Across the US, millions of Americans are planning on scaled-back Thanksgiving dinners, with only members of their immediate family “bubbles” invited. Mayors of some of America’s large cities, along with the governors of California, Oregon and Washington State, have asked residents to limit travel over the holidays.
As angst about the spoiled Thanksgiving holiday simmers, Dr. Anthony Fauci acknowledged Sunday during an appearance on CNN’s “State of the Union” that American families should probably prepare to skip Christmas dinner, too.
While Dr. Fauci has repeatedly praised Pfizer and Moderna, and assured the American public that the FDA’s first vaccine emergency-use authorization could be handed down within days, he cautioned during Sunday’s interview that people should continue to wear masks and observe social distancing even after they’ve been vaccinated.
It’s just the latest unsettling hint that social distancing requirements could be here to stay.
“I would recommend to people to not abandon all public health measures just because you’ve been vaccinated,” Fauci said during an appearance on CNN’s State of the Union. “Because even though for the general population it might be 90% to 95% effective, you don’t necessarily know for you how effective it is.”
Later in the interview, Dr. Fauci agreed, with some trepidation, with Jake Tapper’s assessment that Christmas “is probably not going to be possible.”
Dr. Fauci responded that people “can’t abandon fundamental public health measures” until the vaccine has been somewhat widely distributed. That might not be until the second or third quarter of next year.
Our COVID Police State Wants To Take Thanksgiving And Christmas Away From You Too
COVID police state is back for more. As I have been documenting over the last several days, new lockdowns are being instituted all over the country right now, and even our most cherished holidays are being targeted.Let me start by discussing an interview that CNN’s Jake Tapper just conducted with Anthony Fauci. Most Americans had assumed that once a vaccine was widely distributed that we wouldn’t need masks or social distancing anymore.
JAKE TAPPER SAID, “ONCE SOMEBODY HAS BEEN IMMUNIZED … ONCE THE PROCESS IS COMPLETE, DOES THAT MEAN THEY CAN TAKE OFF THEIR MASK, DON’T HAVE TO SOCIAL DISTANCE, AND GO ABOUT THEIR LIVES AS BEFORE?”
FAUCI SAID, “I WOULD RECOMMEND THAT IS NOT THE CASE. I WOULD RECOMMEND YOU HAVE AN ADDED AREA OF PROTECTION. OBVIOUSLY, WITH 90 PLUS PERCENT EFFECTIVE VACCINE, YOU COULD FEEL MUCH MORE CONFIDENT, BUT I WOULD RECOMMEND TO PEOPLE TO NOT ABANDON ALL PUBLIC HEALTH MEASURES JUST BECAUSE YOU’VE BEEN VACCINATED.”
As I have repeatedly warned my readers, they intend to change the way that we live permanently.
During that same interview, they were discussing a timeline for vaccine distribution, and Tapper blurted this out: “Christmas is probably not gonna be possible.”
In other words, Americans should not plan to have a normal Christmas this year because we are going to be expected to stay home, wear masks and keep members of our extended family away.
Of course Thanksgiving is a lot closer than Christmas, and our COVID overlords are telling us that we can’t have a normal Thanksgiving either. For example, this is what the head of the CDC is saying…
U.S. CENTERS FOR DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION DIRECTOR ROBERT REDFIELD HELD A CALL WITH THE NATION’S GOVERNORS ON TUESDAY. CNN OBTAINED AUDIO OF THE CHAT, IN WHICH REDFIELD SAID: “WHAT WE’RE SEEING AS THE INCREASING THREAT RIGHT NOW IS ACTUALLY ACQUISITION OF INFECTION THROUGH SMALL HOUSEHOLD GATHERINGS… PARTICULARLY WITH THANKSGIVING COMING UP, WE THINK IT’S REALLY IMPORTANT TO STRESS THE VIGILANCE OF THESE CONTINUED MITIGATION STEPS IN THE HOUSEHOLD SETTING.”
Needless to say, many of our top politicians are going to fall right in line with the directives that our “health authorities” have issued. For example, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot has issued new restrictions for the city of Chicago which begin on Monday…
THE ORDER, WHICH BEGINS MONDAY, EXTENDS THROUGH THANKSGIVING FESTIVITIES. RESIDENTS ARE “STRONGLY ADVISED” TO NOT HAVE GUESTS IN THEIR HOMES OUTSIDE OF ESSENTIAL WORKERS — EVEN FAMILY AND CLOSE FRIENDS.
At least Lightfoot’s order is not as draconian as the mandate that California Governor Gavin Newsom has ordered all Californians to follow this Thanksgiving.
If you can believe it, Newsom has decided to limit Thanksgiving to a two hour “outdoor event”…
GOVERNOR GAVIN NEWSOM’S ‘RIDICULOUSLY UNENFORCEABLE’ THANKSGIVING CRACKDOWN THAT BANS SINGING AND SHOUTING AND LIMITS THE HOLIDAY TO A TWO-HOUR OUTDOOR EVENT.
‘IF MY AUNT COMES OVER, CAN I THROW HER A SLICE OF TURKEY FROM THE WINDOW?’ MOCKED ACTOR ROB SCHNEIDER AS HE BLASTED THE ‘EMPEROR NEWSOM’.
The good news is that the American people are sick and tired of having their rights taken away and are starting to push back against absurd restrictions such as these.
The bad news is that the new lockdowns that are being instituted all over the U.S. will inevitably crash our economy again.
