Obey or suffer the consequences.
According to America’s “most closely watched forecast model,” the United States is projected to experience almost 100,000 additional COVID-19 deaths between now and December 1st. However, “experts” say that figure could be halved if everyone wore a mask in public spaces. (I say we’d all be better off if the number of “experts” was halved.) The experts whine that we’d all be safer and better off if Americans change their ways.
Ali Mokdad, a professor of health metrics sciences at the University of Washington in Seattle, opined that “We can save 50,000 lives simply by wearing masks. That’s how important behaviors are.” A veritable plethora of studies beg to differ with Professor Mokdad and other pro mask extremists.
Seattle’s Dr. Gaby Sauza was vaccinated this past winter yet still contracted the coronavirus after attending an outdoor wedding in Vermont, even though everyone attending the soiree had to submit photos of their vaccination cards. Other celebrants tested positive as well. She says this proves even the vaccinated should be wary and take precautions and notes that, “In retrospect, absolutely, I do wish I had worn a mask.”
Sauza credits the vaccine with keeping her infection manageable, though she suffered through several days of body aches, fevers, night sweats, fatigue, coughing and chest pain. Hmmm. Many unvaccinated folks who get COVID are asymptomatic or barely aware something is amiss. And, if everyone who attended the wedding and caught the dreaded virus was vaccinated and spent most of the time outdoors, a better conclusion might be that the vaccines aren’t all they’re cracked up to be.
If we all have to be locked down, masked up, and socially distanced so as to limit the deleterious affects of our otherwise risky behavior, shouldn’t we be consistent about it?

They need to just shut up, nobody cares any more. I’m old, I’ve worked really hard all my life and there isn’t much time remaining. I don’t want to spend what is left hiding like a frightened rabbit or wearing a stupid mask.
You could die just crossing a street, or by living in NYC or by any of a thousand different ways. Just let us live our lives.
He says this after extensive study has proven that 1 - the virus is not transmissible out of doors, and, 2 - masks do not prevent the spread of the virus.
“this prediction is meant to continue the terror in people who are already terrified”
Never been truer words spoken! There’s a certain mentality of people that are terrified over anything and the rats take total advantage of them. And this group is solid rat voters. They are simply not capable of sorting out facts and statistics to discover the masks, distancing and fake shots do not work.
Unfortunately my doctor is one of them.
LOL!
I wonder if the powers will be using tanks and burn to death the Branch Covidian’s women and children?
How about this: If you want to wear a mask, wear it. If you don’t want to wear a mask, don’t.
I got the stupid jabs with the experimental drug, hopefully won’t grow a third arm, or croak early from it. Was hoping the shot would give me that X-ray vision like they advertised in comic books when I was a kid. Very disappointed with that part.
He’s right in a sense. We DO need to change our evil ways.
That includes journalists who deliberately lie to their readers/viewers.
That includes politicians who structure laws to put vast amounts of money in their own pockets.
That includes doctors who are more interested in treating illness that curing it.
That includes scientists who are more interested in research grants that uncovering the truth.
That includes bribers and bribe takers.
That includes people who think it’s acceptable to kill inconvenient or troublesome people who have committed no crime.
That includes people who seek to silence or jail people who disagree with them or think unacceptable thoughts.
That includes people who support the Constitution when they run for office and then forget about it once they’re in.
And this is just the tip of the iceberg.

A swamp creature.
“Just let us live our lives”
Amen to that! When I see the word “expert”, I immediately substitute “waggy fingered scold”
Masks can stop particles in the micrometer range. This virus is in the NANOMETER range. That’s a problem of 1000x too small for masks to work.
Regardless, how many wear the same mask all day? Or for many days? The virus & bacteria that pollute a mask will easily spread simply because people touch their masks all the time, then touch everything else.
So between the physical properties of the mask and human behavior we accomplish nothing.
We should never allow our personal liberties to be constrained because a government bureaucrat uses words like ‘science’ or ‘experts’. NO. They should be required to publish all sources, data, and methods that can then be used in open debate. But they don’t, they just hide behind vague claims.
That said, I believe they should only EVER be able to issue an ‘emergency recommendation’, not orders. If people are dropping dead in the street we’ll all adjust our behavior. Telling us they’re indefinitely suspending the Constitution is unacceptable.
You don’t know how many times I’ve been told “I’m Immune” after friends got the Covid Vaccination or words to that affect.
Usually they were really excited to ditch the masks, start going out again and getting back to a normal life.
They were told and were convinced the Covid Vaccines were just like the ones they got has children, basically once you get vaccinated you were good for the rest of your life.
They are going to start to realize the vaccines are not permanent they wear off after 6-8 month and you can still get infected and transmit Covid after getting vaccinated.
The more times people are told they need a booster shot, the number people getting a booster will diminish...
There was very little research into the side effects of the vaccines to begin with, but there is absolutely no research into continually taking vaccines over a long period of time....

“‘Experts’ say Americans must change their evil ways”
So does this include life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness?
Uncovid shoted people are going to be very important to the vaxed.

I think the experts need to come to terms with the increasing likelihood that the vast majority of Americans will contract COVID-19 before the pandemic phase is concluded. Natural immunity is probably more robust than the firm we achieve through the so-called vaccines.
My wife and I got the Wuhan after having both shots. So far her case has been more severe than mine, she was very weak for the first two days. My case has been like a head cold with a notable loss of the sense of smell. I can stick my nose in a jar of VapoRub and smell nothing. We are both in our 70s.
So the vaccines did not prevent us from getting the China virus or passing on to another couple (also fully vaccinated). But all four of us appear to be responding to treatment at home.
Agree with the premis and title of article. We need to go back to the founding and original 10 as well as the 10 commandements. Restore our Constitutional Republic NOW or die trying.
I suggest duct tape these experts mouths!
