COVID Restrictions to Remain in Place For Years, Says Public Health Official

Masks and social distancing are the new normal.

Despite the UK’s largely successful rollout of the coronavirus vaccine, a public health official says masks and other social distancing restrictions are likely to remain in place for years because the public has become used to them.

Mary Ramsay, the head of immunisation at Public Health England, said the measures would remain in place while other countries complete their vaccination programs, a process likely to take years.

“People have got used to those lower-level restrictions now, and people can live with them, and the economy can still go on with those less severe restrictions in place,” said Ramsay.

“So I think certainly for a few years, at least until other parts of the world are as well vaccinated as we are, and the numbers have come down everywhere, that is when we may be able to go very gradually back to a more normal situation,” she added.

The doctor said that so long as people continue to be infected, the rules won’t be abolished.

Ramsay’s comments once again highlight the fact that the plan never was to get “back to normal.”

Now that Brits have allowed society to be permanently deformed, with polls routinely showing vehement support for lockdown and other pandemic rules, things are never going to be the same again.

Having allowed the precedent that the government can put the entire population under de facto house arrest on a whim, look for the policy to be repeated over and over again with different justifications that have nothing to do with COVID-19.

As we highlighted earlier this month, one of those justifications will be man-made global warming, with climate lockdowns set to become a regular reality.

90 Per Cent of Germans Who Haven’t Had the Vaccine Say They Won’t Get It

Vaccine passports harden opposition to getting jabbed, survey finds.

90 per cent of Germans who haven’t taken the COVID-19 vaccine say they won’t get it, with only the remaining 10 per cent saying they will “probably” get it or remaining undecided.

A recent survey carried out by Forsa on behalf of the Ministry for Health found that 65 per cent of Germans say there is “no way” they will get the COVID vaccine over the next two months.

A further 23 per cent said they would “probably not” get the COVID jab in the near future while 2 per cent said they would “definitely not” get the jab at any point.

Out of 3000 respondents, only 10 per cent were still undecided or said they will “probably” get vaccinated in the near future.

According to the Local, the poll results emphasize how, “people who have until now chosen to remain unvaccinated against Covid are unlikely to be convinced.”

The survey contradicts Thomas Mertens from the Standing Vaccinations Committee (STIKO), who claimed that unvaccinated Germans were not “hardliners” but were merely sitting on the fence and could be convinced.

Doesn’t look like it.

Only 5 per cent of respondents said they would get the jab if hospitals were “overwhelmed with patients,” while 89 per cent said it wouldn’t change their mind even if intensive care units reached their capacity.

Emphasizing how vaccine passports actually harden people’s opposition to getting vaccinated, 27 per cent said imposing restrictions on the unvaccinated would make them even more determined not to get jabbed, while only 5 per cent said it would encourage them to get jabbed.

It’s also worth noting that the 10 per cent figure who say they will get the jab or are undecided is probably lower given that some respondents will be telling the pollsters what they think they want to hear, and are actually not planning on getting vaccinated at all.

As we highlighted back in January, German authorities announced that COVID lockdown rulebreakers would be arrested and detained in refugee camps located across the country.

Earlier this summer it was also confirmed that the unvaccinated would be deprived of basic lifestyle activities like visiting cinemas and restaurants.

The editor-in-chief of Germany’s top newspaper Bild shocked some people by apologizing for the news outlet’s fear-driven coverage of COVID, specifically to children who were told “that they were going to murder their grandma.”

A YouGov poll has found that the majority of Americans who consider themselves fully vaccinated are still wearing face masks, even outdoors.

The survey noted that 56 percent of all people, vaccinated or not, still wear masks “always” or “most of the time”.

When split along political lines, the poll found that a whopping 78 percent of Democrats say they wear a mask outside their home, while 55 percent of independents and 35 percent of Republicans claimed they are still wearing masks.

Among those who consider themselves fully vaccinated, 65 percent say they wear a mask outside the home always or most of the time, while just 43 percent of the unvaccinated say they wear the masks.

Among the unvaccinated, 57 percent said they never wear a mask or only do so “some of the time.” 

The survey noted that 48 percent overall believe masks should be mandatory, with 78 percent of Democrats holding that belief, but only 20 percent of Republicans doing so.

The poll also found that 52 percent of respondents overall are “worried” that the vaccine doesn’t work, incorporating 17 percent who are “very” worried.

Only around a third said they are “not worried.”  

Among the fully vaccinated, 57 percent said they are worried about the efficacy of the jab waning over time.

The findings come at the same time as revelations that Florida, which never put a mask mandate in place, now has is the lowest daily average of COVID cases in the country.

    Danish Health Minister Threatens to “Shut Down Society” if More People Don’t Get Vaccinated

    Opposition calls announcement a “completely wild message.”

    The Danish health minister is threatening to “shut down society” if more people don’t get vaccinated after the country experienced a COVID spike despite over 75 per cent of the population being fully vaccinated.

    As we highlighted on Monday, Denmark just suffered its worse COVID case load since May, while the virus reproduction (R number) also jumped to 2.01, which is the highest level since January.

    Over 75 per cent of Denmark’s 5.8 million inhabitants have been fully vaccinated.

    Despite the fact that 85 per cent of people over the age of 12 are vaccinated, Denmark has seen more than 1,000 daily cases of COVID for a week straight.

    Now authorities are threatening to “shut down society,” according to opposition party health spokesman Martin Geertsen, if more Danes don’t take the shot.

    “If we are to keep Denmark open, we must have more people get the vaccine,” said Health Minister Magnus Heunicke

    Although Heunicke said the vaccine would remain voluntary, he ominously warned the unvaccinated that their refusal to get the jab “no longer works.”

    Geertsen said the government was breaking its promise to eliminate lockdowns once a high proportion of the population had been vaccinated, adding that Heunicke was sending a “completely wild message.”

    Last year, Danish authorities tried to pass a law that would have allowed the forced vaccination of anyone, with police being used to physically detain people and hold them down while being jabbed, but the effort was abandoned after mass protests.
