A two-minute remix-style video set to Hall of the Mountain King that mocks Anthony Fauci's Covid pandemic statements. It circulated widely among vaccine and mandate skeptics.

Cited as an example of the viral anti-establishment Covid videos shared in those circles, rather than as a recommendation.

They absolutely do. Especially now that two years later the veterinary was right and the epidemiologist wasn't. A short video that sums up that last three years of scientism by the establishment: ▶ this video

> I don't believe any court of law The U.S. Supreme Court ruled against OSHA mandates. Amorphous "protection" is not the same as the historical gold standard of "sterilizing immunity". No one claimed that historical immunity of prior vaccines was 100%, but it was close enough to stop infections and transmissions, unlike the current Covid-19 injections which do not -- and decline even further in efficacy on a monthly basis. vaccine efficacy over time: ▶ this video

"We must be aware that even triple-vaccinated are likely to transmit the disease…It is obvious we are far from 95 per cent effectiveness that we obtained against the initial virus."

> efficacy of 63.09% against symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection This sentence means the vaccine prevents symptoms , as stated on the CDC website. This sentence does not mean the vaccine prevents infection, no matter how much someone wants that to be true. Recovery from Covid prevented infection in 99% of 5 million UK people. People who are pre-symptomatic or asymptomatically infected, especially with Delta, are extremely contagious and thus dangerous to other people. For this reason, the CDC recommends testing of vaccinated people after exposure, since the vaccine suppresses symptoms that would otherwise cause people to self-isolate, link > Based on evolving evidence, CDC recommends fully vaccinated people get tested 5-7 days after close contact with a person with suspected or confirmed COVID-19. In other words, vaccinated+infected+asymptomatic people are much more infectious and dangerous than Covid-recovered people. > What does "swept" mean? It means a 2020 graph like this one for New York, with a city-wide density of cases that is much higher than other parts of the USA in a comparable timeframe, link Logic dictates that essential workers who were serving the public would have faced the highest risk of exposure. If people in a high-risk subset of 2020 workers, in one of the highest-risk cities in the USA were not infected with Covid in 2020, why would they be infected in 2021 when overall rates of infection are dramatically lower? Either they got infected in 2020 and the

You know who doesn't try to hide this stuff from people? Bad actors. Conspiracy theorists, scammers, straight up liars. So you've got on one hand "the experts" who are being vague and seemingly not wanting to tell you anything, and then on the other hand you've got the crazies who will tell you whatever you want to hear. It's something that is increasingly frustrating me about the vaccines. The vaccines have become a political battle. You've got the president saying absolutely ridiculous things like "we are losing our patience with the unvaccinated". I got phone calls immediately after that speech from my conservative friends and family members pissed off at me (who is on a different political quadrant than they are), wanting to know if I was "losing my patience" with them, and explaining how they are NEVER going to take the vaccine. How they now see this as an important idealogical battle that they want to win. Conservatives are sharing videos like this one: ▶ this video Where it's Dr. Fauci starting off saying "The vaccine is 100% safe and 100% effective!" (a lie, obviously), and as the video continues that number goes down and down and down. It was the same last year when he said that we needed something like 70 or 80% antibody presence to reach herd immunity, but then was quoted in a more private interview saying that was basically a white lie, and that we wouldn't be in the clear until nearly 100%. THAT got shared among the conservative spaces, and basically erased ANY credib
