Update United States 05-23-22
This is a big week as it relates to The World Health Organization and the resolution and the work that we’re doing to try to impact that as well I want to share with you conversations we’ve been having around the profession. So good morning, American chiropractors, my name is Bharon Hoag. I am the Executive Director of OneChiropractic and The Chiropractic Defense Council coming to you today, Monday, May 23rd, 2022 for your weekly update. Well, first of all, you can clearly tell I’m not in my normal office and I sincerely apologize for the poor quality of this video. I forgot my normal camera when I’m traveling. So I apologize, but I definitely wanted to make sure that we got this update. I’m actually in Detroit right now at Brainwave, which is a neurologically based chiropractic seminar. Those of you that have been following us for a long time, know that we’re very passionate about the idea of adjustment and its impact on the brain.
I always love coming and sharing and, and educating chiropractors to get to the root of exactly where this, the power of adjustment comes from. So a pretty awesome event here this weekend. But again, I apologize for the poor quality. This week is a pretty active week for us as our legal team and our lobbyists are aggressively working to try to impact what’s happening with The World Health Organization. I know we’ve been talking about this the last couple of weeks. It’s just an unbelievable discussion that’s being had. Honestly, I can’t believe that any leader of any country would agree to give away their sovereign rights to any national or international organization. But again, if you’re not staying up on this, there’s a resolution that all of the countries have a vote again on this resolution this week where all of these countries that are connected with The World Health Organization will allow The World Health Organization to deem pandemics in the future and come into any country and do shutdowns and impose all kinds of stuff.
We’re doing our due diligence to truly understand the real impact of the resolution. I’m having a hard time understanding how anybody could come into the United States and be able to do that without a state individually, allowing them to do it. So there’s a lot of confusion about this bottom line. It’s scary on any level to think that there would be such a resolution or any type of impact on the countries in that capacity. So we’re monitoring that and our legal and lobbying team are aggressively working with our legislators, making them aware of this, and questioning the Biden administration. So we’ve been very active. We’ll keep you updated next week, we’ll have a bit more information as we’ll see how that vote goes this week. Also continuing to have conversations, talking with college presidents, talking with individuals around, looking at the framework and understanding of chiropractic. I’ve been kind of beating that drum for the last few weeks, and I’m telling you, it’s very interesting. I’m having a lot of fun learning and having conversations. I’m so thankful to those individuals, for talking to me and giving me the information I need once we’re done building all of this I’m going to spend some time educating you because as I’m learning, there are a lot of misconceptions about these different organizations and how things operate and where we’re going to start putting our emphasis. As I’ve shared with you in the beginning, we have to start taking seriously how our profession operates as we move into this next phase of healthcare and that we’re really at that level right now. And so, I’m excited to continue to dig and have these conversations and force people to have conversations that maybe they don’t want to have, but are necessary for the future of our profession. I know that was kind of vague. I didn’t give you much information there, but I’m not quite ready to unleash everything we’re learning. I want you to know that we’re doing a deep dive into our profession and I’m excited to come out with the information that we’ve gleaned from this process.
This week I want you to continue to love and serve. I want you to remember the power of the adjustment. I want you to remember why we work together, why you connected with our organization, and the work that’s being done around the world. We’re still actively fighting in British Columbia against the x-ray issue. We’ve just doubled down and we’re taking the lead on that particular effort. We’re working with our military. We had another great week this week, having conversations with leaders and The National Guard in Michigan, and we’re doing a number of different things.
So we appreciate you. We couldn’t do any of this if it wasn’t for you guys and your belief in us and your contribution. So I appreciate it. Please help us by spreading the word. We have so much work to do and we have limited resources to do it. So again, we’re asking a lot of people to do a little bit. If you can help us spread the word, that would be absolutely fantastic. We love you. We appreciate you. I’ll be back to you next week with a better quality video. I apologize again for this but just wanted to make sure that we stay in touch with you. Have an incredible week. God bless you. Continue to love and serve your communities and know that we’ve got your back in the process. Have an incredible week. God bless you.
