50% of Floridians Need to Get a COVID Vaccine: Nightmare Inside a Jacksonville, Florida Library Converted To A Covid-19 Treatment Site

 I really, really despise selfish people. Those are the people who have refused to get a vaccine against COVID19, not only to save themselves, but their friends, relatives, neighbors and everyone they come in contact with. Today, news from Jacksonville, Florida is horrendous. COVID19 victims are writhing in pain, shivering, vomiting with horrible aches and more. Don't be Stupid.  GET THE VACCINE or  face the nightmare.  How Many More have to Die?  Here's an abbreviated version of the story:

Nightmare Inside a Jacksonville, Florida Library Converted To A Covid-19 Treatment Site

Mercury News, Sept. 3, 2021 

They SHOULD have been vaccinated. They opted not to, and created a nightmare come to life.

 The scene at the Jacksonville main public library was haunting, Louis Lopez recalled. As he waited for a Covid-19 monoclonal antibody treatment, he saw people so sick they couldn't even stand. "These people were in bad, bad shape," he said.  Libraries are normally places of solitude and silence. On Wednesday, however, Lopez described a persistent sound of crying and pained moans from some of those seeking treatment. One woman in line was so sick that she couldn't even stand, Lopez said. Because she couldn't stand, he said she crawled over to the wall.  "That's when I actually thought, 'This thing, when I read that this thing kills,'" he said. "If you die because of Covid, not only are you going to be alone, you're going to be in a lot of pain. It really illustrated that for me."  Story:  https://www.mercurynews.com/2021/08/20/these-people-were-in-bad-bad-shape-a-look-inside-of-a-florida-library-converted-to-a-covid-19-treatment-site/

Idiots of the Week: Some Hispanic pastors and Catholic Bishops - Call COVID Vaccine "Mark of the Devil"

 The stupidity is astounding. What is it that people don't get about a DEADLY Pandemic?  Over 500,000 Americans have died from COVID19.  But Bishops of the U.S. Catholic Church are telling people NOT to take the Johnson and Johnson vaccine. How uncaring and ignorant. Further, some Hispanic pastors in Miami are being irresponsible about people's health and endangering their congregations and those they associate with. Some pastors are calling COVID19 vaccines the "Mark of the Devil." They are  dangerous. One of these fools is Albert Ixchu, founding pastor of the Iglesia Fraternidad de Fe - the Church of the Brotherhood of Faith. Here are 4 reasons to ponder: 

Here's the news about the Catholic Bishops "CATHOLICS URGED TO SHUN J&J VACCINE" The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops has asked American Catholics to avoid Johnson & Johnson’s new COVID-19 vaccine if possible because researchers used stem cells distantly linked to two abortions decades ago. The bishops’ declaration could affect vaccine distribution, since many churches serve as vaccination centers. 

First, people should listen to doctors and scientists and never listen to religions about science. Throughout history, religions have proven they know nothing about science. Most recently, look at all of the preachers who held in-person church services through COVID19, caught the virus and died. Quite a number of them. 

Second, these pastors are scaring the hell out of people from getting a vaccine or telling them Not to get one.. Vaccines will save their lives and the lives of everyone that comes in contact with them. 

Third, these pastors and Bishops MUST be jailed. They are a danger to the public through stupidity and false information used to scare people and prevent the country from finally getting a stronghold on COVID19.  

Finally, these pastors and Bishops need to walk into a COVID19 hospital ward and get infected themselves. Once they or their loved ones suffer and even pass, then they'll likely stop the stupidity. You would think they would have learned from all of the dead pastors who defied doctors and held in-person church services  when told not to have mass gatherings.  

Here's the short story about the Miami Pastors; The Miami Herald reported on Feb. 11: 

‘Mark of the devil’: Some Hispanic pastors contribute to vaccine skepticism in Miami 

A pastor at a Hispanic church in Homestead raised concerns about the implications of getting vaccinated against COVID-19, warning his congregation about the “mark of the beast” and the specter of a “satanic, totalitarian” government coming to power.

