Rant #2,704: I Can't Stand Up For Falling Down



We are now more than a year into the pandemic, and we have apparently been taking a step backward for the past few weeks in eradicating this thing.
 
We have the delta variant to deal with now, and the appearance of this variant, which came from India, is putting a kibosh on so many reopening plans now.
 
New York City proudly proclaims it is “Now” York City, with all the fanfare and glitz back shining on the Big Apple, with a centerpiece being that it plans to hold an open-air concert in Central Park in a few weeks that might turn out to be the biggest virus spreader in history if it is actually held.
 
Yes, only “vaccinated” people are allowed to attend, but now we are being told that even vaccinated people can spread the delta virus … and you just know that people who have not received the shot(s) will attend this thing too …
 
And what exactly does “vaccinated” mean in the context of what we are talking about?
 
This “vaccine” does not prevent people from getting the virus, so it is only an inoculation, not a vaccine, like we have for measles and polio.
 
And we have three “vaccines” to choose from, a one-shot and two two-shot choices.
 
Well, just doing the math—and doing “the science” too—which shots do you think are most effective?
 
“A-one-a, and a-two-a?
 
I know, I sound like Lawrence Welk used to sound in counting down a song on his TV show, but if you only have a grade school education, you know that two is at the very least "greater" than one, so why do people think that they are as fully protected with the one shot as with the two?
 
Have people lost the ability to think?
 
Yes they have, because they follow CDC and governmental edicts to the letter, which makes us all into sheep waiting for slaughter, don’t you think?
 
And why the one-dose shot has not been called out as the real game changer that it is—people getting this one shot and thinking that they are protected when they are not, and they are also spreading the virus, too, since they are not protected—is beyond me, but maybe it isn’t—
 
It all has to do with the other virus we are fighting, that of the green stuff, which dollars and cents tell us is a bit more important than “the science” in determining what is right and what is wrong in how we are handling this virus.
 
Proof in the pudding is that we are never told how many people have received the two two-dose shots and how many people received the one-dose shot. There has never been any breakdown, and I believe that is the missing ingredient here in finding out why the delta variant is hampering us so.
 
We have been told that 50 percent of American adults have received the “vaccine,” but if we knew how many actually received the one-dose shot and are not as protected, or not protected at all, against the virus, we would probably find that the number of adults who received the vaccine—the real vaccine in the context we are talking about—is probably less than 40 percent—
 
And VOILA! Now we know why this delta variant is spreading like wildfire, and it has little or nothing to do with those who haven’t gotten any shot, it has to do with those who received the one-dose shot, think they are protected, and since they aren’t, are the super spreaders of this thing.
 
My son attended a birthday party thrown by the parents of one of his friends on Saturday, a 25th birthday party, and he gladly attended … I mean, he hasn’t been to anything like this since the pandemic began, so he was anxious to get out of the house and do something fun like this.
 
I took him to the party, nd told him that to be on the safe side, he should wear his mask, and only take it off if he was swimming—it was a pool party—or eating.
 
I dropped him off there, and several hours later, I came to pick him up.
 
As I have done since day one of this thing—vaccine or no vaccine—I wore my mask as I entered the backyard where the bash was being held.
 
Even though there were about 100 people there, not a single person was wearing a mask.
 
I was the only person wearing one.
 
I found my son, and he wasn’t wearing one either.
 
“Nobody is wearing one,” he replied when I asked him about his mask.
 
Cake was served, and he sat down to eat, without his mask on, of course.
 
I sat there with my mask on.
 
One of the people he knows came up to me and greeted me, but than asked, “What is your vaccine status? You haven’t gotten your shot yet. You know, the only way to get rid of the variant is to get vaccinated.”
 
I then politely told this person—who I knew meant well with what he said—that I, in fact, received my shots in April, and that I simply wear the mask because it is my choice to do so.
 
He said “OK,” and walked away.
 
Yes, we are almost in a military state right now, and I thought I would have to show him “my papers” in order to convince him that even though I wore a mask, I was fully inoculated.
 
That is where it stands now … and I hope that this hundred-person get together doesn’t become a super spreader too.
 
How many of these “vaccinated” people actually only got the one dose?
 
Are we going to start wearing stars on our sleeves to show that we were fully vaccinated, one for the one dose and two for the two dose?
 
Yes, Hitler is laughing his butt off in hell right now.
