About a week before the WHO announced an initiative to create a global digital health certificate, aka a vaccine passport, in partnership with the European Commission they announced a similar partnership with the Rockefeller Foundation to invest $5 million in the newly created WHO Hub for Pandemic and Epidemic Intelligence. Of course, the Rockefeller Foundation has been a WHO sponsor since its inception in 1948 and has contributed $27 million in grants over the past 2 decades, but it was not until January of last year that the foundation established official relations with WHO as a non-state actor.

A Brief History of the Foundation and the Family Behind it

The Foundation was started in 1913 by infamous oil baron and prominent eugenicists John D Rockefeller who funded much of the early research into eugenics through his foundation. His son, John D. Rockefeller Jr. followed closely in his father’s footsteps in this regard, learning about ‘population control theory’ at Brown University, joining the American Eugenics Society and becoming a trustee of the Bureau of Social Hygiene. As head of his father’s foundation, he used health related issues to propagate the twin ideologies of eugenics and Malthusianism across the world including in post WWI Germany. In fact, by 1926, the foundation had donated $410K to hundreds of German eugenics researchers. That same year the foundation also allocated $250K towards the creation of a German Institute for Psychiatric Research run by the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute and between 1925 and 1935, the foundation allocated $3 million for the construction of the facility and the research conducted within the institute. In the early 1930s, the foundation also allocated $125K to the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute on Anthropology, Human Heredity and Eugenics in Berlin to survey the racial composition of the German people. After WWII made eugenics unpalatable, John D. Rockefeller’s son, John D. Rockefeller III and two other prominent “former” Eugenicists founded the Population Council in 1952 . Most of the early funding for the Population Council came from the Rockefeller and Ford foundations. Incidentally, his younger brother David Rockefeller was also a founding member of the Club of Rome, another globalist front group, as well as the Trilateral Commission and was an early contributor to the WEF.
