“…Leana S. Wen, a physician and former Public Health Commissioner for the City of Baltimore, wrote a piece in the Washington Post demanding that we put on masks.
Her tone was such that I am sure the S stands for Sister Mary Elephant, the Catholic teacher Cheech and Chong mocked in the 1970s.
She took the kindergarten approach in threatening group punishment because a few people have exercised their right not to be vaccinated.
Wen wrote, “The CDC is trying to urge localities and businesses to reimplement indoor mask requirements given surging coronavirus infections. That’s the right policy, but it’s using the wrong explanation. The vaccinated are not a major source of spread. Even if every vaccinated person puts on a mask, that’s not going to solve things when the vast majority of transmission is by the unvaccinated.
“And that is the actual problem that the CDC is trying to solve: It wants to get the unvaccinated to put on masks in indoor spaces. Without proof of vaccination, the only way to reliably to do this is to ask the vaccinated to also don our masks. Relying on the honor system was a big fail, and the best way to curb the current surge is to get everyone to mask up again.
“That’s what the CDC should have announced: We need a return to indoor mask mandates not because the vaccinated are suddenly a problem, but because we don’t trust the unvaccinated to voluntarily do the right thing. It’s not a commentary about the effectiveness of the vaccine, or even the trickiness of the delta variant, but rather about the failure of unvaccinated Americans to fulfill their societal obligation to act in the interest of everyone’s health.”
The “honor system was a big fail”?
What honor system?
Under federal law no one has to tell you if they have been vaccinated.
The only honor system that failed is the public health system that Wen and the rest created.
The very first thing Tony the Traitor Fauci told us was a travel ban won’t work.
Then he told “60 Minutes,” “There’s no reason to be walking around with a mask.”
Wen and the rest of the medical bureaucracy know cloth masks don’t work. They also know social distancing is a joke.
They demanded to shut down the economy for a couple of weeks to slow the spread of the virus, and that became a permanent situation in California and elsewhere.
All their talk and orders for the past 16 month have failed. We were told if we did everything they said we should do, there would be 200,000 deaths.
More than 3 times as many people died.
Wen, Fauci, and all the rest of them do not know what they are doing. Rather than admit that truth, they insist on masks that don’t work and promote an unproven social distancing protocol.
What they lack in knowledge they make up in vanity. Fauci preens on CNN and sneers at the public for daring to ask, doc, why does none of this work?
The only mistake the public has made is in trusting public health officials.
The public owes them nothing. No one should be forced to be vaccinated, and no one should have to tell any government official if he has been vaccinated. It is called freedom.
NBC reported, “At least 125,000 fully vaccinated Americans have tested positive for Covid and 1,400 of those have died, according to data collected by NBC News.”
The Washington Post reported, “CDC study shows three-fourths of people infected in Massachusetts covid-19 outbreak were vaccinated.”
Wen is blaming the unvaccinated for the failure of her and the rest of the public health administrator industry to handle covid calmly and rationally. Instead we get all sorts of different advice depending in what the politics are that day.
Remember those clap on/clap off light switches?
Public health administrators are doing mask on/mask off.
The unvaccinated are the new Jews, scapegoats for the failure of Faucism to protect the masses. Yes, you probably should get vaccinated. I did. But it is your choice.
The unvaccinated are not the problem. The problem is her and all the other Sisters Mary Elephant who were so cocksure about the virus — and so dead wrong.
No one should trust them at all…”
