Fauci Says: "There’s no safety in returning to COVID-19 lockdowns"
New York Post ^ | 12/10/2021 | Jonathan Tobin

Posted on 12/11/2021 6:33:35 AM PST by SeekAndFind

The initial reaction from Dr. Anthony Fauci to the emergence of a new strain of the coronavirus pandemic elicited a collective scream of frustration.

When ABC News’ ­George Stephanopoulos asked him whether the Omicron version of COVID would prompt a return to devastating lockdowns, President Biden’s chief medical adviser kept his options open, saying, “It’s really too early to say.”

Fortunately, within a day, the administration changed its tune. When Biden spoke about the Omicron variant on Monday, the president said that when he unveils a new “detailed strategy” for dealing with the disease, it will focus on vaccinations, boosters and testing and “not shutdowns or lockdowns.”

He’d better keep his word about that, and make sure fearmonger-in-chief Fauci remembers it. The American people are weary from more than 20 months of heavy-handed and often ineffective measures that were supposed to keep them safe. The shutting down of ordinary life and commerce, as well as the schools, didn’t curtail the death toll — which on Biden’s watch has exceeded that of Trump — or prevent the virus from spreading and mutating.

The first duty of any government is to protect its citizens, but you don’t have to be a libertarian absolutist to have noticed that COVID has been a gift that keeps on giving when it comes to the desire of federal, state and local governments to seize more power to deal with an emergency that never seems to end.

Ok folks, I’d like your opinion on this... would it be a better policy if we applied Ron DeSantis’ approach to combatting Covid in Florida nationwide?

If you’re gonna have a lockdown or a quarantine, I’d rather have everyone everywhere locked down. That way the vaxxed won’t be out there unmasked and spreading the virus they carry to others.

Faux-chi is a menace to the public. He should be in prison for mass murder.

Mask mandates are ineffective in preventing the spread of COVID-19. It spreads indoors during the summer in Florida because it's so hot outside and in the North, same thing during winter due to the cold.

Vaccines reduce hospitalizations and ultimately, deaths.

It’s so obvious this is all about control and not health.

Shut up and go away, you evil little garden gnome.

Bottom line, this particular policy of Fauci and Biden are right?

Which means this weekend he will announce we need more lockdowns. The idiot is as predictable as the sun coming up.

"New" sounds kind of "old". When all you have is a vaccine that is the equivalent of a crappy Harbor Freight cheap-ass hammer, every variant looks like a nail.

Yeah, a gift our overlords gave us.

Meanwhile, who needs lockdowns once our digital social credit apps (and cbdc-only central bank accounts) are operative?

Just a portal for regular jab updates and we’re under control as long as we are even kicking.
