Stupid is as stupid does |
There is no rational reason why any race of human beings should receive the COVID-19 vaccination before any other race. The criteria for one's place in line should be about the vulnerability of an individual bases on what leftists love to refer to as "the science." And yet, while the left calls conservatives science deniers whenever they disagree on issues like climate change, for example, this is how they label us.
The inoculation against a disease that is deadly to a particular population should not be prescribed by "racial justice." Racial justice is a term the left made up in order to get the votes from minorities, just like the left wants no restrictions on illegal aliens entering the country. Let's not pretend that if illegal aliens tended to vote for Republicans, the left would call for the unimpeded influx of illegal aliens.
Massachusetts Sen. Ed Markey (D) said that "racial justice" should be the first priority in vaccinating Americans, because, um, racial justice [and votes]. The fact that the left doesn't see this as a self-serving political ploy is the very definition of cognitive dissonance.
Many ripped the liberal senator’s tweet, saying that minimizing deaths should be the number one priority, and this has absolutely nothing to do with the amount of melanin in one's skin, but is determined in great length by age, certain medical conditions, and weight.
Markey transparently posted:
"Racial justice must be our number one priority as we distribute the COVID-19 vaccine," the Connecticut Democrat. "Join me live with @SenWarren, @RepPressley, @NikaElugardo, @macurry01, and Rev. Culpepper as we discuss the need for greater equity and accessibility in vaccinations."Fox News pundit Guy Benson replied: "No, it must not." And others, including Bret Hume from the same network wrote: "Shouldn’t the priority be those most vulnerable to severe illness and even death from COVID?"
As mentioned, the Left only follows "the science" when the science suits their agenda. When Rochelle Walensky, the head of the Centers for Disease Control, initially said that kids and teachers could return to the classroom, the Left in concert with the Teacher's Unions pressured her to change her opinion and told the American public that we might have to wait until, like forever, or at least until the return of Hale-Bopp in 4385 on its regular journey around the Sun.
In December, a panel of CDC "experts" debated whether essential workers should get the vaccine before the elderly in their official recommendation. They ultimately recommended those over age 75 and frontline essential workers be included in Phase 1b.
In an effort to speed up the vaccination process off to a slow start in most states, the federal government on Jan. 12 encouraged all states to begin vaccinating residents 65 and older, along with those with underlying conditions.
Skin color or immigration status was not an issue with "the science."
The one thing we have learned from this pandemic is that our Congress is mostly comprised of non essential personnel as witnessed in their focus on the second impeachment of Donald J. Trump rather than on working to defeat the coronavirus.
