In 1986, the space shuttle Challenger blew up a minute after launch. Several engineers with Morton Thiokol warned before the launch that the O rings were dangerous and that launching the shuttle in cold weather could lead to catastrophic failure.

They were overruled and the launch took place — because there was tremendous pressure from NASA on all of its contractors to launch on schedule. Morton Thiokol transferred out two engineers who adamantly refused to sign off on the launch.

Seven people died unnecessarily because of pressure to approve the launch.

This vaccine emergency approval reminds me of that. If there are any problems with the vaccine — and I do mean if,because I truly don’t know — I don’t believe that many people would have the intestinal fortitude to stand up against the weight of the entire federal government, and if they did, I can easily imagine their superiors overriding their objections and approving the vaccine anyway. These days, any objectors wouldn’t just be transferred out; they’d likely be disappeared.

That makes a lot of sense. I wonder how many they would have to jail or kill to achieve an acceptable vaccinated population in America? I think the answer from the “powers that be” is as many as possible. Why else would there be this serious discussion over something that has a 99% survival rate? You and your family will either take ake the shot or else.
