Dr. Anthony Fauci just spilled the beans: contrary to the implicit promise numerous politicians made that COVID-19 restrictions would only last until theres an effective vaccine, Fauci says the arrival of a vaccine wont mean life will return to normal, perhaps for more than a year.
If youre talking about getting back to a degree of normality which resembles where we were prior to COVID, its going to be well into 2021, maybe even towards the end of 2021, said the director of National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases on Friday.
A safe and effective vaccine produced this quickly would be a stunning scientific accomplishment that could save thousands of lives. But Fauci warned that widespread distribution and getting the majority, or more, of the population vaccinated and protected wont happen until perhaps the end 2021, and therefore means we cannot be free from oppressive lockdown measures until at least that point.
Aside from Fauci being a reliable harbinger for politicians moving the COVID-19 goal posts, we have three very good reasons to doubt the understanding promoted by politicians so far about returning to normal when a vaccine is deployed: 1) politicians already moved the goalposts far away from flatten the curve and 15 days to slow the spread and thus cant be trusted 2) theyve ignored their promise of reopening if effective treatments were found, and 3) the newly discovered phenomenon of COVID-19 reinfection gives panic-pushers an excuse to keep lockdown measures until some new target of vaccine efficacy or compliance is met.
In short, we have every reason to believe Fauci might even be understating the persistence of lockdown measures and almost no reason to believe previous political promises.

Well add to all that the air quality in WA is unhealthy, at least where I live due to all the smoke from fires.
Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt and hysteria. Too bad about the indoor theater business and Hollyweird, Georgi.
One word: WRONG
Hey thanks man :)
I have too much more complaining to do to die yet :)
Let us know how you make out.
I feel your pain, OSB and YP are killing me at work. Makes me sick looking at what I paid in April vs today. In a couple weeks hopefully well see the light at the end of the tunnel!
Thanks man I’m already good but I’ll folks know about the test when I get it.
I DID worry about my mom catching this.
It just seemed different than anything I’ve ever had and I do not know if she would have survived the worst of it.
She’s 87.
We had to protect the elderly and the sick. That’s all we had to do.
Lumber prices have gone overboard.
Polyp gone, mouth back in gear.
Anyone else get sick around you?
Did you take anything for it?
It’s starting to look to me like Fauci is now actually trying to get fired.
I doubt Trump will go there before the election. But he’ll be kicked to the curb shortly afterwards.
A friend of mine bought a house in Idaho and even put $5,000 down (it is in a new construction neighborhood and had not been started.
Well, I have never bought a hose this way, so I don’t know how they were able to do this, but they bumped the price by $100,000. It looks like they are going to walk away from the $5k and find an existing home on the market. First priority is to sell their Bonney Lake house, which would have gone fast if not for the antifa arson fires.
There is only one god, Science, and Anthony Fauci is his prophet.
I am so happy to hear that you made it through the valley of the shadow of death. May God continue to bless you.
“Fauci (Kurtz) is acting without any restraint! Your job is seek him out and terminate his position!!”
“Terminate the Doctor?”
“Terminate with extreme prejudice!”
It's not about health, it's about control.Bring Out Your Dead
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the Bring Out Your Dead ping list (formerly the Ebola ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
The false positive rate was 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the Bring Out Your Dead threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
If a quarantine saves just one child's or one old farts life, it's worth it.
“now that the Left has created a way to effectively control peoples movements and actions”
I don’t think they have. The government restrictions will fade away as the younger public massively disregards them.
Just me. And I am self-quarantining until I feel strong enough to get the test and get the results.
Oddly enough one Advil at a time maybe every five or six hours helped a bit.
It was hard to keep anything down so if there was no point in taking much.
I started taking Pepto-Bismol on the second day and it drastically reduced my stomach pain.
Not to be gross but though I vomited mmore than I ever have, there was no issue with the other end :-)
