The country ’ s “ post-covid future ” is largely dependent on getting vaccines “ in people ’ s arms ” according to New York Governor Andrew Cuomo .
He made his comments during a covid breifing on Monday .
This is not the first time Cuomo has emphasized how important he believes it is to vaccinate the majority of the population .
Breitbart reports : Cuomo previewed his thoughts on a “ post-COVID future ” in New York and the U.S. and suggested it remains largely contingent on getting the majority of the population vaccinated .
“ What does @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what we ’ re going to make it look like .
It ’ s going to be what we do , and , clearly , the key is going to be the vaccine .
It ’ s the one really good piece of news we had in 2020 — was that the research community , the medical community , came up with highly effective vaccines , ” Cuomo said .
“ So it ’ s about getting those vaccines now in people ’ s arms right ?
… But what matters is getting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” Cuomo added , noting that 140,000 New Yorkers have received one vaccine , putting the state at the top of the national chart in the number of vaccines that have been administered .
He said the state expects another 259,000 vaccines from both Pfizer and Moderna this week .
Cuomo said they will continue to go down the list in administering the vaccines to priority populations .
This week , for example , officials in New York will focus on urgent care center employees , as well as those who administer the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
This is far from the first time the Democrat governor has emphasized the importance of vaccinating the majority of the population .
“ I ’ m also frustrated that we see polls that suggest a high percent of Americans are not ready to take this vaccine , 49 percent nationwide , ” Cuomo said during a press conference this month , with a special appearance from Dr. Anthony Fauci , who agreed with the governor that 75 to 80 percent of the population needs to be vaccinated to reach what Cuomo described @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that happens , Governor , is going to be entirely dependent upon how well we do , how well I do , you do , your health officials , in getting the message out of why it ’ s so important for people to get vaccinated because if 50 percent of the people get vaccinated , then we don ’ t have that umbrella of immunity over us , ” the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease director stated .
Fauci told PODCAST-19 last week that he believes Americans will “ start @ @ @ @ @ @ @ next fall but added that it is largely contingent on an “ overwhelming majority ” of the population getting vaccinated .
“ It ’ s going to depend on our success in vaccinating what I would say is an overwhelming majority of the population , between 70 to 85 percent , ” Fauci said .
“ If we can do that , by mid to end of the summer , I think as we get into fall , October , November , times like that , I think we will be very close @ @ @ @ @ @ @ he added .

“When that happens, Governor, is going to be entirely dependent upon how well we do, how well I do, you do, your health officials, in getting the message out of why it’s so important for people to get vaccinated because if 50 percent of the people get vaccinated, then we don’t have that umbrella of immunity over us,” the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease director stated.
Fauci told PODCAST-19 last week that he believes Americans will “start seeing life get back to normal” next fall but added that it is largely contingent on an “overwhelming majority” of the population getting vaccinated.

“If we can do that, by mid to end of the summer, I think as we get into fall, October, November, times like that, I think we will be very close to a degree of normality,” he added.

Senator Marco Rubio has slammed the elites in America for attempting to trick Americans into taking a COVID vaccine .
Rubio singled out Dr. Anthony Fauci , declaring that the lockdown-in-chief has consistently lied to the public .
“ Dr .
Fauci lied about masks in March .
Dr. Fauci has been distorting the level of vaccination needed for herd immunity , ” Rubio tweeted .
The Senator declared that “ It isn ’ t just him .
Many in elite bubbles believe the American public doesn ’ t know ‘ what ’ s good for them ’ so they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the right thing.
’ ” Summit.news reports : Fauci , like many other government health officials , did a complete 180 flip on masks earlier in the year , after originally advising the public that the face coverings are not effective against the virus .
The evidence still has not emerged to support the notion that face coverings in any way mitigate the spread of the disease , yet Fauci and others have continuously urged the public to wear them , leading many countries to mandate the masks .
Senator Rubio ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ vaccines came after the epidemiologist admitted to the New York Times that he and other public health officials engaged in “ quietly shifting ” the numbers of Americans they believe must take the shot in order to achieve “ herd immunity.
” “ When polls said only about half of all Americans would take a vaccine , I was saying herd immunity would take 70 to 75 % , ” Fauci said , adding “ Then , when newer surveys said 60 % or more would take it , I thought , ‘ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ’ so I went to 80 , 85.
” “ We have to have some humility here…We really don ’ t know what the real number is .
I think the real range is somewhere between 70 to 90 % .
But , I ’ m not going to say 90 % , ” he added .
Appearing on CNN , Fauci explained away the remarks by saying “ I want to encourage the people of the United States and globally to get vaccinated.
” Despite criticising Fauci on his vaccine comments @ @ @ @ @ @ @ last week : Fauci declared last week that he believes holiday celebrations between family members should have been canceled , warning that it ’ s “ just one of the things you ’ re going to have to accept ” .

