CHICAGO (CBS) — Mayor Lori Lightfoot on Tuesday warned that the city might be forced to reinstate some COVID-19 restrictions if more people don’t get vaccinated against COVID-19, as the highly contagious delta variant continues to spread nationwide.

I don’t want a ‘vaccination’ card.

I want an ‘immunized’ or ‘naturally immunized’ card.

The commies see the Delta variant as the new savior to their con job. I for one am convinced that the Texas variant is more contagious to Dims than conservatives 😁

Chicago has had more than a year to build healthcare facilities and train caregivers to deal with any “surge” of the China Virus.

If there is any city which has not, it can only be concluded that the government there wants these lockdowns to continue for its own (most likely corrupt) purposes.

Notice the hard-core Marxists are locking down first as they are trying to get the lock down ball rolling by ostensibly making it politically easier for other city and states to follow.

The variants were planned a year ago so the Progressive crap holes should be well prepared for the surge of fake positive cases.

If I wasn’t so skeptical, I would say the Chicago Teachers Union has a hand in this also. School is starting soon and the teachers don’t want to work for their pay.
