White House Signals New COVID-19 Measures Coming for People Who Are Unvaccinated
epoch times ^ | 8 September A.D. 2021 | Jack Phillips

Ahead of President Joe Biden’s announcement Thursday about new COVID-19 measures, White House press secretary Jen Psaki said that there may be new measures that will be imposed on unvaccinated people.

“There are six steps the president’s announcing, there will be new components,” Psaki told reporters on Wednesday. “Some of that will be related to access to testing, some will be related to mandates, some will be related to how we ensure kids will be protected in schools.”

When asked about how the new steps would impact Americans’ lives, Psaki said that “it depends on if you’re vaccinated or not.”

Psaki provided few details on what mandates could be imposed on unvaccinated Americans. On Tuesday, she told reporters on Air Force One that the federal government lacks the authority to mandate vaccines for everyone. “There will be new components that sure, will of course impact people across the country, but we’re also all working together to get the virus under control, to return to our normal lives,” Psaki also said, without elaborating, on Wednesday.

Biden, who was scheduled to meet with his COVID-19 advisers on Wednesday, delivered a speech about six months ago saying the United States has “made real progress” against the virus.

Since that date, about 142 million Americans have received COVID-19 vaccines and about 950,000 people are getting vaccinated each day, according to data provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Data released daily by the CDC’s COVID-19 tracker suggests that the United States’ new cases and deaths may have hit a plateau or is on the decline. The seven day-average for cases as of Tuesday was 140,000 and deaths were 1,022, respectively, while as of Sept. 1, the seven-day average for cases was 156,000 and deaths were 1,141, respectively.

The president’s speech on Thursday could make reference to a recent announcement from the heads of several federal health agencies that third doses of the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines, or booster shots, would be provided around Sept. 20. However, the Food and Drug Administration has yet to approve the booster doses. Already, Biden required all federal employees and contractors to get the COVID-19 vaccine or adhere to strict testing and social distancing protocols. He also ordered nursing homes to require their staff to get the vaccine to continue getting Medicare and Medicaid funding.

One of Biden’s top confidants, White House chief of staff Ron Klain, during a CNN interview over the weekend, was reluctant to provide a specific date when the boosters would be made available to the public.

Wait until SS recipients will be required to have the jab in order to receive their monthly benefit check.

To divert attention from Afghanistan, the Biden Admin has issued numerous POs for boxcars and ovens.

“And an increase in medical insurance for unvaxxed”

The PPACA only permits premium variations based on age or tobacco usage.

Plans can have massive co-pays for antibody or other Covid treatments.

The PPACA requires “coverage” for all medically necessary care. That “coverage” can have big holes.

There has to be more to the story.

To which the most correct and repeated reply is "Follow the money" (if you can).

The vaxx mania is partially due to Big Pharma bribing anything that moves.

This approach was perfected way back in the 1950s when Alcoa bribed public officials so they could dump their aluminum waste byproducts in city water supplies. (It was called flouridation and was not a Commie conspiracy, it was a corporate one.)

What about getting sex change operations paid for by Medicaid? That’s surely a constitutional right.

Again, no mention of those who have natural immunity from having had the Wuhan ‘rona. The only thing on the table for discussion is “have you had the vaccine or not?”

These federal control freaks REALLY, REALLY, REALLY want everyone to have a vaccine. The more threatening they get, the more I know that I don’t want it.

I am in my sixties and had it in January 2021. I have the IgG and IgM antibodies to prove it. It was just minor illness, not nearly as bad as the flue that I had in January/February of 2020.

My Ivermectin / COVID-1984 Anecdotal Experience

Forcing me to get one of the terminator vaccines would be an actionable crime.

The federal government has the power the Supreme Court allows it to have.

It’s about reducing the population.

I agree that is the end game--but the elites have no intention of laying their eugenics cards on the table.

Try and make me. Try and lock me down. Try to force me to wear a mask.

Go ahead and F’ING TRY! If that’s the hill you want to die on, so be it!
