The Biden administration is continuing its Covid ’emergency’ until at least April via the Transportation and Security Administration requirement that all non-citizen travelers to the United States be “fully vaccinated” for the virus.
“On October 25, 2021, the President issued a proclamation, Advancing the Safe Resumption of Global Travel During the COVID-19 Pandemic, to move away from the country-by-country restrictions previously applied during the still ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and to adopt an air travel policy that relies primarily on vaccination as an added tool to the current multi-layered strategy to advance the safe resumption of international air travel to the United States,” the order reads.
“The Proclamation rescinds the previous proclamations for COVID-19 related travel restrictions and governs the entry into the United States of noncitizen nonimmigrants traveling to the United States by air,” it adds.
The Emergency Amendment rests on the false argument that the mRNA shots significantly reduce infection and transmission of the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
“To implement the Proclamation, TSA issued this Emergency Amendment (EA), which canceled and superseded the EA 1546-20-01 series, in accordance with 49 CFR part 1546. Together with the Presidential Proclamation and the CDC Order, these policies are intended to limit the risk that COVID-19, including variants of the virus that causes COVID-19, is introduced, transmitted, and spread into and throughout the United States, potentially overwhelming United States healthcare and public health resources, endangering the health and safety of the American people, and threatening the security of our civil aviation system,” the order states.
In October, the New York Supreme Court ruled that vaccines do not significantly stop the spread of Covid-19, thereby rendering the state’s vaccine mandates moot. New York’s public workers had to be rehired and given back pay, the court found.
In its ruling, the court determined that “being vaccinated does not prevent an individual from contracting or transmitting COVID-19.” A judge in a lawsuit against the federal CMS Medicare vaccine mandate for health workers came to the same conclusion.
It gets even worse for the Covid vaccine mandate: New scientific research shows that the vaccinated are more than twice as likely to be infected with Covid-19 than those who had a prior infection.
The American Public Health Association article revealed the false claim that mRNA shots would stop the spread of Covid-19 is even worse than misleading — it is the exact opposite.
“Six months after the index date, the incidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection was significantly higher in vaccine recipients (6.7%) than the previously infected (2.9%),” the researchers found.
The Washington Post recently drove another nail in the “pandemic of the unvaccinated” coffin with its analysis that the majority of Americans dying from Covid-19 were at one point “fully vaccinated.”
“For the first time, a majority of Americans dying from the coronavirus received at least the primary series of the vaccine,” the Post analysis stated.
As reported earlier, the Centers for Disease Control and Infection (CDC) tracks the seroprevalence of nucleocapsid antibodies that are an indicator of SARS-CoV-2 exposure on its serohub.
Serohub shows that as of July 2022, 97% of the American public had been exposed to the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Many of these Americans with prior infections were exposed to the Omicron variant.
Thus, the TSA policy is based on fighting a virus that nearly all Americans have been exposed to and have some antibody protection against. It is also a fact that 95% of Americans who are vulnerable to the virus are elderly or otherwise immunocompromised. Issuing mandates based on a state of “emergency” that affects millions of people based on statistical outliers continues to be authoritarian nonsense.
The U.S. government began this heavy-handed approach to public policy with 9/11 and the subsequent Patriot Act, which resulted in the TSA taking control of domestic and international travel. The result? Americans stripping their belts and shoes at airports like suspected terrorists and the unscientific charade of forced masking — an ineffective policy that did nothing to stop the near-universal spread of Covid.
The American people must push back against the U.S. government’s instinct to fight minor problems with totalitarian policies that cause massive upheaval throughout the nation. The alternative is living in a country where on any given day a politician can unilaterally issue a declaration of “emergency” that upends millions of people’s lives.
