Outdoors, masked and distanced while vaxxed

Vincent J. Curtis

12 Nov 21.

If you want to know why there are anti-vax protests and why actual scientists think the doctors running the pandemic measures are incompetent, just look at the front page of the November 12 Spectator, and pages A4 and A8.  You will find pictures of perfectly healthy young people, outdoors, socially distanced - and masked.  Undoubtedly, they’re fully vaccinated too.  Do the doctors running pandemic measures have confidence in any of their measures, or not? Wearing belt and suspenders to keep your pants up is one thing, but ostentatiously adding athletic tape and bungie cord for good measure is a little over the top, and calls into question a few things.

Questions like, do the vaccines work, or not?  They were supposed to save us from another wave of the pandemic, but that didn’t work.  Herd immunity was supposed to happen at 70, er, 80, er, 90 percent, but even 100 percent isn’t going to achieve it. Breakthrough infections are occurring with alarming regularity.  The blame for this is laid on the unvaccinated, the vast majority of whom aren’t carrying the virus.  If unvaccinated people are dangerous to the vaccinated, then what was the point of vaccination again?

Nevertheless, masks are mandated - the talisman that didn’t stop waves two or three.  Wearing masks outdoors was once considered over the top, but, obviously, not any more.  Social distancing while outdoors?  Not good enough, mask up!

When is this incompetence and ridiculous shows of compliance going to end?
