This past weekend, coronavirus cases in Michigan have once again seen a spike, the highest in the nation. Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer used this as the reasoning behind her request to the White House for more supplies for vaccinations – a request that was ultimately denied.
Later on, at a White House briefing, U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Rochelle Walensky claimed that the answer to help the people of Michigan was not vaccines, but instead another lockdown.
“We know that if vaccines go in arms today, we will not see an effect of those vaccines — depending on the vaccine — for somewhere between two and six weeks. So when you have an acute situation, an extraordinary number of cases like we have in Michigan, the answer is not necessarily to give vaccines,”
“The answer to that is to really close things down, to go back to our basics. To go back to our basics, to go back to where we were last spring, last summer. and to shut things down. To flatten the curve. To decrease contact with one another,”
In a separate interview with CBS, Walesnky claimed “if we try to vaccinate our way out of what is happening in Michigan we would be disappointed that it took so long for the vaccine to work.”

Why, they haven’t worked yet.
What’s that definition of insanity...doing the same thing over and over?
Last year we were told that a 15 day lock-down would solve the problem.
I dare the Democrats to go ahead with a lockdown (in Michigan or wherever it happens in the U.S.) because they COMPLETELY owns it. I think Joe Biden’s handlers know the deal so they are not going to walk into that trap, that is my suspicion.
Nuts!
Out of one side of their mouth they say the 'vaccine' won't prevent you from becoming infected, nor keep you from infecting others, but it will supposedly help suppress the 'severity' of Covid-19 if you get it.
Out of the other side of their mouth they initially said you won't be protected from infection for 2 weeks, and as that is proven false they are saying : for somewhere between two and six weeks."
They will lie about anything to anyone without hiding their lies.
Yes! Lockdown the sheep of Michigan! Close everything - stores, restaurants, churches, sporting events - arrest anyone who dares come out of their house.
Bow down to Governor Witless and obey without question.
And they can’t understand why no one trusts their direction. Enough!
Give me a break!
Hard no
It has little to do with covid and all to do with destroying capitalism so that Marxism is palatable.
Who is “we”? It’s not me.
Eat a bag of sausages
Two weeks to slow the spread.
That beotch can KMA. Whitmer can too. My butt has two cheeks.
Agree.
I guess they figure the masses are sufficiently dumbed down, now, to usher in their plan.
😡🙃
Those that fail to learn history, and all...
Wait, I though old Joe was gonna get rid of the China virus... like a miracle or something.
