Descending in fascism? Hey, if that's what it takes

RE: Omicron the scariest COVID yet. Spectator editorial 12 July 22.

“COVID isn’t about us....[it’s] never about just us.  They’re always about other people.”  “It’s not just seniors who suffer disproportionately.”  “For other people, COVID is still scary.”  “All of us need to play a role in combatting COVID because everyone is affected when anyone’s infected and vulnerable people are affected the most.”  ”We must therefore redouble our efforts…Redoubling our effects means protecting ourselves first and vaccinations remains an essential tool in the arsenal.  That means laying plans for a fourth shot.”  Mussolini couldn’t have put the argument more clearly.

Here’s the rub: the vaccines don’t work.  In fact, the evidence may show that they are counter-productive, leaving multi-vaccinated people more vulnerable than the unvaccinated at this stage.

Omicron was wildly contagious but had milder symptoms.  Yet, more people died under Omicron than under the alpha and delta variants?  Alpha and delta were faced without vaccines.  When Omicron came along, more than three quarters of the population were double vaxxed.  Finding double vaccination didn’t stop the Omicron wave, a third dose was called for, and it proved a failure.  We are now discovering excess deaths in alarming numbers in young and middle-aged people – people who didn’t need vaccination to combat COVID themselves but got vaxxed anyway.

The fascist approach to fighting COVID has proven a disaster.  Let’s stop pushing it, shall we?

The editorial exhibits a strange desire for fascist methods to achieve a progressive aim, which I am pleased to point out.
