Unvaxxed will ‘overwhelm’ hospitals in ‘winter of illness and death’
President Biden sounded like he’d been watching “Game of Thrones” as he warned Thursday that the unvaccinated “will soon overwhelm” US hospitals and vaccine refusers will experience “a winter of severe illness and death.”
“It’s here now and it’s spreading and it’s going to increase,” Biden said of the new Omicron variant of COVID-19 at the White House, seated near his chief medical adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci.
“For [the] unvaccinated, we are looking at a winter of severe illness and death — the unvaccinated, for themselves, their families and the hospitals they will soon overwhelm,” Biden said.
He urged people to seek out vaccine “booster” shots to prevent school shutdowns and business restrictions.
“Go get boosted if you’d had your first two shots. If you haven’t, go get your first shot. It’s time, it’s time — it’s past time,” Biden said.

Biden Says Unvaccinated Will ‘Overwhelm’ Hospitals, Warns Of ‘Winter Of Severe Illness And Death’
“I want to send a direct message to the American people: Due to the steps we’ve taken, Omicron has not yet spread as fast as it would have otherwise done,” Biden told reporters after a COVID-19 briefing at the White House.
“But it’s here now and it’s spreading and it’s gonna increase,” the president added.
“We are looking at a winter of severe illness and death for the unvaccinated — for themselves, their families, and the hospitals they’ll soon overwhelm. But there’s good news: If you’re vaccinated and you have your booster shot, you’re protected from severe illness and death,” Biden said.
Biden also said that a vaccinated public will contribute to safeguarding the country’s economic recovery.
“We’re going to protect our economic recovery if we do this. We’re going to keep schools and businesses open if we do this. And I want to see everyone around enjoy that. I want to see them enjoy the fact that they’re able to be in school, that businesses are open and the holidays are coming,” Biden said.

Doom Is Yours: Biden Threatens Winter of ‘Severe Illness and Death’ for the Unvaccinated
As for Pfizer, according to RT on Sunday, “documents released by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reveal that drugmaker Pfizer recorded nearly 160,000 adverse reactions to its Covid-19 vaccine in the initial months of its rollout. The documents were obtained by a group of doctors, professors, and journalists calling themselves Public Health and Medical Professionals for Transparency, who filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request with the FDA for their release.”
In other words, it isn’t at all clear that “if you’re vaccinated and have your booster shot you’re protected from severe illness and death,” as Biden claimed, but the guardians of acceptable opinion have decided that suspicions about the efficacy and side effects of the vaccines are not permissible.
Biden continued his scolding session by saying: “Get your booster shot. It’s critically important. And if you haven’t, you haven’t gotten your booster shot, get your first shot.” Regarding the booster, the BBC reported Friday that “UK researchers have analysed the likely impact that a Covid booster shot will have on Omicron and say it could provide around 85% protection against severe illness.” That sounds great until you learn that “the protection is a bit less than vaccines gave against earlier versions of Covid,” and that “the researchers say there is a high degree of uncertainty until more real-world information is gathered about this new variant that is spreading quickly.”
So Old Joe is demanding that Americans get vaccines about which there are increasing reports of adverse side effects, and a booster that no one is really sure works at all. This is a magnitude of hysteria we haven’t seen since the Salem witch trials; what has been forgotten amid the regime’s Covid hysteria is that if the vaccines had really proven to be safe and effective, no one would have hesitated to get them at all. But the fact that they’re being pushed so energetically by people who are serially and habitually dishonest only makes many people all the more suspicious.
What’s more, when Biden warms that the unvaccinated will soon overwhelm the hospitals, his threat of doom for the unvaccinated come with a whiff of menace. Biden’s warning came amid increasing calls on the Left to deny hospital space to the unvaccinated, which could happen on a large scale in the near future. Yet all of this is to combat a Covid variant that is mild, but about which Biden’s handlers and the establishment media are doing everything they can to whip up a new fever pitch of Covid hysteria.
So maybe the “severe illness and death” that Biden sees looming for the unvaccinated will come to them because they will be refused basic medical care, in what would be the crowning injustice of this outbreak of hysteria. Given Leftists’ ongoing, multifaceted and relentless demonization of their political opponents, it wouldn’t be at all difficult to envision a scenario in which hospital space is denied to those who note the growing evidence of the dangers and inefficacy of the vaccines. And those who deprived others of medical treatment would feel righteous, as righteous as the mask scolds who still haunt department stores and supermarkets. The good burghers of Salem who put the witches to death thought they were doing the right thing, too.

