The Vaccination Strategy 2023–2030
The Government Decision on the approval of the National Vaccination Strategy in Romania for the period 2023–2030, and the connection between Alexandru Rafila, the minister of “health”, and General Anton Rog of the Romanian Intelligence Service, head of Cyberint
On Thursday I asked you: “What do Alexandru Rafila, the minister of ‘health’, and General Anton Rog of the Intelligence Service, head of Cyberint, have in common?” I received many answers from you, nearly all of them correct in my view.
Now let me tell you what else Messrs AR and AR have in common, besides their initials, besides the same obedience towards the same masters and, very probably, the same rank:
SOCIAL ENGINEERING is the element common to the two — social engineering with different ends, certainly, but with identical means and, I am convinced, identical instruments.
Whereas Anton Rog said openly: “In short, within a month, we can make you, through a link, through an SMS, through smishing (a social-engineering attack that uses false mobile text messages to trick people into downloading malware, sharing sensitive information or sending money to cyber-criminals — our note), through a telephone we give you, perform an action we wish you to perform against your will. Yes? That is what social engineering means: to make you do something that you would not normally want to do”,
Alexandru Rafila tells us just as openly that he will use all the means necessary TO PERSUADE ROMANIAN SOCIETY TO BE VACCINATED. And if he does not persuade it, he will compel it — of that too I have not the slightest doubt.
So as not to have “words at the trial”, I shall in what follows use exclusively quotations from the “National Vaccination Strategy in Romania for the period 2023–2030”, leaving you to understand what there is to understand:
“an extension of the current approaches to immunisation by formulating specific programmes for:
- populations at increased risk of complications associated with vaccine-preventable diseases (for example pregnant women, children, adolescents and adults with chronic diseases, immunosuppressed persons)
- vulnerable persons (migrants, persons of high mobility who frequently change residence, INHABITANTS OF RURAL AREAS AND SOCIO-ECONOMICALLY DISADVANTAGED COMMUNITIES, communities affected by conflicts, disasters and humanitarian crises).
- health workers” (pp. 3–4)
“The capacity to sustain a high and equitable level of vaccination coverage depends on numerous factors: political commitment; efficient management and financing of the programmes; efficient implementation of the services with adequate human resources; (…) the demand for and acceptance of vaccines by the population; the hesitancy to accept vaccination, which in itself may have many fundamental causes.” (p. 4)
“II The Vision: the present strategy has as its vision the attainment of the maximum benefits of vaccination in Romania, by ensuring equitable access to safe and effective vaccination services, which should contribute to a better state of health of the population, so that anyone, at any time and AT ANY AGE may benefit from vaccines for the good of his own health and well-being.” (p. 6)
“III The existing priorities, policies and legal framework (…) A global strategy of leaving no one behind (IA 2030) establishes an ambitious global vision and a vaccination strategy for the decade 2021–2030 for all the states of the world.” (p. 6)
“IV Analysis of the context and definition of the problems (…) We have entered a new era marked by a doubling of the number of available vaccines, as well as by the development of new vaccines. Vaccination services are increasingly used, becoming a basic element of health systems. (…) The most important thing, however, remains the awareness by the decision-makers of the situation and their assumption of a clear resolution as to whether or not the question of vaccination constitutes one of the absolute priorities for the harmonious and healthy development of children in Romania” (pp. 10–11)
“(…) Among the challenges the national vaccination programme currently faces we may list:
1. Certain problems of general or specific regulation, or of the implementation of the regulations, which limit the commitment of decision-makers, of professionals and of society to the support of vaccination
2. Certain disturbances in the efficient management of the National Vaccination Programme (…)
3. The shortage of medical personnel involved in vaccination and the variability of their training (…)
4. Hesitancy to accept vaccination
In Romania the population has a degree of vaccination hesitancy, and part of the medical personnel adopt a somewhat defensive practice in matters of vaccination. (…) There exists a degree of distrust among the population regarding the safety of vaccination, fear of adverse reactions constituting an important reason for not being vaccinated. These problems could be solved (…) by ensuring sustained campaigns of information for the population and by individual counselling regarding the benefits of vaccination and also the risks of not being vaccinated.” (…)
5. Equitable access to vaccination (…)
6. Aggressive anti-vaccination campaigns
Often various entities in society promote in the public space distorted messages regarding vaccination, its purposes and consequences, or regarding the quality of the vaccines or their so-called “experimental” character. In order to increase uptake and acceptance of vaccination, broad and credible communication campaigns are needed, sustained at national level in general and at local level in particular — according to the characteristics of the respective communities. (!!!)
“V The general and specific objectives
“General Objective no. 1: Ensuring a framework of policies and regulations favourable to the encouragement of vaccination, (…)
General Objective no. 2: ENSURING UNIVERSAL ACCESS TO VACCINATION THROUGHOUT LIFE.” (!!!) (P. 15) (…)
General Objective no. 8: Communication for increasing the population’s trust in the benefits of vaccination, through sustainable social partnership
Specific objective 8.1: The creation of a sustainable social partnership for vaccination (which may include authorities, decision-makers, professionals in the medical system, civil-society organisations, economic entities, the media, organisations/professionals favourable to vaccination). (…)
Specific objective 8.4: The implementation of communication strategies for vaccination aimed at vulnerable communities or groups
Specific objective 8.5: Increasing the level of trust in the system of evaluation and monitoring of vaccine safety in Romania.” (p. 16)

“VII The expected results
(…) The Strategy will have as its effect the consolidation of the capacity of all the sectors involved in attaining the immunisation objectives, the improvement of cooperation between sectors so as to ensure the following results by the year 2030:
* vaccination coverage above 90% for all the vaccines included in the national vaccination programme
* vaccination coverage of 70% for lifelong vaccination in the groups at risk for vaccine-preventable diseases
* An increase in the population’s demand for/acceptance of vaccination (…)” (p. 20)
“XII The implications for the legal framework
(…) For the implementation of the strategy it is necessary THAT THE VACCINATION ACT BE ADOPTED, as primary legislation.” (!!!)
I leave you to draw the conclusions yourselves.
And in order to have the full picture of the phenomenon, I ask you to read carefully, in the pictures attached, WHO signs and countersigns and ENDORSES the above initiative — AND IT IS ONLY THIS THAT SHOWS THE SIZE AND THE GRAVITY OF THE PROBLEM!
And there is something else: ON THURSDAY WE ALL GO TO THE MINISTRY OF HEALTH, because on Thursday there will be debates on the above draft Government Decision!
WE MUST STOP THIS NAZI LEGISLATION WHILE WE STILL CAN!
I shall return with more comments in future posts, for we too, those of us who promote the “aggressive anti-vaccination campaigns”, know a thing or two about “advocacy” and understand a little about “social marketing” as well!
