Last Monday, French president Emmanuel Macron told his subjects that COVID vaccinations would now be mandatory for certain segments of the population, and what did we tell you would happen? We told you that all of Europe would soon follow his lead. Well, that didn’t take long. Today England announced draconian vaccination requirements, and in a fitting touch of irony, they made the announcement on ‘Freedom Day’.
In America we have a little bit of a reprieve, it is illegal to make any vaccine mandatory if it has not been approved by the FDA, which none of the COVID vaccines have been. But as soon as that FDA approval happens, many are saying it will be around the middle of September, then it is nearly a sure bet that we will see mandatory vaccinations begin.
FROM THE AP: Clubbers flocked on Monday to the first live music events without restrictions since the COVID-19 pandemic began. The government reopened nightclubs and dropped almost all coronavirus measures in England in a bet that mass vaccinations will prevent another deadly wave of COVID-19. But hours later, Johnson announced that people who were not fully vaccinated, including those who had not had both doses of two-shot immunizations, would be barred from nightclubs.
The decision follows large outbreaks linked to nightclubs in other countries such as the Netherlands and Israel, where authorities were forced to close them again.
“I CAN SERVE NOTICE NOW THAT BY THE END OF SEPTEMBER WHEN ALL OVER 18S WILL HAVE HAD THEIR CHANCE TO BE DOUBLE JABBED, WE’RE PLANNING TO MAKE FULL VACCINATION THE CONDITION OF ENTRY TO NIGHTCLUBS AND OTHER VENUES WHERE LARGE CROWDS GATHER,” JOHNSON TOLD A PRESS CONFERENCE. “PROOF OF A NEGATIVE TEST WILL NO LONGER BE ENOUGH.”
Kate Nicholls, chief executive of the trade association UKHospitality, called the announcement “a hammer blow” for a struggling industry. She said the decision risked creating flashpoints between staff and customers.
“As recently as last week the government asked us to work with them on a voluntary scheme, so this new policy is devastating,” she said. Britain’s chief scientific adviser, Patrick Vallance, said nightclubs and other closed venues could be “potential super spreading events” because of crowds in close contact.
“I would expect that with opening of nightclubs, we’ll continue to see an increase in cases, and we will see outbreaks related to specific nightclubs as well,” he said.
Johnson said that the government was not planning similar requirements for pubs. “I certainly don’t want to see passports for pubs,” he said.
Most people never go to Large Public Events anyway
Boris acts as if BREXIT never happened
Too late Boriski!
Mean while in the UK, Mother Land of the Aussies:
Maskless in London this past week!:
Summer Soltice fun without the maskerbations, panic and spacing in London!
Freed from the Maskzi’s!
Even in Australia!: The natives there are restless and on the move!
The push for this is so creepy, it reminds me of that cheesy movie Kingsman. Everyone got the free cell phone chip so that the evil genius, (Gates?), could depopulate the planet.
Because no one who has been vaccinated hasn’t gotten Covid, died from it, or given it to others, right?
I’m one of them.
Can’t stand crowds, blasting music, excessive noise.
“Most people never go to Large Public Events anyway”
They seem to include nightclubs among ‘large public events’. I’ve never been to a nightclub in my 66 years.
Exactly.
The jokes write themselves.
I think we all know why the mad rush to get everybody jabbed with this stuff.
When I want or need people I’ll call or visit.
Needless to say I do very little of either.
Boris the Dork with Macaroni and cheese
They don’t need no stinking tax revenue
Sounds like underground raves should be making a comeback.
Only....it’s not really about ‘large, public events’.
That’s where it begins....
What comes next?
Entering countries? Oh, that just happened, in Canada.
Travel? Happening somewhat with cruise lines. What’s next? Air travel to ban those who haven’t taken the shots?
You don’t go to Canada? Ok, great. Many must, for work/family.
Then what? Hospitals, for treatment? Grocery stores?
You don’t take cruises, or, air travel, or see docs and you don’t eat?
See where this is going? The French people are trying to fight this tyranny. It will be interesting to see what the rest of the West will do.
Just sayin’.
I don’t like large crowd events, either...but....this is another camel nose under the tent.
BILL BLOW Council Tax crisis looming as 7million can’t afford bills – how to get help
7 million.
The lockdown has done and is doing more damage to the nation than bloody CoupFlu.
I’m curious to see which country’s citizens will be pushed over the edge first and teach their leaders about freedom. It would be an object lesson for the world.
We just want peace and freedom and to be left alone.
I don’t advocate violence. I observe it breaking out in France.