Mask Mandates Have Convinced Me That the Oath Keepers Have a Solid Point About 'Back the Blue'
About the time of the Tea Party movement, I wrote a post highly critical of the “Oath Keepers” movement within the Armed Forces and law enforcement. The thrust behind the Oath Keepers was that there were bright lines that their membership would not cross in the course of carrying out their duties. This is the list of orders they pledged not to obey, adapted from their website.
My post is no longer available on the internet, as far as I can tell, but my view at that time was that no society could afford to have armed men charging about the landscape, making their own rules for when and how they will carry out their duty. The secondary point was that the Oath Keeper “will not” list was all fever dream stuff that could never happen here. I now concede that I was childishly optimistic about what was possible in the United States. Though I still hold my original view on the importance of men with guns following orders, it has become more nuanced. If we demand our military and police do what they are told to do, we have to trust that they will only receive sane and lawful orders from their superiors. By lawful, I don’t necessarily mean just “legal” but also orders that fall within our constitutional and republican traditions. By sane, I mean orders that wouldn’t strike the average person as batsh** crazy.
I don’t care how many “lawful” orders are issued about social distancing; there is no circumstance where police are permitted to enter a private residence to enforce this kind of a bullsh** ordinance. Here, again, are New York’s finest in action.
No ordinance forbidding outdoor gatherings justifies police breaking up a funeral procession.
Normal people don’t arrest a mother with her daughter for trespassing no matter how many “lockdown” orders have been flung bout.
The fallacy in my thinking was rooted in the assumption that elected leaders and senior appointed officials would balk at ordering crap that was unconstitutional and/or made them look stupid. Obviously, I was wrong. It had never occurred to me that police officers would obey orders that required them to pepper spray mourners or give a beat-down to someone without a mask or go to someone’s home to demand to know how many people were inside. This is the type of fascist nonsense we used to expect from the Soviet Bloc or, in the last 18-months, Australia.

True. No chance to build up immunity.

Actually it's far worse. The PPI, (Producer Price Index), a far more accurate reflection, though still short on truth, hit 9.6% in November. This represents the increase in materials cost for manufactures/producers of things made. Do they think that manufacturers are only increasing their prices by 6%? Of course they are not. Most know that we are running closer to 15% inflation.

I went to a supplier yesterday where I purchase some things and was amazed at the cost of cooking oil.
The oil I was buying in 5 gallon containers that was costing me around $25.00 dollars was $45.00 dollars and Peanut oil was $78.00.
I know the price of fuel has gone up , but cooking oil has almost doubled. Damn.

I wanted some peanut oil for deep fry, couldn't find it anywhere. This was back in early 2020. Ordered (2) 3 gallon containers from Walmart for about $30 each. Used to be $15-18.

Just buy the all natural type peanut butter with the oil that settles on top. After opening, pour out the oil into a collection jar. Sure, it might take awhile to get what you need, and you would have drier peanut butter, but it is a two for one win, over time.

At that point, wouldn’t he be better off buying his own peanut farm?
NY Governor Hochul: ‘Fully-Vaccinated’ Will Likely Include Booster ‘At Some Point’
“At some point, we have to determine that fully-vaccinated means boosted as well,” Hochul told reporters at a press conference Thursday. “And we’ll give people a sufficient timeframe to make that happen.”
CNY Central reports that the legislation would be presented shortly, but the changes would not be made until more data had been gathered and the legislation was thoroughly debated. Hochul also warned of the spread of the Omicron variant of the coronavirus.
“People are underestimating the power of Omicron because they say, ‘people aren’t getting sick, they aren’t going to hospitals,’ but if you have a million more people infected, that means you will have over-flowing hospitals at this rate,” Hochul said.

Sure Looks Like There's a Coordinated CNN Effort Underway on that COVID Messaging
It surely does look like that the flip on the COVID messaging at CNN is a coordinated effort.
I wrote earlier about Brian Stelter’s sudden change – talking about “living with COVID” running as a chyron, saying that we needed to reassess the approach and arguing that kids should no longer be kept out of schools because it was harmful to them. This follows the report that some on the Biden team might be changing their messaging and moving to the concept of “living with COVID.”
But CNN’s Chris Cillizza seems to have had a revelation as well. And after 18 months, seeing folks at CNN actually being truthful and finally accepting reality is a little jarring.

Joe Biden's Latest Message on COVID Should Anger You
And what does a person’s unvaccinated status have to do with their families? Is Biden still trying to suggest that the unvaccinated somehow represent an outsized risk to those around them? We know that everyone spreads COVID and at around the same rate.
Then there’s the mention of hospitalizations. We already have data out of South Africa showing that Omicron has actually led to a massive drop in hospitalizations. That’s because this newest variant appears to be very mild compared to Delta. Biden’s fear-mongering isn’t backed by any data. Heck, even if we were only dealing with Delta here, enough people have natural immunity at this point that it was never probable that hospitals would be overwhelmed. Remember, the current wave is in the Northeast, where vaccination rates are very high. The South’s wave has already passed and they never saw hospitals overwhelmed.
So why is the White House pushing this hysterical, dangerous rhetoric that seeks to pit Americans against each other for no scientific reason whatsoever? The answer is because it’s all they’ve got. Biden and his cohorts are calculating that because a majority of people are vaccinated, that they can somehow make the unvaccinated a foil going into 2022. That’s the plan, as simple and dumb as it is. They need someone to blame for their massive failures, and the unvaccinated will have to do.
