New York Post (NYP) opinion piece got it near 100% correct, except for the statement on COVID vaccines & maybe could have used harsher words but I applaud, WELL done!
'COVID vaccine don’t stop you from spreading it. (& the natural immunity from having had COVID is better than immunity from a jab); Masks do nothing to reduce transmission, nor does 6 feet distancing
SOURCE:
Another AMNESTY try and NYP must stop this ‘mea culpa’ BS. We need way more than ‘I am sorry’. Too many died due to the malfeasance and ineptness.
NYP wrote this:
‘Closing schools seemed sensible in the earliest days of 2020, but the data soon proved that young kids basically never get the bug. Most masks do nothing to reduce transmission, nor does six feet of social distancing. And making toddlers mask in school risks major developmental harm.
Heavy-lockdown states fared no better in health outcomes than mainly-open ones — and fared worse economically and most likely in mental health, too.
Every element of the public-health establishment from Dr. Anthony Fauci on down got many of these points wrong, even long after the science was clear. Worse still, government pushed censorship (as “misinformation”) of any discussion of the downsides of any intervention. And that included the real risks to younger men of cardiac problems associated with vaccination.
In short, the public-health establishment earned a ton of distrust. Tragically, that’s now feeding doubts about MMR jabs, leaving more New York kids vulnerable to measles, mumps and other childhood diseases that actually present real danger to the young — unlike COVID.
So what is the city doing in response to this catastrophe? “Confronting rising vaccination hesitancy through media campaigns, providing educational forums to providers and community-based organizations, and providing tools to talk about vaccine confidence with patients and parents.”
More lectures, in short, from the lost-credibility crew.’
‘America needs a trustworthy public-health establishment, but getting it requires some kind of truth-and-reconciliation commission, with significant firings and massive, unflinching and public mea culpas from city, state and federal health departments — and reforms aiming to ensure they never make the same mistakes again.’
One line from the article: “For the record: Vaccines greatly reduce your chances of getting COVID, and of having a severe case if you still do.”
For the record, this statement is false on both counts. Covid vaccines increase chances of getting covid, and don’t reduce severe cases at all. Just the opposite. These products weaken the immune system and worsen any illness from covid. The vast majority of covid hospitalizations since 2021 are to vaccinated people.
the final sentence of this whine says it all, and shows the fundamental dishonesty of it.
" . .to ensure they never make the same MISTAKES again."
I just saw a vid by Sasha Latypova pointing out that after the first deaths from the vaxx were noticed EVERYTHING done thereafter WAS DELIBERATE.
Not only that but Pfizer was forced to make it known that they KNEW all the damages from the vaxx BEFORE rollout.
THERE WERE NO MISTAKES, unless the holocaust of 1933-45 were a mistake, for both it and today's mass murder were as deliberate as each other
