NYC Vax Mandate on City Workers Ends: “It Was A Punishment And They Weren’t Given Due Process”

On Friday, February 10, 2023 the covid vaccine will be optional for city workers. It will no longer be a requirement to work for the city. Also, public school buildings will no longer be checking vax papers, so unvaccinated parents can now attend school plays and parent-teacher conferences in person.

This does not mean that the 1,780 workers who were fired for refusing to submit proof of vaccination will just go back to work. It means they have to re-apply to their former agencies for a job, and hopefully a job will still be there. And, they are not entitled to any backpay.

James McCarthy, President of the Uniformed Fire Officers Association said, “We’re suing to have back pay for all the members that were put on leave without pay. One of the litigations is that it was illegal. It was a punishment and they weren’t given due process.”

Other Unions such as the Detectives Endowment Association (DEA) and the Police Benevolent Association (PBA) have vowed to sue for members’ backpay.

The PBA already won a lawsuit on behalf the entire union last September. The judge on that case ruled that that mandate was “invalid” and that all PBA members who were suspended or lost jobs due to the mandate be “reinstated to the status they were as of the date of the wrongful action.” The city appealed that decision.

This ruling is similar to a judge’s ruling last October, which stated that 16 DSNY workers were unjustly and illegally fired by the city, and that the workers should be reinstated to their jobs immediately with backpay. The city appealed that ruling also.

What the Mayor has done is lift a mandate. He is not guaranteeing these people jobs with the city again, never mind reinstating them to the status they were prior to termination. They are like any other joe blow off the street looking for a job. They just don’t need the jab now to apply.

The Mayor said city workers stepped up through the pandemic, and that we owe them a debt of gratitude. Then he said that with 96% of city workers having been vaccinated, this is the “right moment for this decision. I continue to urge every New Yorker to get vaccinated, get boosted, and take the necessary steps to protect themselves and those around them from Covid-19.”

Why is the Mayor continuing to push and advocate for this vaccine? He isn’t a doctor and we don’t need his opinion.

He is clearly unaware that there is a massive push now for an acknowledgement that these vaccines not only aren’t effective, they have caused physical harm and death.

The FDA even states on its own website that “the scientific community does not yet know if the Pfizer-BioNTech Covid-19 Vaccine will reduce transmission.” “Real life” has shown us IT DOES NOT. There are far more covid cases now that there were at the “height of the pandemic.”

A group called the Coalition Advocating for Adequately Labeled Medicines has sent a petition to the FDA stating that basically, there isn’t enough information and data to assert that these shots prevent transmission OR death. They want the labeling on the shots to say this, and also for the “adverse event section” of the labeling to include “sudden cardiac death, pulmonary embolism and decreased sperm concentration.”

But do we really need this panel of experts to tell us that? Doesn’t common sense tell us that any medication requires the test of time to know just HOW well they work and what all the side effects are? Obviously, deciding to trust this vaccine was a personal decision that should have remained private. How could ANYONE push these shots on anyone, much less make a person’s ENTIRE CAREER conditional upon taking them?

“YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELVES”

NY Judge Rules Vax Mandate on Healthcare Workers Null & Void, Arbitrary and “Orwellian”

In 2021, NY Healthcare Workers were fired from their jobs if they declined a covid-19 vaccine.

A group of healthcare workers under the banner of Medical Professionals for Informed Consent (the Petitioners) sued NYS Health Commissioner and Governor Kathy Hochul (the Respondents). These doctors and healthcare workers stated that Hochul overstepped her authority and the Mandate should be null and void.

On January 13, 2023 the Judge overseeing their case agreed. The Vaccine Mandate on NY Healthcare workers is now null and void. Everyone who was fired should go back to work. But Hochul and friends are appealing the ruling. What else would you expect from a woman who wears a necklace that says “Vaxed” and said God wants everyone vaccinated?

Judge Gerard J. Neri wrote in his ruling that the Governor and Commissioner issued a Mandate that was beyond their authority. That they ignored and overrode existing Public Health Law, and that the Separation of Powers was not upheld. Basically, the government behaved illegally, but few in the Media took note of this dangerous behavior.

Luckily, the Judge took note of it. He ruled that the Mandate was arbitrary, as “arbitrary action is taken without sound basis in reason and is generally taken without regard to the facts.”

Judge Neri went on to write “that the Mandate was entitled, “Prevention of Covid-19 transmission by covered entities.” In true Orwellian fashion, the Respondents acknowledge then-current Covid-19 shots do not prevent transmission.”

The Judge even went on to discuss the meaning of the phrase, “fully vaccinated” in his Ruling, describing it as absurd: “A term which is defined at the whim of an entity, subject to change without a moment’s notice contains all the hallmarks of absurdity, and is no definition at all.” Therefore, he found “the Mandate arbitrary and capricious.”

This Supreme Court Judge ruled that the Governor and Commissioner are “prohibited from implementing or enforcing the Mandate.”

