Recital A
A. whereas the national and interin May 2009 nor the WHO, neither the national health authorities, including the WHO, were aware as early as May 2009 that the H1N1 influenza was not virulent, with this moderate virulence being confirmed by the very low mortality rate observed as a result of this influenza ‘pandemic’ in comparison with the officially recognised figures for seasonal influenza, had reliable data or knowledge on the stability of the structure of the virus, therefore it was impossible to assess the chance of a change in its structure, the consequent increase of its virulence and the possible increase of mortality;

B. whereas the criteria for defining a ‘pandemic’, adopted by the WHO in 2009 and based solely on the propagats based on the decisions of the virus while discounting the severity of the infection, distorted the meaning of the word ‘organisation's participatory countries, and the WHO issued its pandemic’ and triggered a false alarm worldwide, with that alarmism giving rise to inappropriate public health decisions and a disproportionatelert declaration in line with these decisions, following 144 response among the public and administrations of the European Union and its Member Statesrted deaths from 74 countries around the globe,

Ec. whereas due to the early acquisition of vaccines and systematic vaccination strategies, especially among the most vulnerable groups, the EU was the best prepared region in the world, however considerable differences emerged between the preparedness of EU Member States and the lack of genuine cooperation weakened the EU’s overall preparedness,

Recital F b (new)
Fb. whereas the limited cooperation among Member States, especially the lack of joint public procurement of vaccines, the lack of joint stockpiles, the lack of a solidarity and brokerage mechanism between Member States, the absence of prior purchase agreements in several Member States were the main factors undermining the EU’s better preparedness,