Albert Ixchu, founding pastor of the Iglesia Fraternidad de Fe - the Church of the Brotherhood of Faith - spoke during a Sunday sermon on January 17th, a streamed video of the Spanish-language church service shows.

Ixchu is just one of several pastors in evangelical churches in Miami-Dade County who share their skepticism about the vaccine and continue to minimize the risk of the pandemic, even though the winter months in South Florida have seen cases rise. And some proponents fear that pastor rhetoric - part of a wider trend of misinformation about the vaccine in Latin American churches - could lead to lower vaccination rates.

A former Fraternidad de Fe parishioner who asked to remain anonymous because he has relatives who are heavily involved in the Church told the Herald that the pastor's claims regarding the vaccine will "create some dangerous situations" .

Idiot of the Week; Texas Man Assaults Park Ranger who requested Social Distancing

A screen grab from the video provided to CNN by an eyewitness.

What is with people who scream to reopen the economy, assault police, security guards, medical workers and others and refuse to heed precautions against the deadly COVID19 virus? There's something mentally wrong with these
people. In Michigan on May 4, a Security Guard in a Dollar General store was shot to death for simply asking someone to wear a mask before shopping. In Texas, a 25 year old guy assaulted a Park Ranger and pushed him in a pond or lake, simply because the ranger asked people to spread out to prevent COVID19 transmissions.
Here's the story:


Park ranger was telling a crowd to social distance. Mid-speech, someone pushed him into a lake

(CNN)A man accused of shoving an Austin, Texas, park ranger into the water while the ranger was explaining to a crowd the need for social distancing is embarrassed by his actions, his lawyer said.

A video that gained attention after it was posted on social media includes the moment a young man pushes the ranger into a lake at Commons Ford Ranch Metro Park last Thursday afternoon.
Brandon Hicks, 25, faces a charge of attempted assault on a public servant, a state jail felony, said the Travis County Sheriff's Office.

According to an arrest affidavit, ranger Cassidy Stillwell was talking to a crowd of people, described as "unlawfully drinking and smoking," on a dock near Lake Austin. It's unclear from the affidavit whether Hicks was part of that group mentioned in the affidavit.

Amid the cross talk in the video, Stillwell is heard telling the crowd on the dock to "disperse yourselves" in the grassy area nearby because they were not maintaining physical distance of six feet. Some respond with "Will do" and "I got you, man."

The ranger's instructions are interrupted when the man pushes him into the shallow, murky water. The ranger holds on to the man's arm and pulls him in, the video shows. The man, clad in a swimsuit, scrambles out of the water and rushes away.

Attorney Mark Hull told CNN in a statement Monday he looks forward to telling Hicks' side of the story.

"He is embarrassed about his actions and has the utmost respect for law enforcement, particularly during these unprecedented times," Hull said.

An eyewitness who shot the video said that park visitors were closer to each other than they should have been.

"(The ranger) was just telling us to spread apart to keep our distance and honestly was being super reasonable and understanding," said the witness, who did not want to be named.
The officer who submitted the affidavit said the ranger could have struck his head on the dock as he was falling, "and render himself unconscious in at least 3 feet of water where he could have drowned to death."

Hull says his client is out on $7,500 bond and his next court date is June 19. He said it was too early in the case to determine how Hicks will plea. A person found guilty of a state jail felony faces a sentence of 180 days to two years.

Idiot of the Week; GOP Politician Doesn't Tell Democrats he had COVID19, Only told Republican Colleagues

This week's Idiot is a selfish, hateful Pennsylvania Republican House member who tested positive for COVID19 but didn't tell any Democrats. Basically, he Weaponized a deadly virus that could spread among his rival political party.  
Instead he told Republican leadership and they told some Republican members to self-quarantine. None of them ever informed Democrats. Pennsylvania Democrats learned about it from a reporter One week later on May 28. This FOOL, Rep. Andrew Lewis, R-Dauphin County decided that it was perfectly fine to subject all Democrats and their families, friends and relatives to the virus and possible death from it. TRULY a selfish, miserable idiot. COVID19 is life and death.

