Caldara: Move over granny; press, politicians jump vaccine line
Page Two Complete Colorado ^ | 27 Jan 2021 | Jon Caldara

My parents are in their upper 80s and since the beginning of this pandemic have been wisely isolated in their home, a self-imposed house arrest. That’s close to a year now.

Zoom calls with their children and particularly their grandchildren have been a poor substitute for the contact they need. My kids have missed bonding with them, a loss which could ripple through their lives as the years go on.

My folks have gone without the greatest joy of their lives, time with family. And the caretakers they need to come to their home have been severely limited. If family shouldn’t visit them then certainly strangers shouldn’t. Their quality of life has suffered.

As I write this neither of my parents have been able to get a COVID vaccine. And not for lack for constantly trying.

My son who has Down syndrome and an underlying heart condition — he required open heart surgery at 3 weeks old — hasn’t received a vaccine.

So, who has had access to a vaccine? Our state legislators. Yep. State legislators can jump in front of the most vulnerable people in the state including the elderly and handicapped.

So much for a “citizen” legislature. All people are equal. But some are more equal than others.

Without politicians and the Press telling us what to think, say and do, what would become of us? O mercy! They must be saved even if it costs every granny and grandpa everywhere!

Both Hank Arron and Larry King died days after receiving the mRNA COVID Vaccine. All previous attempts at mRNA vaccines have FAILED IN ANIMAL TRIALS. The animals acquired an extreme sensitivity to subsequent exposure to similar wild viruses. The current COVID Vaccines SKIPPED ANIMAL TRIALS.

And then there’s loony lib Juan Williams at Fox News, slamming Trump continuously for his ‘slow response’ to the virus, and no-doubt skeptical of the efficacy of the vaccine that first couldn’t possibly be developed in such a short time. 🙄

This idiot had the temerity to casually discuss on-air receiving his first injection a month after he CONTRACTED THE VIRUS and recovered.

Jackasses, all of ‘em... 🤬

Our Guv is also letting teachers jump the line, whether they are refusing to work or not. Meanwhile, we under 70 seniors can't even get in line.

Gee, who could've predicted the Dems would handle the vaccine as just another kind spoils they can plunder?

Please provide a source for your assertion about lack of animal testing. It’s BS. I’m in one of the trials stage 3 testing, they explained the prior phases and tests. It definitely included animal testing, and was successful there.
