Thank Joe Biden for Your COVID-Positive Nurse<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/h2>\n

by James Bovard<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

If you pick up a COVID infection during your next visit to a hospital or medical office, maybe send a thank-you card to President Biden. His COVID vaccine mandate was one of the most perverse public-health edicts in modern times. Vaccination status went from being a proxy for health to being a substitute for sane healthcare policy.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Last September, Biden announced that he was mandating COVID vaccines for all 10 million healthcare workers in America \u2014 as well as for any American working for a company employing more than a hundred people. In a televised evening speech, he announced, \u201cMy job as president is to protect all Americans.\u201d Actually, his oath of office was to uphold and defend the Constitution, but no matter.Biden issued the equivalent of a declaration of war on 80 million unvaccinated Americans, portraying them as Public Enemy Number One<\/strong> (except for postal workers, who the White House exempted from the mandate due to the clout of postal unions). Biden castigated the unvaxxed: \u201cWe\u2019ve been patient but our patience is wearing thin. And your refusal has cost all of us.\u201d Biden\u2019s declaration sounded like the threat a dictator makes prior to invading a foreign nation. Biden finger-wagged: \u201cThis is not about freedom or personal choice. It\u2019s about protecting yourself and those around you \u2014 the people you work with, the people you care about, the people you love.\u201d But who would protect Americans from Biden\u2019s dictatorial mandates?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Biden\u2019s vaccine lies<\/b><\/h3>\n

The Biden administration has consistently portrayed vaccines as a pandemic panace<\/strong>a. Shortly before dictating the mandate, Biden promised, \u201cYou\u2019re not going to get COVID if you have these vaccinations.\u201d When he announced plans to impose the mandate in a September 9 speech, Biden declared that \u201cthere\u2019s only one confirmed positive case per 5,000 fully vaccinated Americans per day. You\u2019re as safe as possible.\u201d Biden deceived the American public by pretending that the vaccines would keep them safe by preventing all contagion. To buttress the Biden storyline, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ceased counting the vast majority of \u201cbreakthrough infections\u201d among vaccinated people several months earlier. The Washington Post<\/i> reported that the CDC\u2019s \u201coverly rosy assessments of the vaccines\u2019 effectiveness against delta \u2026 may have lulled Americans into a false sense of security.\u201d In October, Biden repeated his claim that vaccines prevent COVID transmission \u2014 even though the CDC had finally admitted its failure on that score.<\/p>\n

The moral principles involved in Biden\u2019s decree were showcased in numerous court battles late last year. Three days after Biden\u2019s mandate speech, a federal judge temporarily blocked New York State\u2019s vaccine mandate for all healthcare professionals, which was a mirror-image of the new federal mandate. Seventeen healthcare workers who claimed religious exemptions had asserted that the mandate \u201cemerges in the context of an atmosphere of fear and irrationality in which the unvaccinated are threatened with being reduced to a caste of untouchables if they will not consent to being injected.\u201d Biden did his best to fuel hostility, assuring vaccinated individuals that \u201cI understand your anger at those who haven\u2019t gotten vaccinated.\u201d<\/p>\n

Biden did not formally issue his vaccine decrees until November 5, when his appointees unveiled a 150,000+-word Federal Register sidewinder announcing his \u201cjab or job\u201d ultimatum. The official notice touted the initial 95% claimed efficacy of COVID vaccines from the clinical trials but ignored subsequent studies that revealed plummeting efficacy. Team Biden\u2019s announcement explained that it was mandating vaccinations because the \u201cmost important inducement [for vaccination] will be the fear of job loss.\u201d And the president had the right to destroy people\u2019s jobs for the \u201cpublic good\u201d \u2014 at least according to the latest progressive version of the Constitution. The ultimatum was justified, according to the Federal Register notice, because \u201cvaccination mandates have generally been more effective than merely encouraging vaccination.\u201d In other words, compulsion produces submission.<\/p>\n

Healthcare workers fight back<\/b><\/h3>\n

Across the nation, thousands of healthcare workers were fired for refusing to get injected. The Cleveland Clinic fired 700 employees. In New York, a hospital closed its maternity ward and ceased delivering babies because of a shortage of vaccinated nurses. One health system curtailed elective and nonemergency surgeries and reduced radiology treatment in part because of loss of health personnel due to the vaccine mandate.<\/p>\n

After conflicting decisions on the Biden mandate in federal appeals court, the Supreme Court speedily took up the case. According to a brief from the attorneys general of Missouri and Nebraska, Biden\u2019s mandate \u201cthreatens economic ruin and patient harm throughout the [healthcare] industry\u201d and \u201cwill have disastrous consequences on [health care] particularly in rural communities.\u201d The Federal Register notice on the new mandate dismissed concerns about the loss of healthcare staff because \u201cthere is insufficient evidence to quantify\u201d the impact. Since the feds chose not to tabulate the damage, the problem didn\u2019t exist. Biden responded to shortages of critical personnel by sending in a thousand U.S. military personnel to assist hospitals but provided zero relief for most healthcare facilities.<\/p>\n

In its brief to the Supreme Court, the Biden administration declared that the vaccine mandate was \u201ccritical to preventing outbreaks of (COVID-19) that had devastated Medicare- and Medicaid-participating facilities earlier in the pandemic.\u201d However, two weeks before the Supreme Court heard oral arguments, the CDC changed its previous guidance on healthcare workers isolating after testing positive for COVID-19. The CDC decreed that the quarantine time for COVID-infected health employees can be sharply reduced if there are staffing shortages. Some COVID-19-positive nurses across the country have been told to come into work and treat patients even if they still have symptoms.<\/p>\n

