By Samuel Strait, Reporter at Large – November 9, 2021 The EU's Italy, and now the anal retentive German government has just had its hat handed to them over their Covid mandates and insistence on vaccinations for everyone. Will the narrative ever catch a break? It appears that the Germans who have suffered under severe masking and social distancing measures unrelenting for nearly two years, are now experiencing their highest level of positive Covid infections since the Pandemic appeared. What is this? With over 80% of Germans wearing masks and keeping their distance from their fellows, and a full vaccination rate topping 67%, the citizens should be the best protected in the entire EU, not so. Seems that the pandering and virtue signaling sheep in "the vaccination is the cure all for Covid, and masking, social distancing is essential in daily life" have run into the science and numbers that beg to differ. Is that going to cause the German government to change course? A big NOOOPE! The new message seems to favor the continuation of both despite NO evidence that it is working and plenty of evidence that it IS NOT WORKING. Aside from the numbers found here in the United States that masking and social distancing have absolutely no affect on whether you contract the virus, similar numbers have appeared regarding vaccination rates compared between States that have a high rate and those that show a low rate with absolutely no correlation between the two compared to virus incident numbers. The United Kingdom, Israel, and Singapore, all have extremely high vaccine rates as well as strict masking mandates, yet Sweden which early on refused to force the same restrictions on its countrymen has recently fared much better than Germany and the United Kingdom. As this science and the numbers mount, one would think that governments, the Media, and the Medical Establishment would re-evaluate their stance on vaccination and the various mandates. While very few are saying that masking and vaccination should not be allowed, everyone else should be given the choice in the matter. But, here in California and within the Federal Government that is not the case. Science and numbers are merely troubling little details, not to be taken seriously. Our empty headed Governor, Gavin Newsom and his "first person" have seen fit to take time away from the train wreck known as California to attend a lavish wedding in San Francisco where troubling things like vaccinations, masking, and distancing did not appear to be on many of the "guest's" minds. IV drips available to those that over indulged at one of the many events hosted by the bride and groom were substituted for any sense that the privileged were not to be troubled with restriction everyone else must adhere to. Rules for thee and not for me, and the other mass of socially acceptable at the wedding. What more clear evidence do those that are actually "awake" to the machinations of over bearing and out of control governance can there be. Certain as time goes by more numbers and science will appear that continue to damage the credibility of all the players involved. Will the medical establishment , the media, and governments ever be able to assert that they are for the safety and benefit of their citizenry ever again? The doubts over credibility in our institutions have already reached a new high, and likely will rise even further as the curtain continues to be drawn back….
