Biden Congratulates Hero Florida Coast Guard Diver, Days Before He Will Fire Him And 20,000 Others For Not Getting Vaccinated

[Jim H - VA USA]

Biden phones hero Coast Guard diver to congratulate him for rescuing lives of Florida residents - just days before he will FIRE him for being unvaccinated as 20,000 members of military face axe​

• An heroic Coast Guard swimmer who saved the life of a disabled woman during Hurricane Ian was publicly thanked by President Joe Biden on Saturday
• Despite the gratitude, Aviation Survival Technician Second Class Zach Loesch is due to be discharged within two months over his refusal to be vaccinated
• He is one of the 2,632 members of the Coast Guard who have refused vaccination
• In total, there are around 15,000 active servicemen and women who are facing discharge over their vaccine stance
• Loesch, who has applied for a religious exemption, said that he didn't bring up the vaccine mandate when speaking to Biden
• Most service members who refuse the vaccine will be generally discharged meaning they can collect benefits and reenlist if they get the vaccine

Biden remains a tyrant. He refuses to give up his emergency powers even though he announced the pandemic was over last week.

Biden had four vaccines, then got sick with COVID for 20 days, and he still want to force the ineffective vaccines on others. There is no logical, just, or good-intentioned reason for continuing to mandate the vaccines or any involuntary COVID mandates.

[. Many Vaccines are Mandatory in the Military. They cannot say no to any of them. They are there to keep the members safe. Flu, Malaria, Diarrhea, Dengue, Hepatitis, etc.

There has never been any questioning on any of them until the Republicans made an issue of the Covid vaccine.

The Military members have made their choices, for religious or any other reasons. The consequence is losing their jobs, as it would have been if they refused any of the other vaccines ]

Thanks, but I think all of your points are without merit.

The vaccines don't work. Biden, Fauci, and HHS Secretary Becerra all got COVID twice after four vaccines.

The vaccines have known serious side effects, but you must waive all rights to sue, even if they kill you.

People who already had COVID (about 90% of the population) got the best vaccine available - natural infection.

Biden announced the pandemic is over. As such, all emergency powers and unConstitutional mandates should end.

Know what saves real lives? This unvaccinated hero.

Biden is a tyrant. It's not about Science or saving lives; it's about control and raising money for Big Pharma - the biggest donor to Democrats.

So, you think this guy should be fired? That's heartless.

That’s because those are real vaccines.

The current ones are EUA which means they are experimental and cannot be forced.

Then there is the fact that these WuFlu vaccines are dangerous, and do not work. Also, the virus it doesn‘t even protect against isn’t deadly for young people.

 

[SeaMajor7]

In this post reality world that has been thrust upon us, "vaccines" don't vaccinate, but you better OBEY because this is an "EMERGENCY".
Funny, I don't recall an "Emergency Clause" in the Constitution.

Your false argument is comparing actual immunization treatments to an experimental gene therapy where they had to change the meaning of "vaccine" just to get it to qualify.
Chicken noodle soup is a vaccine under the new definition.

NO other vaccine has been as maligned and only for political reasons.

Never mind that it does work in the sense that fewer people end up in hospitals, in ventilators or dead thanks to it.


Continue to not know, and not care to know.

There is a freedom of choice for those not in the Military. The military is another issue.


Choices have consequences .

Non vaccinated Republicans will continue to die at a higher rate than anyone else in the world.

Pro-Trump counties now have far higher COVID death rates. Misinformation is to blame

An analysis by NPR shows that since the vaccine rollout, counties that voted heavily for Donald Trump have had more than twice the COVID mortality rates of those that voted for Joe Biden.

Misinformation about the Vaccine, from the beginning, is what is killing people the most.

DO NOT educate yourselves. Someone might think you are an Independent.

[Gratefully, not all Republicans are against common sense and science. And leave politics where it belongs. Hospitals also demand the vaccine, and those who have refused to take it, for religious or other reasons, have faced the same consequences as the Military, or any other place where there are too many people dealing with too many people. Safety first. ]

Republican lawmaker's pro-vaccine messages are part of an effort to 'get the politics out of the vaccination process'​

A new campaign in mostly unvaccinated Shawano County seeks to persuade residents to get vaccinated against COVID-19

Just outside of Shawano, a billboard advertises the COVID-19 vaccine.

"I got the vaccine so I can protect myself and all the people I care about," it reads, alongside a photo of state Assembly Rep. Gary Tauchen, of Hartland.

Tauchen is a Republican, and his district is a conservative area. And like other rural parts of the state, uptake of the vaccine has been slow. Only 42 percent of Shawano County residents are fully vaccinated, according to state data, making it the county with the fifth-lowest vaccination rate in Wisconsin.

Tauchen, who is part of a coalition of leaders called the Community Health Action Team that is behind the new public messaging campaign, wants to see that change.

"I'm a farm boy by trade," Tauchen said. "We don't vaccinate part of our herd, we vaccinate the whole herd. And I think it's important to get as many people vaccinated as you can."

Tauchen is one of a relatively small number of elected Republican leaders in Wisconsin who've been willing to be a part of campaigns to publicly encourage vaccinations. GOP leaders like U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson have spent months promoting false or misleading information about the vaccine. In August, state Senate Majority Leader Chris Kapenga, R-Delafield, encouraged hospital workers to defy their employers' vaccine mandates.

