Becerra: Fully Vaccinated Offices Should Wear Masks Because We ‘Want You to Be as Safe as Possible’
Breitbart ^ | 5/10/21 | IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 05/10/2021 8:12:33 PM PDT by conservative98

On Monday’s broadcast of CNN’s “New Day,” HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra stated that people in offices where everyone has been vaccinated should wear masks because while if you’re vaccinated, you’re “obviously far safer. We still want you to be as safe as possible.” And “to be safe, you could end up being a carrier and not know it and if somebody hasn’t been vaccinated or doesn’t wear a mask, guess what, there’s still that potential of getting COVID.”

Co-host John Berman asked, “For people who are all vaccinated, if you work in a vaccinated workplace, there’s still a mask mandate. Who are you protecting if everyone’s vaccinated by wearing a mask?”

Becerra responded, “So, we’re trying to make sure that the guidance that is put out there by the federal government is one that really focuses on safety. We can’t mandate people do certain things, but we can certainly give them the best advice possible. And the guidance that the federal government has put out is for your safety. Wearing a mask, getting vaccinated, crucial, if you haven’t done either — or if you’re not doing either one of those two, you’re in real trouble. But if you’ve been vaccinated, you’re obviously far safer. We still want you to be as safe as possible. That’s why the indoor policy should still be masking. But clearly, if you’ve been vaccinated fully and you’re with folks who are also vaccinated, John, the risk does diminish dramatically. But, again, to be safe, you could end up being a carrier and not know it and if somebody hasn’t been vaccinated or doesn’t wear a mask, guess what, there’s still that potential of getting COVID.”

Can anyone on this thread provide the rational for a policy that 80+% will reject ?

I can not.

They can’t realistically string this out until elections. It will not demonstrate ‘power over the people’....just the opposite.

Is this whole thing getting really really stupid, or is it just me?

I was just reading about a study where wearing a mask for prolonged periods of time sets you up for lung cancer.

Breathing in your toxins all day, CO2?, could not possibly be good for you. I see people running with them on. Babies and toddlers. Are you mad?

If the Bidet administration wanted Americans “safe” they would seal the borders from foreign invaders.

Not even sure Jen Psaki could quite circle back to THAT. :::total facepalm:::

And question two is, maybe there should be laws that allow them to be kept out of the building?”

And laws forbidding them from walking in public!

If you have to wear a mask after getting the so called “vaccine” then it’s not a vaccine is it? If Fedgov mandates masks post “just a safe and effective jab”, why would people rush to face diapers especially since the crap is injectable unproven trial garbage.

There was never full confidence in any particular year’s iteration of the Influenza vaccine. Nobody who received the vaccine ever felt bullet proof against contracting Influenza because they’d been vaccinated against it. The reason for this is that the Inflenza virus mutates constantly and thus always remains a moving target. One year the vaccine more or less hits the target squarely, the next it deals it a glancing blow, and the next, misses it entirely. In this way, any Coronavirus germ is the same as any Influenza germ. Constantly mutating. That being so, your statement “There is no confidence in this vaccine.” is simultaneously true, and also somewhat besides the point.

Vaccines against Smallpox and Measles, by comparison, and for that matter Polio too, were developed without that built-in disadvantage. The respective virions that cause those three diseases never mutate. Therefore, there was no moving target, year after year. Effectiveness was darned near 100 percent and remained that high as time passed so all three diseases were soon more or less totally extirpated from life in all first world countries.

The thing is...the vaccines for those diseases never brought serious side effects or death at anything like the rates at which the mRNA gene manipulation injections are currently doing. And those diseases were far more grave and frightening than COVID-19.

So, back in the day, people were asked to receive a vaccine that was far less potentially dangerous to their health and lives but with a realistic expectation of 100% effectiveness against a disease that was far more terrifying disease than COVID-19, with a basic promise of immunity for life.

By contrast, now, people are on the verge of being forced to receive an injection or series of injections that is far more potentially dangerous to their health and very lives, with a “who the hell knows” percent effectiveness that is sure to vary year to year against a disease that is a mewling kitten in comparison to the roaring tigers that were Smallpox, Measles and Polio, with no satisfactory promise of any reliable immunity to anyone for any period of time at all!

And they wonder what is causing people to [air quotes] hesitate?

Compared to the products brought to us by the likes of Jonas Salk and his ilk, Pfizer and ModeRNA’s highly-touted mRNA injections are a collective pig-in-a-poke.

Leftists like Becerra have this thing for “masks”. Maybe he is a big fan of Antifa and BLM. They wear masks all the time, esp. at “mainly peaceful protests”.

He’s a Marxist shit. Never trust him for anything.

The real translation is “How the hell do you think we’re going to win the mid terms if we can’t keep this farce rolling until November!”. At least that how I translate it.