New York State mandated a booster last January on healthcare workers but there was so much resistance to it, the mandate was scrapped after a few months. They had already lost too many workers to the original mandate and couldn’t afford to lose any more. From syracuse.com:

“Some hospital workers have already resigned over the booster mandate and want to move to states without booster mandates, said Gary Fitzgerald, president of the Iroquois Healthcare Alliance, a group that represents Upstate hospitals.

“Workers are tired and fed up,” Fitzgerald said. “They’re asking, ‘What’s going to happen next? Is the state going to mandate another booster? When will it stop?””

Even though a New York Supreme Court Judge now prohibits the Mandate (and totally trashed the supposed rationale behind it), Kathy Hochul is not letting go. She is “exploring her options.”

Unvaccinated Parents Cannot Enter NYC Public School Buildings

Covid mandates and restrictions are not over in New York City.

A few facts:

  1. All City Workers–including public school teachers–are required to be vaccinated with a covid vaccine. But workers in the private sector don’t have to be vaccinated (after being mandated for most of 2021).
  2. Public school students ARE NOT required to be vaccinated.
  3. All visitors to public schools over the age of 18 are required to show proof of vaccination, with photo ID, in order to enter the building.
  4. This means unvaccinated parents cannot enter a school to see their unvaccinated child in a school play or attend any indoor events. They cannot go inside the building to see their child’s classroom and meet the teacher in person. They can’t attend kindergarten graduations, even if held outdoors. They can’t go inside to get their child if the child becomes unwell at school and needs to go home.

How do I know this is happening? Because this unvaccinated NYC parent discussed it here.

This “rule” is strictly enforced, and all the vaccinated parents are going along with it.

Oh, hang on. The unvaccinated parent referenced above was “allowed” to attend a toy drive event inside the school, but only if she entered through a different door than the other parents.

Huh. Have we been here before?

QUICK REMINDER: NO CHILDREN IN THE SCHOOL ARE REQUIRED TO BE VACCINATED.

QUICK REMINDER: The vaccine does not stop transmission of the virus, it was never even tested for transmissibility. The inability of the vaccine to prevent you from “catching covid” is completely acknowledged by everyone, including the CDC.

Unvaccinated NYC parents can go shopping, go to the doctors office, enter packed stadiums and fly on airplanes. But they can’t enter a NYC public school they support with their tax dollars to see their unvaccinated child in a school play or attend a Scholastic Book Fair with the other parents.

None of this is about a virus or about anyone’s health. This is about brainwashed people propping up a Sacred Vaccine Cow narrative at all costs, even to the point of making an unvaccinated person USE A DIFFERENT DOOR TO ENTER A BUILDING, IF THEY ARE ALLOWED IN AT ALL.

Unbelievable.

It’s 2023. Is anyone in NYC TIRED OF THIS SHIT YET?

Tim Robbins Gives The Gift of Critical Thinking and True Compassion

I came across this clip of an interview of actor Tim Robbins by Russell Brand on Richard’s TruthAboutCovid blog today.

It is so powerful, and in some ways mirrors my own awakening.

While I was never angry at anyone for protesting Covid lock-downs in 2020, like Tim I was also passively accepting what I was told and going along with the program. It wasn’t until Trump began talking about Warp Speed Vaccines that I became very unsettled. It wasn’t because of Trump; it was some inner alarm bell that transcended Party and spoke to something deeper.

By the end of 2020, I became aware that Covid was a disease that could be effectively treated with existing and inexpensive drugs and protocols. And that this effort was (and continues to be) brutally suppressed. I recommend this incredible article written in May 2021 by award-winning journalist Michael Capuzzo called The Drug That Cracked Covid. It is a true piece of investigative journalism that blows this whole early and effective treatment DENIALISM wide open. If you don’t have time to read the whole thing, read the short preface to Capuzzo’s article, wherein it dawns on him that yes, there is a serious effort to deny and undermine early treatment of covid by the Media. It is called The Story of the Cover Story.

Capuzzo’s piece profiles the doctors of the Covid19CriticalCare Alliance. But there were thousands of other doctors across the country finding out how to treat the respiratory and vascular symptoms of Covid with existing drugs.

For example, Overcoming The Covid Darkness: How Two Doctors Successfully Treated 7,000 Patients by Dr. George Fareed and Dr. Brian Tyson details, with plenty of science-driven data and patient testimony, how these doctors saved thousands with their HCQ treatment protocol. (Dr. Fareed is a Harvard Medical School graduate, former NIH scientist and family doctor of 30 years and has been honored for his work treating covid patients).

This particular knowledge was a major turning point in my rejecting the Sacred Vaccine Cow narrative. How could I support this grand, billion dollar venture, knowing that so many people lost their lives because we were basically told by The Government there was “nothing to be done” for covid sufferers, except sedate them, put them on a ventilator (ensuring almost certain death) and wait for a vaccine? A vaccine that doesn’t even stop you from getting Covid! (Although back in 2021 we were told it would, and if vaccinated you’d never have to mask again).

