So are we allowed to admit now that the vaccines don't really do anything at all? Is that okay?

Because, you know, the doctors are admitting it

I had the unfortunate shock this week of discovering that many if not most major medical facilities are still requiring universal masking on and within their properties. I thankfully don’t spend too much time in hospitals so I hadn’t realized this. But the mandatory masking signs are posted everywhere, and all the signs include an angry, underlined qualifier: “REGARDLESS OF VACCINATION STATUS.”

This is apparently not uncommon. In New York last month, for instance, the health commissioner ordered everyone statewide to wear masks “regardless of vaccination status,” and it is very easy to find hospital systems all over the country that are requiring it too. Among our civil institutions, medical facilities continue to demand face coverings for everyone, all the time, even if they’ve received every one of the eight or nine or 12 currently designated COVID-19 shots.

So with that in mind, can we just admit at this point that these “vaccines” are useless? Is that okay? Because that’s essentially what the hospitals are admitting, right? It is worth stressing, of course, that masks are a useless and stupid epidemiological tool, that they do nothing, and that they are nothing more than window dressing for hypochondriacs. But medical authorities don’t believe that—they believe masks are among the strongest medical protective devices in human history. And here’s what medical authorities are telegraphing by requiring everyone to wear masks “REGARDLESS OF VACCINATION STATUS:”

• The vaccinations don’t protect against spreading the virus. We’ve kind of known this since the beginning, though even now many people are still given to pretending as if getting the shot somehow renders you incapable of transmitting the disease. It doesn’t, of course, and the hospital policies prove that. If they still require you to strap a filthy strip of cotton to your face even when you’re vaxxed up, it means they still see you as a potential vector. So, vaccines are useless against stopping the spread.

• Vaccinations are also useless at offering protection from the virus. This is absolutely inescapable. In a world where COVID-19 vaccines are so widely available that they’re throwing away millions of vials because they can’t move them fast enough, the only reason you’d require universal masking at a hospital facility is that you’re afraid people will catch the virus and become seriously ill from it even if they’ve been vaccinated. Hospitals aren’t imposing these rules to protect unvaccinated people, after all; those people voluntarily made their choice to go without the shot and are plainly comfortable with the risk. No, the point is to shield vaccinated people, the ones who were scared enough of the virus to get the shot in the first place. And if your policy is, “Vaccinated people still need comprehensive protection from any possible exposure to the virus,” then you’re essentially admitting that vaccines don’t really do anything—that both their prophylactic and ameliorative qualities are effectively so useless that we almost have to pretend as if you never got the vaccine at all.

And you know what, it’s okay to admit that. It’s fine to concede, “Yeah, these vaccines simply didn’t do what they were supposed to do. Many pharmaceuticals are like that, and these things were rushed to market at breakneck speed, with comparatively minimal testing, under an intensely politicized medical regime, with immense pressure from every level of society to get them onto the market before anyone really knew what they were. Of course they’re going to suck.”

What would be nice is if we all admitted that and stopped acting as if these shots do anything of any real value at all. If nothing else, that would be immensely refreshing to see that level of honesty from so many authorities. Of course, once they do that, maybe they can admit that the masks are useless, too. Then we’d really be getting somewhere!
