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.

I visited the (very tiny) local post office a couple of months ago—it was hilarious.

It was the _only_ building within ten miles that required a mask.

The poor lady that worked there must have gotten sick and tired of everybody rolling their eyes at her. :-)

Does anyone have the meme of the Laugh-In “verrry interesting” Nazi in helmet scene? (played by Arte Johnson).

This president is a complete imbicile! He is moving toward what is going on in Australia. They are moving toward a socialist type maneuver like blocking those who are not vaccinated from shopping at food markets and the like. Biden is stupid enough to follow suit. He does not realize what that would cause.

I'm with you. I've absolutely had with strangers telling me I have to obey them so they will feel better. I won't do it! I tell 'em: "You, a stranger, can no more force me to wear a mask than I can force you to stop acting like a bully ... and not a very good bully at that!" Sometimes I add the Old Cowboy's mantra: "Fool me once, shame on me. Fool me twice, f*ck you!"

I can't believe that among in a nation of a third of a billion people there isn't someone, somewhere with the resources, the skills and the courage to put an end to this sh*t! There simply must be ... and I expect wherever that person(s) is, they've had just about enough of this sh*t as I have!

Not sure money explains all.

They really, really want 100% of the population to get the shot and they will stop at nothing to reach that goal.

The evidence is mounting that the shots are not as effective long term as expected and there are negative side effects.

There has to be more to the equation

They for sure want the vax passport, that will mutate into the eternal social credit score.

They are evil though, and not stupid. The easy way to ease into that will be:

1) show proof of vaccination for domestic air travel
2) no more free or subsidized covid testing, so costs will go through the roof, but a recent negative test will be allowed in lieu of vax passport for some limited situations (possibly employment related)
3) coercion of corporations regulated by the federal government to mandate vax verification for employees and customers. Banking, insurance, brokerages come to mind.

Net effect will be an attempt to make the costs of noncompliance unbearable.

They certainly do not want the humiliation of a healthy control group.

People will figure out a way around it. Non vaxed farmers exchanges will pop up. Those who do have a vax card (forged or legit) will resell the food purchased from vaxed only stores.