Tim doesn’t speak about early treatment in this clip. But he had plenty of other “something is not right” moments over the past few years.

Like Tim, I also questioned the Orwellian way the CDC was changing the basic definitions of words and concepts, such as “vaccines” and “immunity” in order to fit an agenda (vaccines in every arm, at all costs, even at the cost of telling the truth).

Like Tim, I also was shocked by the cruel and frankly deranged way the Media and Government encouraged citizens to “turn the unvaccinated into pariahs” and actively hate on and deny equal treatment to fellow citizens who chose not to be vaccinated with a Covid “Vaccine” (and how many went along with it). And that to some, it is STILL acceptable to treat unvaccinated people differently than vaccinated people. This, even though it is beyond obvious (and acknowledged for over a year now by the CDC) that both the vaccinated and unvaccinated can transmit the virus and should not be treated differently.

If you have the time, please listen to this 11 minute clip of Tim Robbins’ very thoughtful exploration into his own Mind and personal Awakening.

Kathy Hochul, Masterful Covid Denier

Tomorrow, New Yorkers will vote for their next Governor. Will it be the incumbent Democrat Kathy Hochul, or Republican challenger Lee Zeldin?

The two candidates engaged in a debate on October 25. Here are excerpts from that debate:

Lee Zeldin:

Where my opponent just said she will not mandate COVID vaccines at this time, let me be clear to all of the parents who are out there. I will not mandate COVID vaccines for your kids ever. I don’t believe that there should be COVID vaccine mandates right now for our kids at SUNY and CUNY, in community colleges, and elsewhere. Where just over a year ago, a whole bunch of heroes were turning into zeros, tens of thousands of people, because of my opponent’s healthcare worker COVID vaccine [inaudible 00:58:50] put out of a job.

Susan Arbetter (58:50):

What about polio vaccine? Would you-

Lee Zeldin (58:51):

Can I just finish the point? I believe that mandate was wrong, and that everyone who has been fired to be offered their jobs back with back pay. There shouldn’t be any special celebrity COVID vaccine mandates, like what we saw for people who play for the Mets, or the Yankees, or the Nets. If you want to have a special celebrity exemption, how about the NYPD officers? FDNY, teachers, healthcare workers? I do not support COVID vaccine mandates in any way, shape, or form. You want to deal with the healthcare worker shortage upstate in hospitals, having services impacted? Well, then offer the people their jobs back. By the way, do it with back pay.

Susan Arbetter (59:26):

Mr. Zeldin, would you mandate a polio vaccine?

Lee Zeldin (59:31):

Right now, the position of this state is that there’s a polio emergency, and there’s not. I’m not proposing any new changes. Right now, there are vaccine mandates that are out there all across the board, on all different fronts. What I’d specifically say, is that the COVID vaccine mandate is different than the polio vaccine mandate.

(59:52)
The COVID vaccine changed the definition of a vaccine. You could just call it a COVID shot. It’s a form of treatment, but it doesn’t prevent you from getting it. The state hasn’t recognized natural immunity. Why not? It should. We could talk about all these other vaccines. But we’re talking about other vaccines? Actually, when you took it, people were not actually getting polio.

Kathy Hochul (01:00:12):

I’m not sure I understand that one either. But, you’ve been an election denier, a climate change denier. You and Donald Trump were the masterful COVID deniers. We are dealing with a real crisis, and the more people that get vaccinated, get those shots in arms. I would do it all over again, what I did last year, that mandate for healthcare workers. Because no one, after what we went through in this state, and the loss of life, and how people didn’t survive being in a nursing home, I said, our healthcare workers, when you walk into a doctor’s office, a hospital, or nursing home, you shouldn’t contract COVID from the person charged with taking care of you. It was a tough decision. We limited to healthcare workers. But, that is something I believe saved lives.

Huh.

So, Kathy Hochul does not understand:

  1. The difference between injections that stop you from getting a disease (like polio vaccines) and ones that do not (like covid shots)
  2. That the definition of vaccine was quietly changed by the CDC to better conform to the reality that Covid shots do not stop infections
  3. What natural immunity is, although for years even the layperson understood this basic epidemiological concept (immunity to a disease gained post-exposure to that disease). “Natural immunity” was thrown under the bus during the vaccine rollout. But it has been brought forth from the shadows as it is coincidentally the basis for the recently invented concept called “immunity debt.” Immunity debt was invented in 2021 to help explain why, after millions of covid shots, people are sicker than ever.
  4. That it is entirely possible for vaccinated healthcare workers to infect patients because not only can they get Covid, often they are expected to come to work even if they are still testing positive for the disease.

There are quite a few things Kathy seems to “deny” knowing or understanding when it comes to Covid. In fact, I’d call her a real COVID DENIER…..right up there with Donald Trump. A man who so denied Covid, he ordered the creation a vaccine to eradicate it.

Yes. Kathy and Donald. Major Covid Deniers.