The “ Minor Consent for Vaccinations Amendment Act , ” B23-017 , was passed last month .
The bill permits children aged 11 years or older “ to consent to receive a vaccine where the vaccination is recommended by the United States Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices.
“ “ It also establishes that if a minor is able to comprehend the need for , the nature of , and any significant risks inherent in the medical care then informed consent is established.

Lawmakers in the District of Columbia (D.C.) have passed a bill allowing children to be vaccinated without their parents’ knowledge or consent.

The bill permits children aged 11 years or older “to consent to receive a vaccine where the vaccination is recommended by the United States Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices.“
“It also establishes that if a minor is able to comprehend the need for, the nature of, and any significant risks inherent in the medical care then informed consent is established.”
Lifesitenews.com reports: The bill not only permits children of this age to provide consent to doctors and other vaccine administrators without a parent’s knowledge or consent, but also requires insurance companies, school administrators, and medical personnel to conceal from parents that their child has been vaccinated.
The legislation mandates (in lines 37–38) that “[p]roviders who administer immunizations under the authority of this subsection shall seek reimbursement, without parental consent, directly from the insurer” rather than involving a parent in this process.
Secondly, it mandates that insurance companies are not to notify parents of such payouts in the standard way. “Insurers shall not send an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) [to the child’s parents] for services provided,” the bill states (line 40).
More fundamentally, if this bill becomes law, The Vaccine Reaction (V.R.) warns, “it is clear that minor children will be at risk of being pressured and coerced into getting a COVID-19 vaccine behind their parents’ back.”
V.R. also demonstrates how B23-0171 violates the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986 (NCVIA), which requires health care providers to supply parents or guardians with vaccine information from the CDC prior to administering the vaccine to their minor child.
The CDC itself affirms this to be a legal requirement on its website. According to an “FAQ” question, “Is there a requirement to verify that parents/legal representatives have actually received and reviewed the VIS (Vaccine information Statement)?,” the answer is “Yes.”
Obviously, V.R. argues, children are “far less likely than an adult parent to understand personal and family medical history, including vaccine reactions,” nor do they “have the same kind of critical thinking skills or emotional maturity required to make a well-informed vaccine benefit-risk decision compared to an adult.”
In 1986, the U.S. Congress passed the NCVIA, which, with its 1987 amendment, and a subsequent Supreme Court decision, effectively removed all legal and fiscal liability from vaccine-manufacturers, doctors, and other vaccine administrators when mandatory vaccines cause even permanent injury or death. Earlier this year, federal regulators explicitly reinforced the same policy for coronavirus vaccine–makers.
Some degree of liability is now covered by the U.S. taxpayers in the federally run Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, also created by the NCVIA. To date, this program has paid out approximately $4.4 billion, providing concrete evidence that vaccines can cause significant, even permanent injury and death.
If a child accepts a vaccination without parents’ knowledge, and if he develops a serious reaction, parents may not recognize the symptoms as being potentially related to their child’s vaccine and fail to seek appropriate medical care in a timely fashion. Such a situation could be life-threatening.
And considering the fact that vaccine-manufacturers are immune from all liability, V.R. affirms, “[t]here is no justification for the state to eliminate a parent’s legal and moral right to make an informed benefit and risk decision about vaccination on behalf of a minor child.”
According to V.R., B23-0171 also violates the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) in compelling schools to conceal the vaccine status of children from their parents. FERPA “guarantees parents the right to have access to their children’s education records. The definition of ‘education records’ include health and vaccine records at the K-12 level.”
As parents have become more self-educated and less comfortable with their children being given different vaccinations, support for the circumventing of their natural rights, with minor consent legislation, has recently grown in the medical community. Last year, The New England Journal of Medicine published an opinion piece supporting the idea, and the American Medical Association passed a resolution encouraging the ratification of state laws allowing minors to consent to vaccinations.
Due to this effort, 34 minor consent bills were introduced in state legislatures over the last two years. Having listened to parents, legislators have rejected a total of 33 of them, with the D.C. bill being the only one remaining in play.

There have been no new cases of COVID-19 in Victoria for two months, but the New Year’s Eve fireworks display in Melbourne has been cancelled.
As we previously highlighted, Australians were subject to one of the most draconian lockdowns in the developed world.
A pregnant woman was arrested in her own home for promoting a lockdown protest on Facebook while authorities also made home visits to people planning to attend.
A new law would have also given police the power to arrest coronavirus “conspiracy theorists” if it was thought they may commit a crime in the future.

The World Health Organization ( WHO ) is warning that there is “ no evidence to be confident that any of the coronavirus vaccines prevent transmission ” According to the WHO people who receive the vaccine should continue wearing masks and continue to follow all the social distancing and travel guidelines .
So does that mean the vaccines don ’ t really work ?
Zero Hedge reports : The comments were made by WHO chief scientist Soumya Swaminathan during what appears to have been a virtual press conference held Monday .
A clip of the offending line has begun circulating @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a close look at the research released by Pfizer and Moderna shows the studies haven ’ t actually tested whether the vaccines actually prevent transmission of the virus ; the goal of the trials was to see whether vaccinated patients presented with COVID symptoms at a rate that was substantially less frequent than individuals who hadn ’ t been vaccinated .
That ’ s pretty much it .
Though the data might hint at lowering transmission rates , that ’ s still tbd , apparently .
Some on twitter scoffed at the comment @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that there ’ s no evidence to suggest that those who have been vaccinated wouldn ’ t be a risk if they traveled to a foreign country , say Australia , with relatively low COVID rates .

