A vaccine that was created during the Cold War in 1984-87, yet took decades before its first small scale use in 2019, is now mandatory in the African country of Cameroon: “RTS,S vaccine was created in 1987 as part of a collaboration between GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) and the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research (WRAIR) that began in 1984.”–RTS,S/AS01 vaccine (Mosquirix™): an overview

By the way, the United Nations’ (UN) World Health Organization (WHO) boasted that by October 2023 that ‘small scale use’ pilot program (which also included another malaria vax known as R21) had been used to vaccinate at least 2-million children in Ghana, Kenya and Malawi!
AfricaNews, 23JAN2024, revealing it takes four doses of the now mandatory vaccine before it will work:
It is known as RTS,S/AS01, or, Mosquirix, a “first-generation malaria vaccine”. It is now being pushed by the UN-WHO/GAVI Vaccine Alliance (formerly known as GAVI=Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization). The UN-WHO is also claiming that their small scale malaria vax pilot program, started back in 2019, has prevented deaths caused by other diseases!
On 31DEC2023, Cameroon became the first country outside of the ‘pilot program’ to impose the world’s first routine/mandatory immunization program on its children. Interestingly, the UN-WHO did not reveal this until 22JAN2024. The UN-WHO also revealed that they’ve been stockpiling the vaccine in Benin, Burkina Faso and Liberia, in preparation for routine/mandatory immunization programs in those countries. For Cameroon, the UN-WHO began quietly stockpiling the vaccines (delivering them at night) in November 2023.
SABC News, 23JAN2024, reveals the rollout was so secret that most parents didn’t even know about the now mandatory vaccine:

Israel occupied The Gaza Strip during the Cold War, in 1967 (what is known in the U.S. as the 1967 War). 1967 is also the year that the U.S. became imbedded into the Tar-Baby called Israel, with a visit, and promise of support, from a politician who would later become the President of the United States:
Today, history being made again. On 11JAN2024, South Africa presented its accusations of a “pattern of genocidal conduct” by Israel to the International Court of Justice, stating that “This killing is nothing short of destruction of Palestinian life. It is inflicted deliberately, no-one is spared, not even newborn babies.”
