the response to enable them and national governments to purchase badly needed supplies and scale up emergency operations in affected countries. In addition, the foundation will work with public and private sector partners to accelerate the development of therapies, vaccines, and diagnostics that could be effective in treating patients and preventing further transmission of the disease.
According to their website, the Gates Foundation has committed more than $10 million of the $50 million to fight the Ebola outbreak, including $5 million to World Health Organization (WHO)for emergency operations and R&D assessments and $5 million to the U.S. Fund for UNICEF to support efforts in Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea to purchase essential medical supplies, coordinate response activities, and provide at-risk communities with life-saving health information. An additional $2 million will also be committed immediately to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to support incident management, treatment, and health care system strengthening.
The end of September 2014, Bill Gates told Politico that Ebola is a great example of where the world needs to come together. “I’m sure we will be able to get this under control,” he said.
After Ebola broke out in Dallas, Texas, Bill Gates spoke to Bloomberg about their efforts:
Perhaps this news is just indicative of a charitable and philanthropic agenda on behalf of Bill Gates and his Foundation.
Or…perhaps the organization, known for their population control and abortion agenda, has something more up their sleeve.
What that is- we may not know for years to come….but…stay tuned.
If you do not know about the Gates/ Abortion connection read: Gates says they don’t fund abortion so why do they fund abortion providers ?
