‘What’s Covid?’ Why People at America’s Hardest-Partying Lake Are Not About to Get Vaccinated
Politico ^ | 7/27/2021 | NATASHA KORECKI

OSAGE BEACH, Mo.—The petite blonde bartender in ripped jean shorts bounced to each side of a square-shaped bar as women in bikinis and shirtless men lined up on a sweltering afternoon to order Bud Light, vodka and soda, and piles of nachos at this dockside retreat in the Lake of the Ozarks region.

In a county designated a Covid hot spot, in a state with one of the lowest vaccination rates in the nation, and in a region where hospitals are nearing capacity as the Delta variant takes hold, Erin, a bartender at Backwater Jack’s, couldn’t be in a more vulnerable position. She interacts closely with hundreds of maskless customers—sometimes on a single day. She knows most of them are probably not vaccinated. And she doesn’t care. She isn’t either.

How do they know it’s the Delta variant and not just regular Covid ?

Do they have a Delta Covid PCR test ?

what difference does it make to the vaccinated? If they were really worried they would be demanding the illegals pouring across the border from who knows which countries bringing who knows what variant. Until they do it’s all just st a soap opera.

If the vaccines end up having serious long term effects, then Trump will be blamed. Even by those who currently worship him.

What will it take for Trump supporters to take the vaccine?

Others can speculate on answers to that question, but meanwhile this is not a vaccine.

The jab using mRNA delivers mRNA in a nano lipid or fat envelope to a cell. It’s a medical device designed to stimulate a cell into becoming a pathogen creator by creating the known to be harmful spike protein.

Vaccine is a defined term in law and under CDC and FDA standards. A vaccine has to stimulate an immunity in the person receiving it. And it must also disrupt transmission. That’s not what this is. Even the drug manufacturers admit the jab or its mRNA does not stop transmission.

The jab is a treatment, but if it’s discussed as a treatment it would not get the sympathetic ear of public health officials because people would ask what other treatments there are. And alternative treatments would hamper FDA’s ability to issue emergency approval of the jabs. See 21 U.S. Code § 360bbb–3(c)(3)

Defining the narrative with the term vaccine is a sucker punch to open and free discourse. “Vaccine” throws the discussion into one of pro/con vaccine. The jab is a mechanical device in the form of a very small packet of technology inserted intoe the human system to activate the cell to become a pathogenetic spike protein manufacturing site.

No basis exists to stipulate this is a vaccine. Simply put, this is a chemical pathogen device meant to unleash chemical pathogen production within a cell. It’s a medical device, not a drug. The jab is not a living or biological system, but rather a physical technology that just happens to come in the size of a molecular package.

“What will it take for Trump supporters to take the vaccine?”

What will it take for busybodies to learn the meaning of the words “F***” and “OFF”?

Mike Adams? The professor from a university in North Carolina?

I thought that he had passed away.

Here is a 4th “what will it take”,

How about a real vaccine?

Not just an injection.

current president biden put the brakes on former president trump’s operation warp speed when he decided to open the border and spread thousands of disease carrying invaders across our country during a so called “global pandemic”...

what will it take for you to understand our government has proven that it doesn’t care about our health and safety and can’t be trusted???...

So you’re probably 100 times more likely to get killed in a car crash if you leave your house today. Guess we should lockdown society permanently or destroy all automobiles due to the automobile-related death pandemic.

Trump worked hard to get a vaccine. What will it take for Trump supporters to take the vaccine?


he was forced to by the screaming left.
The screaming left still runs the government.
I have a very healthy distrust in government.

I will NEVER take their vax.

I’ll tell you what won’t work. Demonizing people being typical Americans. That’s what this is about. Remember this virus was a WEAPON launched by communist China. The goal is to make us pesky freedom loving Americans more compliant to the central government. To beat us down into submission. To make us cultural and societal outcasts if we refuse to go along with the state and the state run media.

BTW, over 35,000,000 Americans have had Covid already and survived, and they’re just as immune as the vaccinated.


it’s actually looking like survivors are MORE immune than Vaxers.

Bingo...

Trump got played by the swamp.

Honestly, he had no choice.

Unlike you, I altered my lifestile...
Well, that’s not 100% fair or true. I started trying to get healthy in November 2019. I lost 60lbs through diet and exercise which more than removed me from the list of people who are likely to be hospitalized much less die from Covid.

The message that should be shouted from the rooftops isn’t “Get your vaccine” — It should be “Be responsible for your health by reducing your risk. If you are unable to do so or just don’t want to, take the experimental shot.”

That’s the fun part - Even the CDC admits the PCR is garbage.

I almost got banned from Facebook last year for explaining why it was garbage... I haven’t looked, but I bet they haven’t removed the fact check from that post.
