MANILA, Philippines — Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte is warning that Filipinos who refuse to get vaccinated against the coronavirus will not be allowed to leave their homes as a safeguard against the more contagious delta variant.

Duterte said in televised remarks Wednesday night that there is no law mandating such a restriction but added he is ready to face lawsuits to keep people who are “throwing viruses left and right” off the streets.

The brash-talking president adds that for people who don’t want to be vaccinated, “well, for all I care, you can die anytime.”

So they actually take away your choice

You dont really have a choice if they imprison you

His real attitude is revealed at the end, and that is the attitude all totalitarians have:

If you dont do it my way you can die.

They pretend to give you a choice but its not a real choice at all. Its coercion and threats and demanding you do something against your will and conscience.

That is exactly the same mentality behind those here in america.

Duterte is a dictator. Has been since day one. None of what he is doing is a surprise.

The real surprise is that he's no worse, really, than our "public servants" here in the US.

So the vaunted vaccination is of no value?

Full disclosure: I took it as soon as it was available. The after-effets were a b!tch.

But I am absolutely unafraid of anybody, vaxxed or unvaxxed.

Spitting, snorting, sniffing, whatever.

Sit next to me.

Breathe on me.

No fear here!

The left yearns of this. They are walking slowly to do just the same.

Here is the problem for the Philippine, which is where I live. The majority of the vaccines are the Chinese brands. As the article says, the Philippines has a very limited supply of vaccines and no where near enough to vaccinate the whole population.

The next issue is that the majority of Filipinos live in the provinces in rural areas which are extremely poor. Supplying vaccines to this population would be a logistic nightmare. And the Philippines does not have the money to vaccinate even a majority of these folks.

As for me, I refuse to take the vaccine for personal reasons. 1, I am type 2 diabetes, 2, I have COPD, 3, I have venal insufficiency, 4, I am 69 years old, and 5, there are too many side effects that have not been fully investigated/studied in order to ensure that if I took the vaccine that I would not be sealing my death warrant.

At this time Duerte hasn’t made this threat an order, but he is unpredictable, so there is that. The worst they could do to me is deport me, (and my U.S. citizen 8 year old son). That would be hard to swallow considering my house and car would have to be left behind, but if that happens, so be it.

Which will INCREASE the number of cases as being sequestered indoors is the perfect way to spread COVID.

It’s known that it is virtually impossible to catch it or spread it outside.

Even early on in this whole debacle, cuomo was shocked to learn that most of the cases in NY outside of those he murdered in nursing homes, were among people who self-quarantined the most.

Of course, that got buried very quickly and not much else was heard about it after the initial reports.

You're on the home stretch. ANY virus or microbe or medicine could set off the end. Even if there were vaccines for everything, just the stress of teaching your immune system for 200 things would likely get you. Living a happy internet life is an option these days, except for the libtards.

That’s why when the VA was pushing me to get the flu shot several years ago I refused it.
