WH slams GOP governors who resist
'door-to-door' vaccine effort

Original Article

Posted By: Ribicon, 7/9/2021 2:36:33 PM

The White House on Friday said GOP governors who rejected President Biden’s door-to-door vaccine effort are fueling attitudes that are “literally killing people.” White House press secretary Jen Psaki also said the governors had mischaracterized the initiative. “The failure to provide the accurate public health information, including the efficacy of vaccines and the accessibility of them to people across the country—including South Carolina—is literally killing people, so maybe they should consider that,” she said. Ms. Psaki was responding to South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster, who directed state health officials to thwart door-to-door tactics and said “pressuring” people to get vaccinated

Comments:

Here's where county sheriffs should stand up and be counted. Also, couldn't we just give Pfizer the money for the vaccines without having to use them, or even produce them? That would be even more profitable for them, a win-win as we Americans like to say.

n. Power or capacity to produce a desired effect; effectiveness We can see that vaccines are quite dangerous. What I'm not sure of is what is the desired effect the dangerous politicians are after.

I’m pretty sure everyone who was vaccinated had to I’d themselves. The states have the records. Match them against the census records to know who has decided not to vaccinate. To me it looks like a fed control exercise to get ready for the next made up Crisis to spring on us.

Aren't the unending TV commercials bad enough? If people have not heard about the availability of free Covid shots from every other TV commercial trying to guilt them into getting the shot, they either don't care or already had the shot. Bottom line is going door to door will do nothing but intimidate some people and annoy others. Either way, this door to door campaign, regardless of who does it, is ill advised and unnecessary.

As long as this administration continues importing illegal alien carriers of Covid19 into American communities, and deliberately putting our own citizens at risk, we can all be excused for taking their supposed "concern" for us with a grain of salt. Joe invited illegal aliens to come to the US "to be heard" on his first day in office. Sadly, he doesn't give a damn about listening to Americans. It's appalling to watch this administration set up adults for door to door badgering. This administration has forgotten who works for whom. No wonder trust in our government is eroding.

Here's the key thing about this door-to-door BS: they WANT to create an incident. They WANT some health department flunky to be seriously assaulted - or even better, killed - by an otherwise law-abiding homeowner. That would be all that they and their media toadies would need to create a national narrative condemning the "anti-vaxxists" as dangerous insurrectionists who must be forced into compliance for the sake of the "larger public good". If they come to your place, resist resolutely but passively. Keep your gun handy, sure, but don't give them what they're REALLY looking for.

That's my governor! We stand with you, Sir, and thank you for the directive! That crisis other posters speak of can serve more than one narrative. We all know the WH is full of liars. Get this: “This is not federal employees going door to door,” Ms. Psaki said. “This is grassroots volunteers, this is members of the clergy, these are volunteers who believe that people across the country, especially in low-vaccinated areas, should have accurate information.” Who cares what a bunch of volunteers believe? If they put their lives on the line for their beliefs and they get their noble behinds kicked a time or two, well. . . they should have had more accurate information.

Why no commercials with this info? https://www.openvaers.com/covid-data/mortality Dept of Health and Human Services' Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, (VAERS) shows that docs have reported over 9,000 deaths due to the this vaccine. That should be widely known. Typical numbers of deaths from vaccines are in the 100-200 range. Why is this shot 50-90 times more likely to kill you than other vaccinations? Why is that info being covered up?

several months ago i looked up the laboratory procedure for the PCR test used to detect Covid19. It is quite complex mixing of testing solutions I also understand that any testing over 27 cycles will begin to detect "dead" virus and report them as positive and most testing was using over 30 cycles. Considering testing hundreds or thousands of samples in a short period along with over sampling errors are probable. IMO the system was overwhelmed and likely 1 sigma or 68% or more positive results were due to mistakes and over testing and we have been given erroneous data BTW I have read that after the election the the numeber of testing cycles was reduced (?) BTW2 - Disney World has reopened and it is time for "Doc" Fauci to reunite with Snow White and the other 6 dwarfs.

I was thinking I might eventually get vaccinated, but this big push is making me suspicious. There's something about someone telling me I have to do something or it is my "duty" to do something that puts my back up. I've decided I won't get vaccinated until I see people dropping dead in the streets.

Who in their right mind would open the door to someone claiming to be From the Government and They're There to Help, holding a syringe and clipboard? Allow them into your house or apartment? Roll up your sleeve or expose any part of your body to a stranger? Who? Who would do this? If you've ever had the VNA in, you know how many documents have to be signed and agreed upon, and you always know who's coming over and when. Once upon a time, a pesky pair of magazine "sales-youths" were persuaded to leave my doorway when i appeared with my 125 pound German Shepherd. No one is coming in my house unless i or we invite the person in. No-one should accept this extremely unsafe proposition, and certainly not if we treasure our Liberty.

#21 reminds us of a very important fact. The COVID testing during Trump's tenure was high repetition, guaranteed to create false positives and cause the cases™ to skyrocket. Once Zhoa got in office, this was changed to create the impression that the lib policies were working. This is the most bizarre national event I have been through in my life. And I don't think it's over yet.

The administration of Democratic Gov. Tom Wolf of Pennsylvania has ordered counties not to comply with a Republican state senator’s request for voting data to be used in an audit of the 2020 election. The Pennsylvania Department of State said in a two-page directive that the request by state Sen. Doug Mastriano of Franklin County, an ally of former President Donald Trump, “jeopardizes the security and integrity” of the counties’ voting systems. " Such access by third parties undermines chain of custody requirements and strict access limitations necessary to prevent both intentional and inadvertent tampering with electronic voting systems,” the department said.

Eugene “Gen Gen” McClaurin, 28, was accused of shooting two federal agents and a local cop as they drove in an unmarked police vehicle on Chicago’s South Side early Wednesday. After his arrest, McClaurin told investigators he followed the officers because he thought they were part of an opposing gang, the indictment states.
