Anti-vax dummies storm and steal from what they think is a Covid-vaccine center https://boingboing.net/2021/12/30/a...rm-and-steal-from-a-covid-testing-center.html An angry parade of covidiots stormed into an NHS test-and-trace center near London thinking it was a Covid vaccine clinic. Video below shows the protestors, who were part of a "freedom" rally, stealing equipment, holding anti-vax signs, and shouting at the staff, many who took cover by locking themselves in offices. From The Guardian: Video shared on social media showed the group of several dozen activists, led by former Ukip candidate Jeff Wyatt, walking through the facility holding signs encouraging people not to get vaccinated and criticising the BBC. Wyatt, a former deputy leader of the far-right For Britain Movement, addressed crowds at a rally held before the storming of the Covid-19 testing site, where he claimed there are "millions" of like-minded anti-vaccine activists who have "woken up". Protesters were filmed walking towards the NHS test-and-trace centre while a man on a loudspeaker claims that it is where the "vaccine rollout" is taking place as activists walk by a sign that reads "Testing". Other demonstrators are heard shouting "disgrace" and "shame on you" as staff appear to run away and take shelter in offices. (More at above url including video, tweets, etc.)
I see GWB has been posting all holiday break - the threads are all stacked with his usual (same) spam day in and out. Didn't you enjoy the holidays with family, GWB? What am I saying, of course you didn't. You're all locked down permanently. Anyway, back to the thread topic: Covidiots.
Texas pol who suggested grandparents willing to die from COVID tests positive https://nypost.com/2022/01/03/tx-po...nts-willing-to-die-from-covid-tests-positive/ Dan Patrick, the Texas lieutenant governor who once suggested elderly Americans were willing to die of COVID-19 in order to save the economy, now has the virus himself. Patrick, who’s been a critic of government shutdowns and other efforts to stop the spread of the disease, is recovering at his Houston home after testing positive, his campaign said Monday. His campaign says his symptoms are mild and he intends to return to his regular schedule next week after testing negative for COVID-19. The 71-year-old politician, a grandfather of seven, drew ire in March 2020 after suggesting shutdowns should be avoided at any cost — even if it meant lost lives. “As a senior citizen, are you willing to take a chance on your survival in exchange for keeping the America that all America loves for your children and grandchildren? And if that’s the exchange, I’m all in,” said Patrick during a FOX News interview. “You’re basically saying that this disease could take your life, but that’s not the scariest thing to you,” pressed FOX News host Tucker Carlson. “There’s something that would be worse than dying? Patrick explained other grandparents would be willing to make the same sacrifice in order to keep the country running. He previously said he was vaccinated. The politician, who is currently running for re-election, backed a Texas lawsuit filed in October against the federal government for requiring federal workers to be vaccinated.
