Are Two Different Messages in the Same Week About the COVID Vaccine the Result of Calculation or Stupidity

Another day, another change in official “guidance” about what getting a China virus shot means and doesn’t mean.

Ordinarily, getting a vaccine means that you are immune to a particular disease. There are cases where a vaccinated person contracts the disease, but those cases are rare. The idea of vaccination=immunity is why we take the damned things. That’s why they are called “immunizations.” Conversely, because you can’t catch a particular disease when you are immunized, your ability to spread the disease is extremely limited. Ordinarily. As we are learning, anything to do with the Wuhan virus is far from ordinary.

On Monday, after some 64.18 million doses of China virus vaccine had been administered to Americans, virus guru Dr. Anthony Fauci made this rather extraordinary pronouncement:

So there are things, even if you’re vaccinated, that you’re not going to be able to do in society: for example, indoor dining, theaters, places where people congregate.  That’s because of the safety of society.  You, yourself, what you can do when you are together with another person, we are looking at that, and we’re going to try and find out very quickly what recommendations could be made about what people can do.

He follows this up with some pseudo-scientific gibberish:

One of the things that’s universal here that we know: that at this point in time, it is unclear whether when you get vaccinated and you might be protected from clinical disease, which is the primary endpoint of the vaccine studies, that you could conceivably be infected, have virus in your nasopharynx, and at that same time have no symptoms, which is the reason why we recommend and say you still need to wear a mask.  Because if you do have virus in your nasopharynx, even though we hope that when the data comes in, it’s going to show that the virus level is quite low and you’re not transmitting it, we don’t know that now.  And for that reason, we want to make sure that people continue to wear masks despite the fact that they’re vaccinated.

So, Dr. Walensky, why don’t you add to that?

Which she did:

So, for example, if you’ve been exposed and you’ve been fully vaccinated — two doses — there is no longer a need to quarantine after you’ve been exposed.

If you’re keeping score at home, the rule is that if you are vaccinated, you can’t get together with people because you might have virus deposits hidden away in some bodily orifice (as an aside, I’m glad to see Fauci is still focusing on the nose when his Chinese partners have moved on to bigger game, see Yikes: China Subjected U.S. Diplomatic Staffers to Anal Swab Testing For Coronavirus) but if you have been exposed to the virus after being vaccinated, you are free to move about in public.

Watch the quoted section in context:

or with the bottom line upfront:

Then, on Thursday, while being interviewed by Fredo, the brother of the slayer of old-folks and harasser of young women,  he seemed to change course.

Well, I think what you’re going to start seeing really soon, we’ve had some very serious discussions, with our colleagues at the CDC, is that what happens when you get two vaccinated people?

I’m vaccinated, my wife vaccinated, my daughters vaccinated. Back before vaccination, if they wanted to come to visit you, they’d have to quarantine for a while, get tested, wear a mask.

What we’re saying right now, even though it isn’t backed by data, it’s backed by common sense that if you have two vaccinated people, and they want to get together, be they family members, or friends that you know, are vaccinated, you can start getting, as individual people, even though the risk is not zero.

The risk becomes extremely low when you have both parties vaccinated. So, we’re going to start seeing people saying, “Hey, the more people get vaccinated, I can have dinner with my family member that comes in.”

Two thoughts here. First, if you seriously required your children (or anyone else) to quarantine/test before visiting you, you might be a sociopath who deserves to die alone and unmourned. Second, there is no such thing as a zero-risk situation. Getting the Wuhan vaccine (or any vaccine) entails well-documented risks. Driving a car carries risks. As citizens, we have a right to weigh those risks for ourselves and decide what we want to do. We don’t need advice, guidance, or permission from the Karenwaffen. By the way, does he imply in this, “they’d have to quarantine for a while, get tested, wear a mask,” that mask wear is NOT required if everyone is vaccinated?

Contrary to what some believe, I don’t think Fauci is an idiot. To me, it looks more like Fauci has an agenda. I don’t know what that is but were I to guess, it would be, after the obvious attention-whoring, to aggrandize power to the public health bureaucracy. Or maybe to push the Great Reset? (Listen to the podcast Susie Moore and I did on elite incompetence.)

Towards that end, he’s shown since March 2020 a willingness to say whatever he thinks needs to be said to achieve that goal without provoking an outright revolt. Back in March, he pooh-poohed the idea of wearing masks. As masks became the sacramental symbol of the public health bureaucracy and Karens and gutless “I’m-scared-sh**less-about-the-virus-and-I-want-you-to-know it types” everywhere, then Fauci changed his tune. Oh, he explained, I was just telling a virtuous lie because I didn’t want you proles hoarding masks and depriving brave heroes of the ability to wear them. Since then, we’ve seen two-mask-Fauci and one-mask-Fauci-redux. The same is true of his messaging on vaccines. Back in April, he said that things would never be back to the way they were before the China virus exploded onto the scene. That became 2022 will be normal, and 2021 will be normal by June, and it will be normal when 75% of the population gets the vaccine.

What we do know for certain is this. Given the grotesque falsehoods spread by the public health mafia in the guise of advice (read The Folly of Lockdowns Exposed in One Simple Graph}, it is increasingly hard to give the “experts” any kind of a benefit of a doubt. We have to assume that the contradictory messaging on the vaccine is calculated to keep the issue in play and people cooperating without giving us a firm endpoint for this nonsense. They’ve seen the pushback on “lockdown forever” and “face mask forever,” and they don’t want to repeat it with the vaccine (though when you get to the point where about half of the country is refusing to be vaccinated, you are damned close to mass resistance). I’m confident that we will see some unforeseen problem crop up (Wuhan variants, anyone?) that will push the goalpost further down the road because these people really don’t care if you live or die. They worship power. And that is what all of this is about.
