As Dr. Anthony Fauci and President Joe Biden fear monger over the Delta variant of Wuhan coronavirus, falsely calling it "deadlier" than other strains of the virus, the White House is embracing new lockdowns.
During the daily briefing at the White House Tuesday, Press Secretary Jen Psaki was asked if the Biden administration would back new lockdowns should governors choose to implement them. While she argued vaccination rates are likely to prevent the scenario on a national level, she left room for the possibility of new restrictions.
"If the number of cases continues to trend upward, are there any circumstances under which the White House would reimpose some of those restrictions as cases tick up? Or would that be up to the states?" a reporter asked.
"Well, the states are going to have to make evaluations and local communities are going to have to make evaluations about what's in their interests. And, as you know, there are much higher rates of vaccinations in some parts of the country over others, and we certainly support their decisions to implement any measures that they think will help their community be safe," she responded. "But I would remind you, we're at a point where we're almost at 70 percent vaccination rate for, well, for 20...adults 27 and older, but almost for adults 18 and older. So, certainly, we don't see we're on track to implementing new, additional national measures."

On second thought, maybe locking down the white house wouldn’t be such a bad idea. :-}
They are okay with Democrat governors destroying their own cities and states.
Where do they get 70% vaccinated. The reports I see show closer to 50%.
Covid, the magical virus.
It mutations make it stronger rather than weaker like all other viruses.
Report in Oregon said 70% have gotten FIRST shot.
My house is 100% ‘fully’ UNvaccinated. And don’t come a knockin’ either.
Wanna bet the vaxx stats are crap, too...?
You aren’t locking us down, Joe. We gave y’all the benefit of the doubt.
Remember “two weeks to flatten the curve”?
We do.
We won’t do it again.
Pound sand, you Democrat SOB.
that’s what I think. Biden wanted 70% by July 4th which they admitted didn’t happened yet now on July 7, the media is just saying it’s at 70%.
All BS all the time.
"But I would remind you, we're at a point where we're almost at 70 percent vaccination rate for, well, for 20...adults 27 and older, but almost for adults 18 and older. So, certainly, we don't see we're on track to implementing new, additional national measures."
Consider the sources. LOL! And I don’t mean Townhall. Pretty sure they think “Press brief” means ironing underwear.
Since automobile accidents now kill more folks than Covid, they will have to start banning automobiles to “keep people safe”....
I don’t even think it’s 50%.
They knew right off the bat that at least 40% were not gonna take this.
Throw in anyone who already had the bug (and their docs told them NOT to take it, or decided on their own).
Then the rest of us who say the hard over-sell on taking a jab against something that has a 99+% survival rate.
I’d say they’d be lucky if they got an actually 30%.
Hence the threat to start banging on doors.
Frankly, I would not want to be one of those door knockers.
just my $0.02

To anyone who may have had doubts, this shows they are seriously intent on destroying this economy, so they can build an economy from the ground up in “their own image”
Everyone who is suffering and will suffer is simply an egg to be broken in the process of making their despicable, anti-American omelet.
The vaccination rate, persons with at least one shot, for the total US population is about 47-48%, I think.
For over 18, (again, from memory) is about 67% of the pop.
What I find remarkable is that the new infections are coming from both vaxed and unvaxed groups, not a lop-sided number of unvaxed folks.
We were reassured that we could vaccinate our way out of this. That soon, only the heathens among us who are the unvaxed would be the sick ones, threatening to spew virus on the healthy protected ones. But it’s not working out that way. The new infections in Israel show this clearly.
No. Stinking. Way. Period.
Only one reason. They want everyone to get the depopulate jab. Well, except all the 3rd worlders invading our country.
It is under a constant improvement cycle in the lab, new releases sent out whenever the idiots in charge panic about the people not buying their crap anymore.
Hey Assisted Living House...embrace this!
