The COVID Misinformation Peddlers Get A Shot of Reality

By now you’ve probably seen the PBS documentary featuring Dr. Anthony Fauci and D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser going door-to-door to push vaccines and spread misinformation. If you were too frustrated or nauseated to sit through the whole video, take heart: the pair received plenty of pushback from residents. It’s an encouraging reminder that people are not buying the nonsense these public officials are selling.

Writing in the Daily Caller, Dr. Pierre Kory gives some insight into the cold reception:

In Ward 8 (Washington D.C.’s Anacostia), where these exchanges were filmed, 91 percent of the residents are Black and Biden won 94 percent of the vote in 2020. In other words, hardly the “Republicans” that Fauci sneered will “keep the outbreak smoldering” because “they don’t like to be told what to do.”

Yet as public health officials continued their “vaccine or bust” campaign, they lost more than just Republicans. Despite the Covid threat to kids and young adults being minimal, the nation’s capital was one of the last holdouts to abandon its ill-advised vaccine mandate for schools. In a city where nearly 60 percent of the school age population is Black, such a policy was incredibly reckless. Last fall, in lead-up to the implementation of the vaccine mandate, almost one in four D.C. students were not in compliance and faced the prospect of being barred from school.

With one in four Ward 8 families earning less than $15,000 annually and an average household income less than half of D.C. as a whole, being told that a vaccine produced under the umbrella of “warp speed” was a requirement for school attendance was bad. Worse were the performance makers put forward by the vaccine promoters that its product failed to meet.

…Everything we have been told by government bureaucrats has been wrong, and yet they refuse to acknowledge the error of their ways. Fauci continues his endless tour of fawning media interviews, maintaining his status as a demigod among the smug ruling class in places far away from Anacostia.

Meanwhile, children have fallen further behind in school, once-great city downtowns have hollowed out, and medical professionals who dared speak out have had their livelihoods threatened. Even doctors like me, a longtime Democrat voter who pulled the lever for Biden in 2020, have been targeted.

So while it’s all good fun seeing Fauci and Bowser face the music, the policies they have pushed these last three years are anything but. We will all be living with the consequences for years to come, and it’s up to all of us to hold them to account.

The PBS story shows this will be an uphill battle with people like Fauci and Bowser clinging to power and continuing to push failed strategies. That’s why FLCCC continues to fight with your support.
