It’s Wednesday, May 19th, 2021…but before we begin, Dr. Faux Chi continues to opine on issues far removed from his area of even\u00a0supposed<\/span><\/em> expertise, as…<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fauci says pandemic exposed ‘undeniable effects of racism’ in US<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/h1>\n

“Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation’s top infectious disease expert, said Sunday the\u00a0coronavirus outbreak\u00a0in the U.S. “shone a bright light on our own society’s failings” in how the virus impacted minority communities. Fauci stated that “the undeniable effects of racism” have led to unacceptable health disparities that especially hurt African Americans, Latinos and Native Americans during the pandemic.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

…<\/span>He told the graduates in Atlanta that many members of minority groups work in essential jobs where they might be exposed to the novel coronavirus. He noted they are more likely to become infected if exposed because of medical conditions such as hypertension, chronic lung disease, diabetes, or obesity.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

“Now, very few<\/span><\/em> of these comorbidities have racial determinants<\/span><\/em>,” Fauci said.\u00a0“Almost all relate to the social determinants of health dating back to disadvantageous conditions that some people of color find themselves in from birth<\/em><\/span> regarding the availability of an adequate diet, access to health care, and the undeniable effects of racism in our society,” he continued<\/span><\/strong><\/span>…”<\/p>\n

Here’s the juice: What does it tell you about the state of America’s health bureaucracy when its supposed “top infectious disease expert” is either ignorant of the facts or playing politics with The Mob?!?\u00a0 As we’ve REPEATEDLY stated in this column, any disproportionate impact the Wuhan virus has had on populations of color is because Black Americans<\/em><\/span> have a dramatically higher rate of obesity…\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

…than White Americans<\/em><\/span>…<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

…along with a significantly higher rate of all the associated comorbidities.\u00a0 \u00a0And if you’ve been into a Walmart of late, THAT is SAYIN’ SOMETHING!!!\u00a0 Sorry, Tony, but obesity is a life-style choice, and not attributable to a lack of access to health care or healthy food choices.\u00a0 The only “lack” in the Black community to which its presence can be attributed cannot be mentioned: the absence of Black fathers.<\/strong><\/p>\n

CDC\u2019s Walensky Explains Dramatic Reversal on Mask Guidance for Vaccinated Individuals<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/h1>\n

\u201cWe now<\/em><\/span> have science that has really just evolved<\/em><\/span> even in the last two weeks that demonstrates that these vaccines are safe<\/em><\/span>, they are effective<\/em><\/span>, they are working in the population<\/em><\/span>, just as they did in the clinical trials<\/em><\/span>,\u201d she said, \u201cthat they are working against our variants that we have here circulating in the United States<\/em><\/span>, and that, if you were to develop an infection, while — even if you got vaccinated, that you can’t transmit that infection to other people<\/em><\/span>.\u201d\u00a0(?!?)<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

She continued: \u201cSome<\/em><\/span> of that science was really evolving as late as last Thursday<\/em><\/span>.<\/span> And one of the published — one of the papers, the largest paper, was published from the CDC just the day before yesterday<\/em><\/span>.\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The developments were continuing to happen as she was testifying<\/em><\/span>, Walensky said.<\/span>\u00a0\u201cSo, we were actively reviewing that science during the past week. We were making decisions and moving — moving, and our subject matter experts while working just as I was testifying in front of Congress<\/em><\/span>.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/span>\u201cI told the American people I would deliver the science as soon as we have it,\u201d she added.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Walensky was also sure to note that the new guidance is “not permission for widespread removal of masks.”\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>\u201cFor those who are vaccinated, it may take some time for them to feel comfortable removing their masks, but also that these decisions have to be made at the jurisdictional level, at the community level<\/em><\/span>. Some<\/em><\/span> communities have been hit harder than others<\/em><\/span>, have lowered vaccination rates than others,” she said<\/span><\/strong><\/span>…”<\/p>\n

We think not; rather it’s because\u00a0some<\/em><\/span> communities…and some states<\/em><\/span>…have politicians and bureaucrats loathe to surrender the control they’ve gained through the baseless fears created by the scamdemic.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In yet another related item, FOX<\/em> informs us, while applauding the CDC’s guidance as “an important step, signifying our capability to eventually end the pandemic,” the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) emphasized the recommendations “make no change to mask-wearing guidance in health care settings, schools and public high-traffic areas including airports, as well as on airplanes, buses and other forms of public transportation<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/a>.”\u00a0 The IDSA…composed of epidemiologists.\u00a0 You know, the group which saw, as we noted in our last edition, some 80% of its members vote to maintain masking at least a year, 25% more than that and 26<\/em><\/span>% indefinitely<\/em><\/span>!\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