People who contract a virus and recover have natural immunity that subsequently protects them. But the Biden administration ignored post-infection immunity, perhaps because it did nothing for presidential bragging rights \u2013 \u201c100 million shots in 100 days,\u201d as Biden crowed in March 2021. According to Biden policymakers, it was better for hospital patients to be treated by fever-ridden COVID-positive nurses (whose COVID-19 vaccinations failed to safeguard them from the virus) than by unvaccinated nurses with no COVID. Zenei Triunfo-Cortez, president of National Nurses United, said the new policy \u201cwill only result in further transmission, illness and death.\u201d<\/p>\n

Shortly before the Supreme Court heard the case, Biden declared that \u201calmost everyone who has died from COVID-19 in the past many months has been unvaccinated.\u201d But the fully vaccinated accounted for 21% to 27% of COVID-19 fatalities in Oregon from August through November and 40% to nearly 75% of deaths in Vermont from August into October. The data had become so embarrassing to the Biden administration that the CDC stopped publishing vaccination details on COVID deaths in October.<\/p>\n

Biden admits \u201cno federal solution\u201d<\/b><\/h3>\n

Biden also admitted in late December that there is \u201cno federal solution (to COVID-19). This gets solved at the state level.\u201d That was a far cry from his pledge in his final debate with Donald Trump in October 2020, when Biden promised: \u201cI will take care of this. I will end this. I\u2019m going to shut down the virus, not the country.\u201d Biden\u2019s \u201cno federal solution\u201d offered ample justification for the Supreme Court to reject Biden\u2019s mandate.<\/p>\n

On January 7, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments amidst the worst COVID surge ever. \u201cMandates have curbed almost everything except COVID-19 cases,\u201d Yahoo editor Javier David quipped. Even though almost two-thirds of the U.S. population was fully vaccinated, more than a million new COVID cases were being diagnosed every day in early January. But that surge did nothing to stop Biden from prattling about a \u201cpandemic of the unvaccinated.\u201d<\/p>\n

During oral arguments, Justice Elena Kagan declared that the Biden policy is saying to healthcare providers \u201cthe one thing you can\u2019t do is to kill your patients.\u201d Workers must get vaccinated, Kagan said, \u201cso that you\u2019re not transmitting the disease that can kill elderly Medicare patients\u2026. You can\u2019t be the carrier of disease.\u201d<\/p>\n

Unless the carriers of disease are CDC-approved, as my USA Today <\/i>op-ed on the morning of the court\u2019s arguments noted. At that point, more than half a million healthcare workers had already had COVID-19 infections, and more than 99+% of them survived. However, the Biden mandate presumed that vaccines were the sole source of good health and protection and ignored postinfection immunity because of perceived \u201cuncertainties \u2026 as to the strength and length of (natural) immunity.\u201d However, a major Israeli study in August found that people who had COVID-19 have far better protection against the delta variant than people who have received multiple COVID-19 vaccine injections.<\/p>\n

The Supreme Court\u2019s deliberations occurred in a make-believe world that tacitly assumed that the vaccines were still the miracle cure that politicians like Biden initially claimed.<\/strong> But the effectiveness of the COVID booster shot had fallen to 31%, according to CDC. Nobel Laureate scientist Luc Montagnier noted in the Wall Street Journal <\/i>that Moderna and Pfizer vaccines after 30 days had no \u201cstatistically significant positive effect against Omicron infection, and after 90 days, their effect went negative \u2014 i.e., vaccinated people were more susceptible to Omicron infection.\u201d Later studies confirmed that vaccines and boosters increased the odds of contracting Omicron. CDC later admitted that almost half the COVID deaths in early 2022 were among the fully vaxxed. On January 11, Biden\u2019s FDA acting chief Janet Woodcock told a Senate committee that \u201cmost people are going to get COVID.\u201d So what was the point of mandatory vaccines?<\/p>\n

SCOTUS vaccine rulings a mixed bag<\/b><\/h3>\n

On January 13, the court voted to uphold the vaccine mandate for all healthcare workers by a 5 to 4 vote. (A separate ruling struck down Biden\u2019s mandate for employees of large companies.) The court\u2019s healthcare mandate ruling declared, \u201cEnsuring that providers take steps to avoid transmitting a dangerous virus to their patients is consistent with the fundamental principle of the medical profession: first, do no harm.\u201d Unfortunately, federal policymakers were exempt from the \u201cdo no harm\u201d admonition. The justices ignored or failed to comprehend how the Biden administration\u2019s welcome mat for COVID-positive nurses obliterated both its legal and moral case for mandates.<\/p>\n

Shortly after the decision was announced, The Lancet<\/i>, one of the most respected medical journals in the world, editorialized that healthcare workers who recovered from COVID should be exempt from vax mandates.<\/p>\n

COVID vaccines can help reduce the risk of severe outcomes from COVID among the elderly and people with compromised health. But there was never any scientific rationale for forcing every healthcare worker or every American to get an experimental jab that performed worse with each new COVID-19 wave.<\/p>\n

Biden\u2019s vaccine mandates are another demolition of freedom that do nothing to end the most politically exploited pandemic in American history. But the government has no liability for the injections it mandates or the freedoms it destroys. For bureaucrats and politicians, gaining power and compelling submission are victory enough, even when their policies fail to vanquish a virus. How much longer will politicians pretend that their iron fists are a magic bullet?<\/strong><\/p>\n
