D.C.’s COVID Vaccine Mandate will Hurt Those it is Meant to Protect

With the news of Anthony Fauci’s departure from government, the media are putting on a full court press to reinforce his status as a bold and successful leader in the country’s response to the coronavirus pandemic. None will acknowledge, however, that his leadership directly caused the greatest stretch of misery, suffering and loss our country has endured since the Vietnam War era. Fauci played a pivotal role in pushing the most destructive policies of the past two years, from lockdowns to indiscriminate vaccinations to vaccine mandates.

Fauci’s legacy can be most acutely felt in Washington, D.C., the epicenter of his fandom and a uniquely deranged city that is requiring children over age 12 to get vaccinated for school.

As Dr. Pierre Kory writes in the Washington Times today, the discrepancy between the treatment of children in our nation’s capital and the rest of the country reflects a deeper disconnect ripping our nation apart.

On the campaign trail, Biden, who owes his 2020 victory to Black voters in South Carolina, turned heads by declaring that, “if you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump then you ain’t black.” On Inauguration Day, he signed an Executive Order outlining his, “comprehensive approach to advancing equity for all.”

Yet when Team Biden moved back to Washington, they found a region moving away from its “Chocolate City” roots. In 1977, when Biden was a first-term senator, D.C. was 77 percent Black. Today, that number has been cut nearly in half to just 41 percent.

The city’s gentrification has deepened inequality. Every latte shop or yoga studio in the Navy Yard or Logan Circle pushes lower income Washingtonians east of the Anacostia River, where Wards 7 and 8 remain nearly 80 percent Black and with average incomes less than half of those across the river.

As with so many of the Biden administration’s rules and mandates, the D.C. school mandate would hurt Black children most and undermine Biden’s commitment to racial equity:

If enforced, D.C.’s vaccine mandate would bar nearly two-thirds of Black adolescents from attending school, creating another obstacle for a population government should be empowering. The elite ruling class are happy to plaster “Black Lives Matters” stickers on their Teslas while supporting policies that hold back the next generation mere miles away.

Over socially-distanced glasses of Chardonnay, well-to-do Beltway residents cling to their Covid narrative where vaccines funded by the big pharmaceutical companies offer the only hope. In their world, no one – not even children – are safe without a vaccine. Anyone who dares deviate from the company line is dismissed as a backwater, Trump-supporting conspiracist, even lifelong Democrats like me.

They ignore data that challenges their point of view, including data finding 70 percent of U.S. public schools reporting an increase in students seeking mental health services since the start of the pandemic, or a Harvard University study showing “remote instruction was a primary driver of widening achievement gaps.”

These districts are not in places where parents can earn their six figure salaries from Zoom, order Uber Eats and enjoy a steady diet of Netflix.

Dr. Kory has painstakingly laid out the massive and growing body of evidence showing vaccine harm in his Substack. The actual scope of harm from vaccines is impossible to quantify because our public health agencies – led by Fauci – refuse to engage in debate. But the evidence is all around us:

Consider the large, unexplained rise in U.S life insurance claims amongst working age Americans of ages 18-64 beginning in early to mid-2021, when the vaccination campaign began. A similar trend is evident in German health insurance claims data – and the CEO of one of the country’s largest health insurance companies was fired for releasing data suggesting the government was concealing the extent of vaccine injuries.

As a presidential candidate, Biden pledged to “shut down the virus.” There are now more COVID-19 deaths on his watch than Trump’s. Biden, his wife, and over half of his cabinet have contracted the virus. Yet instead of changing course, his administration and its allies in D.C. cling to a failed political agenda, sacrificing the next generation at its altar:

D.C.’s vaccine mandates will hurt Black children the most, undermining Biden’s equity agenda. In November, let’s hope a reckoning is brewing for those who have suffered the most by a failed public health response. Our children, especially the most underserved, depend on it.