But we suspect they won ’ t .
Why ?

A clip of the offending line has begun circulating on social media.
“At the moment, I don’t believe we have the evidence on any of the vaccines, to be confident that it’s going to prevent people from getting the infection and passing it on,”
Of course, a close look at the research released by Pfizer and Moderna shows the studies haven’t actually tested whether the vaccines actually prevent transmission of the virus; the goal of the trials was to see whether vaccinated patients presented with COVID symptoms at a rate that was substantially less frequent than individuals who hadn’t been vaccinated. That’s pretty much it. Though the data might hint at lowering transmission rates, that’s still tbd, apparently.

Trump was buoyed in the contest by his high popularity among Republicans while Democrats split their choice for most admired man among a few notable figures. Trump was the pick of 48% of Republicans with no other name getting more than 2% of Republican votes. Democrats split their votes between Obama (32%), Biden (13%), and Fauci (5%). Independents went equally for Trump and Obama at 11% each.
“This year marks the 10th time Trump has finished among the top 10 men, including four times before he entered party politics – 1988 through 1990 and 2011. Gates has finished in the top 10 a total of 21 times, while Obama has now done so 15 times and the Dalai Lama 11 times. Biden has been in the top 10 once before, in 2018, while Fauci and James are new to the list,” Gallup reported.
Evangelist Billy Graham, who died in 2018, has the most top 10 finishes on the list, more than any other man by far with 61. He is followed by former President Ronald Reagan, who died in 2004, who is second with 31. Former President Jimmy Carter has the most top 10 finishes in the poll of any living president at 29.
Trump appears to be leaving the White House next year, though he has not yet conceded the presidential race to Biden and continues to lob allegations that widespread voter fraud contributed to Biden’s win. Trump and his allies have yet to prove enough instances of fraud in court to affect the outcome of the election.
On Dec. 14, Biden secured the Electoral College vote and is heading to a 302-232 victory over the incumbent president. Congress will meet on Jan. 6 and is expected to certify Biden as the winner.
Trump still enjoys support from a majority of Republicans, who say that if the sitting president were to run again in 2024, they would vote for him. As The Daily Wire reported in November:

After discovering sickening and disturbing content on the hard drive, Mac Isaac handed the machines to the FBI and gave a copy of the contents to lawyer Rudy Giuliani.
Material from the drive, including bombshell emails, was then leaked to the press, exposing illicit activity and shady business dealings with China. Despite the contents of the drive being verified, Twitter took the decision to brand Isaac a “hacker” and censor any stories about it from circulating online.
Nypost.com reports: Mac Isaac is suing Twitter for defamation in US District Court, claiming the company decided to “communicate to the world that [Mac Isaac] is a hacker.”
But Miami federal Judge Beth Bloom quickly dismissed the case on Monday, ruling that “the Court lacks subject matter jurisdiction” because the suit says Mac Isaac is a citizen of Delaware and Twitter is incorporated there.
“The sole basis for subject matter jurisdiction is diversity of citizenship,” Bloom wrote.
“Thus, accepting the Complaint’s allegations as true, the Complaint fails to allege complete diversity.”

The aim was to reduce the state’s prison population, saying any person guilty of what was deemed a “nonviolent felony offense” would be rewarded an early parole.
“The initiative’s language provides no indication that the voters intended to allow the (Corrections) Department to create a wholesale exclusion from parole consideration based on an inmate’s sex offense convictions when the inmate was convicted of a nonviolent felony,” Chief Justice Tani Cantil-Sakauye, who was appointed by former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, wrote in the unanimous decision.

RT reports: Commenting during a media briefing on Monday, Dr. Ryan explained that the fatality rate of the current virus is reasonably low compared to other emerging diseases. He also admitted that the coronavirus pandemic has spread around the world extremely quickly and affected every corner of the planet.
He went on to describe the pandemic as a “wake-up call,” saying that it has given the WHO the opportunity to learn how to respond to such emergencies better.
We need to get our act together; we need to get ready for something that might be even more severe in the future.
Dr. Ryan explained that the planet is fragile and “we live in an increasingly complex global society, and these trends will continue.”
When speaking about vaccines, Dr. Ryan predicted that mass vaccination would likely reduce the virus to another low-level threat. He cited the examples of polio and measles, the diseases which were brought under control with the help of vaccines. He added, however, that a vaccine cannot guarantee that an infectious disease would be “eliminated or eradicated.”

People who don ’ t agree with wearing face masks are the same people who think they need an AR-15 for “ protection ” according to actress Alyssa Milano “ Anti-maskers are the same people who think they need an AR-15 for “ protection ” .
