After Reinstating Mask Mandate, Here's the COVID Death Toll from LA County. Prepare to Be Angry Again.

Okay, enough. Enough now. I don’t mean to marginalize death from COVID, but panic porn peddlers just need to put it away right now because the latest fatality figures from LA County are beyond absurd if you want to make an argument for the new mask mandate. The county recently reimposed the mask mandate, even for the vaccinated, due to the spread of the Delta variant that isn’t more lethal and doesn’t make you sicker. Also, we’re back to the same store-bought masks that Dr. Anthony Fauci admitted does next to nothing when it comes to curbing COVID spread; it’s in his emails. So, what are we even doing here, folks? A mental safety blanket is not a replacement for sound public policy that's based in science. This is science fiction. We’ve known that for months.

On airplanes, which has never been a source of superspread EVER, passengers must still wear masks. Is it grounded in science? No. According to Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg, It’s out of respect. So, no—it’s another science fiction sideshow. It’s meant to keep people on edge, but back to LA County. Only nine people died of COVID over the weekend. Nine—out of a county with a population of a little over 10 million. As of July 18, only four new deaths have been reported.

Reportedly, all the people who died were unvaccinated. Again, for the very people who think we should all be vaccinated, the messaging has been put through the meat grinder again. New mask mandates and LA County isn’t alone, send the message that a) the vaccine doesn’t work, and b) even if you get it, you’ll be locked down forever.

Writer David Bahnsen noted that the only way this madness will end is if people en masse stop following the dictatorial science fiction-based nonsense Fauci and his quack squad have peddled for months. With these figures, there’s no way the vaccinated should be forced into lockdown mode again. Breakthrough infections are rare. We have three vaccines. I don't know what else to say. It's your choice to get vaccinated, and they do work, but the experts are doing a crackerjack job undercutting their own initiatives. Is it on purpose to keep this thing going in order to get this vaccine passport tracking plan going? I don't know. I wouldn't be shocked given the level of rot from the lockdown gestapo.

@DavidBahnsen:

Nine people in LA County died of COVID yesterday, all unvaxxed. Nine people. There are 10 million people in LA County. Ten million. The notion that requiring masks on vaccinated people right now will do anything at all is, of course, utterly ridiculous.

But in fact, if it does anything, it will hurt the cause of more people getting vaccinated, as the only messsge it portrays is, “we will never let you out of this.”

These bureaucratic tyrants are not merely bad at science, and bad at politics, but above all else, they are bad at human nature. And they deserve the fervent civil disobedience and mockery that people of any intelligence and agency will now exhibit.

Two weeks to flatten the curve?

Two years to steal the mid-terms?

Maybe people will catch on to the scam. Maybe not.

“Nine people in LA County died of COVID yesterday”

They did WITH Covid, not necessarily OF Covid.

Masks that aren’t N95 have NEVER WORKED. And rarely worn N95 masks frequently don’t work because they are often worn wrong. The vaccines work, they’re IMMEDIATELY available for THOSE who voluntarily choose to get them.

END ALL MANDATES AND COVID-19 RESTRICTIONS NOW!

Private jet don’t have the same high level air filtration and air sterilization processes that commercial airlines have. Plus there’s no proof that those ‘RATS picked up the virus on the airplane instead of before boarding - they simply were tested once they arrived in D.C. because of who they would be meeting with.

MASKS shouldn’t be mandated on commercial aircraft!

“We”?

I’m not doing anything. Never was.

Well, I was afraid of the coronavirus for maybe a couple days, when they first started hyping scary stories of death cruise ships and corpses piling up a outside of hospitals.

But within a week the people I knew at hospitals were saying - no.. nothing happening at my hospital…

I soon figured out it was just bullshit to try and get Trump - and that’s all it ever was.

‘I soon figured out it was just bullshit to try and get Trump - and that’s all it ever was.’

which of course explains why it is still going on, and why western countries like Australia and New Zealand are about to go back into lockdown mode...

Well I agree. Flew a couple of times, it is annoying as heck. Turned down a trip overseas this week because it essentially required I wear a mask for about 24 hours - 3 flights, 3 airports, mask on the entire time?? Gimme a break.

Supposedly it is scheduled to expire mid September but with all the fear porn coming out of DC who knows they may try to extend it.

Exactly ! If Covid by itself caused death, the death toll would be 33,394,601 - as of JULY 18.

It goes beyond elections. It may help us get Newsom recalled in California. Whatever the motivations were for this mass insanity I think what it is now is sheer enjoyment of the power flex.

I thought the plague of Romneybots in 2012 and 2016 was bad but the Freeper Hypochondriac Hoard is insufferable. The COVID Cowards have gotten religion and they want everyone to be just as damned dumb as they are.

A while back New Zealand locked down because of one case. ONE CASE. Don’t you think that is absolutely insane?

Not !. It is about eternal coronavirus and the power and control it construes. AUS and NZ are proof of concept.