Public health leaders say the politicization of the vaccine campaign has had deadly results.

Consistently for the last year Republicans have been more likely than Democrats or independents to tell opinion surveys they are skeptical of the vaccine. A study published in April found that unlike other groups, self-identified Republicans became more skeptical of the vaccine over time.

By October, the death rate from COVID-19 in rural areas was double what it was in urban regions of the Unites States, according to an analysis from the University of Iowa College of Public Health. Relatively low vaccination rates in rural areas were at least part of the explanation, according to the report. In Wisconsin, the latest data show that in September unvaccinated people were five times more likely than fully vaccinated people to be infected with COVID-19, nine times more likely to be hospitalized and 19 times more likely to die.

That's why the Community Health Action Team, which is organized by the health system ThedaCare, launched the new campaign using grant money from the state Department of Health Services. In addition to the billboards, it includes a series of radio ads in which a Shawano parent and a school board member urge vaccinations as a way to keep schools open; and a doctor describes overloaded conditions at the local hospital.

[ A reminder that even the Trump family got the Covid vaccine, and its boosters ]

Former President Donald J. Trump and his wife, Melania, quietly received coronavirus vaccinations in January before leaving the White House, an adviser said on Monday.

The news came a day after Mr. Trump appeared at the CPAC political conference in Orlando, Fla., where for the first time he encouraged people to go get vaccinated.

“Everyone should go get your shot,” Mr. Trump said during the speech. When The Times asked an adviser to the former president whether he had received his, the answer was that he had, in private, a month earlier.

The secret approach by Mr. Trump came as a number of his supporters have expressed resistance to the vaccine, and as other officials have tried setting an example by getting the shot in public.

Who’s vaccinated?

1. Donald Trump and every other living U.S. president
2. All 50 governors- both (Republican) and (Democratic)
3. Nearly 100% of US Congress
4. 96% of American physicians
5. 75-80% of the military, soon 100%

Who’s not vaccinated? 99.2% of all people currently dying of Covid-19.

Your choice.

No, it's not about support of the Republican Party; it's about Science, Justice, and Freedom.

I had COVID before vaccines were available. So did lots of the military. No need for any of us to get the vaccine, as Fauci told us definitively before he got his get rich scheme going with Pfizer.



The vaccines don't prevent infection or transmission, so they are effectively "a treatment" since they reportedly lessen symptoms after one gets COVID. This is probably not true either, since they fudge the numbers and the vaccinated people seem to get COVID multiple times and it last weeks (Biden, Fauci, Becerra, Trudeau.....). As such, it should be a personal choice.

It is illogical an unAmerican.

Ironically, it's also a lame effort to remove heroic Americans from federal service who are not obedient to the Democratic Party.

The CDC has removed all differences in its guidance related to vaccination status (wearing masks, isolation, etc.)

This tells anyone with half a brain that there is no difference between vaccinated and unvaccinated people.

The vaccines, when originally released, provided decent protection from infection with Alpha COVID. however, respiratory viruses mutate quickly. There are innumerable strains of COVID now. Delta COVID mutated the spike protein. The vaccines broke when that happened. Then Omnicron mutated it further, and the vaccines became basically worthless.

[You posted old data which is now worthless too. They stopped releasing the data in May of this year when it showed that the vaccines don't work anymore.]

The Covid vaccine is just like any other vaccine.
Flu and others need to be taken once a year.

They are also a treatment.

ALL of the Republicans in Congress have taken the vaccine. And even Trump and Melania.

They have no problem with the treatment. It is keeping them from ending up in the hospital, in ventilators or dead. It is not supposed to be perfect.

Even the flu vaccine is not perfect.


Could you stop telling the people what science is based on Republican misinformation and let people decide on their own? Maybe not.


I do not hear the Military who are having to leave it complain that they should have not been force to take it, as they were all others.

The same with Doctors and Nurses, etc. And many have died before the vaccine became available.


Make the choice for yourself and not for everyone else.

You are not a scientist, doctor or anyone who would remotely understand what is what with the vaccine.

Your posts are truly nothing more than repeating the endless misinformation which continues to affect mainly those who are Republicans who refuse to consider the vaccine at all, when ALL of the Republicans in Congress and their own Republican President, have taken the vaccine and continue to take the boosters.


Delegitimizing, demonizing the vaccine is only going to continue to harm mostly, those who choose to believe that misinformation .

Try, letting people make their own minds about it.

 

[Jim H - VA USA]

Make the choice for yourself and not for everyone else.

On Wednesday, you posted this...

"Got it!!!
One does not wish to get the Covid vaccine, do not. No one is being forced to get it. But misinformation, for the sake of misinformation, is not ok."

These heroes are being forced to get it, or lose their livliehoods. It makes no sense and you are here advocating for the tyrannical unscientific unAmerican Democrat policies.

You are not a scientist, doctor or anyone who would remotely understand what is what with the vaccine.

I am not a doctor, but I am a scientist. You?

Regardless of my qualifications, though, I stand by my rationale, which I have explained clearly and succinctly.

Try, letting people make their own minds about it.

That statement is full of hypocrisy. Please try to follow along. This thread is about Biden not allowing people to make up their own minds using their own free will, and you are talking out both sides of your keyboard.