Here's the story from Penn Live on May 28, 2020

Pa. House Democrats say keeping GOP colleague’s exposure to COVID-19 private is ‘unacceptable’ 

Updated May 28, 2020; Posted May 27, 2020 By Jan Murphy | jmurphy@pennlive.com/Andrew Lewis :  https://www.pennlive.com

      Rep. Andrew Lewis, R-Dauphin County, disclosed on Wednesday he tested positive for COVID-19 and has self-isolated for 14 days. House Democrats are outraged that they weren't told earlier of Lewis' diagnosis. House Democratic Leader Frank Dermody said he and other House members were shocked to learn that Republican Rep. Andrew Lewis found out he tested positive for COVID-19 on May 20 and they only learned about it on Wednesday. 

 Lewis, 33, said he has completed his 14-day self-isolation dating to the time when the Dauphin County Republican believes he may have been exposed. He said he is now fully recovered from the mild flu-like symptoms he experienced from the coronavirus. 

 “While we are pleased to learn that this House member seems to have recovered, it is simply unacceptable that some House Republicans knew about this for more than a week and sat on that knowledge,” said Dermody of Allegheny County. He said more than a week ago, with several other colleagues self-quarantining this week, no notice was provided to the people working closely with them at the Capitol. 

 “Knowing how House members and staff work closely together at the Capitol, we should have been made aware of this much sooner. We should not have learned of it from a media report,” Dermody said. 

 Two of those self-quarantining are Reps. Russ Diamond and Frank Ryan, both Lebanon County Republicans who regularly have attended House sessions in person rather than voting by proxy as temporary House rules permit. Both lawmakers’ 14-day quarantines will end on Thursday. Neither Diamond nor Ryan said they experienced symptoms. They both used the same words to describe how they were feeling: “I feel like a million bucks.” 

 Dermody said in the last two weeks, House members held six voting session days and more than 15 committee meetings.“For those members who journeyed to the Capitol in person, each of these meetings raises the risk of possible exposure,” he said. “In the last two weeks alone, there were six days of voting sessions here at the Capitol and more than 15 separate meetings of House committees voting on dozens of bills. For those members who journeyed to the Capitol in person, each of these meetings raises the risk of possible exposure."

5 Unsettling Pandemic Things : 100K Died Alone, Pauper's Graves, Ice Rink Morgues, Unmasked Idiots, Dumb Protesters

 Burying unclaimed bodies in a NY mass grave on April 2. Cr: Hart Island project 

There have been a lot of unsettling things about this COVID19 pandemic. There are 5 things that have really troubled me during this worldwide crisis. 
 1) The over 100,000 plus people dying alone in hospitals around the U.S., 

2) The visual I will never be able to purge of NY public workers digging a "Pauper's grave" on Hart Island for over 200 unclaimed bodies of COVID19 victims in NY hospitals.

3)   Locally, in Maryland, there's another: A local ice rink is being used to store dead bodies of COVID19 victims because the morgues are full.

Burying unclaimed COVID19 Dead in April 2020 in NYC

4) Inconsiderate, ignorant, foolish people refusing to wear masks (not only to protect themselves, but others who may be elderly or have compromised immune systems). That's more than unsettling it really angers me that people can be so selfish.

5) The armed, screaming selfish, (dumb anti-science, anti-medicine) protesters who don't wear masks and are threatening governors and others with guns, for keeping non-essential businesses closed.  What's even more appalling is that these groups around the U.S. are being incited by you-know-who in the WH. Disturbing. 
     So, when you get irritated at staying home think about the Giant paupers' grave, the ice rinks housing COVID19 corpses because morgues are full, and the idiotic people "Protesting" how to curb the virus and keep everyone healthy and safe. 
  Here are some of the stories >>>

Idiots- white, uneducated, conservatives, protesting keeping people safe

1) Anti-lockdown protesters gather at the Michigan statehouse
Many speakers, some heavily armed, urged citizens to ignore orders from the governor
DETROIT – Hundreds of protesters, some armed, gathered at Michigan’s state Capitol in Lansing on Thursday objecting to Governor Gretchen Whitmer’s request to extend emergency powers to combat COVID-19, an appeal Republican lawmakers ignored.

