Florida Gov. DeSantis: People Who Have Been Vaccinated Should ‘Act Immune’
epoch times ^ | 18 April A.D. 2021 | Jack Philips

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said that people who have been vaccinated against the CCP virus should “act immune” and pushed back against comments made by top U.S. health officials.

DeSantis, a Republican, argued that if there is no change in mask requirements or social distancing, then people will view it as useless to get the vaccine.

“My view is if you get a vaccine, the vaccines are effective, you’re immune, and so, act immune,” DeSantis told a crowd in Lakeland, Florida, over the weekend.

“I think the messaging is horrific,” DeSantis continued to say. “I think the messaging should be, ‘Get a vaccine because it’s good for you to do it. It works. You’re not going to have to have to be doing anything abnormal. You can live your life.’ That’s got to be what the message is.”

He also said: “I advocate for (getting vaccinated) but I also can’t square if the vaccines effective, why would you need to be wearing two masks like some of these folks are doing. It doesn’t make sense.” Several public officials, including Dr. Anthony Fauci, have been seen in recent weeks wearing two masks.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Fauci, the public face and head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, have recommended that people wear a mask even after being fully vaccinated against the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, also known as the novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19.

According to the CDC report in April, it recommends Americans who have been fully vaccinated to “keep taking precautions—like wearing a mask, staying 6 feet apart from others, and avoiding crowds and poorly ventilated spaces—in public places until we know more.”

People who are fully vaccinated should not attend large gatherings or visit indoors without a mask with people who are at risk of developing severe symptoms from the CCP virus.

DeSantis, meanwhile, criticized the CDC’s and Food and Drug Administration’s decision to recommend a pause on using the Johnson & Johnson Janssen vaccine following isolated reports of blood clots.

“How they handled the J&J, I think was a huge mistake,” the governor said. “I don’t know the information they have, but if you’re going to do that, you could’ve done that in a way that was not going to cause a lot of people to lose confidence,” he said.

DeSantis said the halt caused Americans to distrust vaccines.

I act as if I’m immune because I’ve was infected and my immune system kicked Corona’s butt and fully recovered without any medical intervention.

At this point, I’d wager my immunity is better than a vaccine. Until data proves otherwise, that’s how I’m going to roll.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, [...] seen in recent weeks wearing two masks.

It seems like "they" are trying to see how far down the rabbit hole we'll follow them...

There is no doubt that your immune system learned more during the infection than any of the vaccines out there. You have the best immunity.

I see now where they are recommending those who already had covid to get vaccinated. This is sheer lunacy.

Me and my wife also. And my dad had it over a year ago and just had his blood checked. AND HE STILL HAD THE ANTIBODIES IN HIS SYSTEM. They are wanting to do booster shots because it’s only good for 6 months. My guess would be we are more immune than others and for longer and against the supposed variant strains coming.

The Fauci mob know that once they allow vaxxed people to go maskless, everyone will stop wearing masks and say they are vaccinated. They’ll never get that horse back in the barn.

And since masks are proven to do more harm than good...it has always been about social control, not infection control.

Well what Ignorance, there is no Immunity with the vaccine, it confers no real benefits except maybe for certain people and even those would be over 75, or more like 80 or85.

Otherwise you can still get the virus and you can still transmit it.

And the vaxx passports will also fail.

Other countries are easy to roll over. The US is like trying to herd cats. Not a great time for the globalists.

Ditto Here! I have also been in 3 "Hot Spots" where people around me, who hadn't been neither vaccinated or previously infected, caught it, but I didn't. One in January 2021 & March 2021.

My monthly antibodies test, when I donate my convulsant plasma, have come back stronger each time.

When are the frightened sheeple going to finally realize that Emperor Fauci isn’t wearing any clothes?

Not it’s only good for six months .... it good for at least 6 months because that’s how far we are out. It’s likely good a lot longer than that

My wife and I (69 and 70) assumed we had the antibodies because she works in a hospital and must have been exposed many times.

Although she is required to wear a mask and wash hands a lot, she can’t social distance or avoid sick people. Meanwhile, neither of us have been at all careful since we felt the whole thing was blown way out of proportion for political reasons.

We only wear masks in places that require it - we have large extended families and social network and we never took precautions that weren’t absolutely required.

However, she just got tested in hopes that having positive antibodies would take some pressure off her (us) to submit to getting vaccinated... and she tested negative!

I think the tests must be unreliable because I just don’t see how we could possibly not have gotten it by now.

Last week I had a discussion with a friend who thought I was dangerously foolish to get on with my life after having survived Covid. She doesn’t believe I am safe because “a lot of people get it repeatedly”.