The protest appeared to be the largest in the state since April 15, when supporters of President Donald Trump organized thousands of people for “Operation Gridlock,” jamming the streets of Lansing with their cars to call out what they said was the overreach of Whitmer’s strict stay-at-home order.

2) Laurel ice rink is serving as temporary morgue amid coronavirus pandemic, Maryland Gov. Hogan says
Annapolis Capital Gazette, May 7, 2020- Link
The state of Maryland is using an ice rink in Laurel as a temporary morgue to handle a sharp increase in deaths from the coronavirus pandemic, Gov. Larry Hogan said Wednesday.

The Republican governor said he did not know how long the Gardens Ice House, a privately owned facility on Old Gunpowder Road, would be needed to store bodies.

“Hopefully it won’t be for very long,” Hogan said in a news conference in Annapolis. "I was hoping we wouldn’t need it at all, but it is being utilized. I don’t know how long the lease is going to be needed.”

A spokesman for the ice rink could not be reached for comment, and the Prince George’s County Health Department referred questions to state officials.

Idiot of the Week: UK Church Selling Fake Covid-19 cure

The fake COVID19 cure sold for 91 pounds ($115.00 U.S. dollars)! 

This week's Idiot of the Week is a United Kingdom 'church' of some kind that has decided to take advantage of people and sell them a fake cure. The unemployment rate in the UK is high as it is in the U.S., and the church is BILKING people for 91 pounds (114.00 U.S. dollars) for this fake cure. It's despicable. Here's the story:

UK Camberwell church continuing to sell fake Covid-19 cure
BBC NEWS, April 30, 2020 

A church in London has continued selling a fake Covid-19 cure, despite being under investigation by the charity watchdog.

The Charity Commission launched a probe into the Kingdom Church, in south London, earlier this month for selling coronavirus "protection kits".

But instead of stopping the sale, the church renamed the kits and is now selling "divine cleansing oil".

The church said it was "convinced" the oil cured Covid-19.

Bishop Climate Wiseman, of the Kingdom Church which is based in Camberwell, claimed his kits - a bottle of oil and some red yarn, priced at £91  ($115.00 U.S. dollars) - would protect his followers from the virus.

When the story came to light, the Charity Commission, which regulates charities in England and Wales, as well as Trading Standards launched an investigation into the church for selling the fake cure.

But BBC London, posing as a customer this week, found the church was still selling so-called "divine cleansing oil" which it says prevents and cures Covid-19 if taken three times a day.

In secretly-recorded conversations, BBC London was told the oil would work if inhaled via a towel or hot water in a bowl.

An employee of the Kingdom Church said on the phone: "We are helping the nation.

The Kingdom Church in South London selling a fake "COVID19 cure"

"We are convinced this cures coronavirus. We have sold nearly 2,000 of these."

The Charity Commission said it continued to "examine serious concerns about Kingdom Church GB" and was investigating the charity's involvement in the sale of "false Covid-19 protection devices".

Trading Standards are also carrying out an investigation.

Asked whether it was looking into the church, the Metropolitan Police said it was a matter for Trading Standards rather than itself since it involved the sale of goods.

The Charity Commission said it had been liaising with Southwark Council's trading standards department, which in turn confirmed it was investigating the issue.

Southwark Council said there were "many scams relating to Covid-19" and warned consumers should "be on guard for bogus test kits, cures and treatments and other financial scams".

Former Met Police inspector Peter Kirham said: "This is dangerous.

"I can't believe that people are so callous and reckless with personal and public safety - to put this product on the market, with the claims that go with it."
