I'm in NY. Wonder how other NURSES are feeling about mandatory COVID vaccination?

Yeah the danger was being down played by many on the media especially trumps corona virus advisor Anthony Fauci when we should have been preparing as a nation. The CDC really has one job and that is to prepare and prevent for outbreaks of disease. Like Dr. Martenson said the CDC and WHO really did drop the ball on not recognizing this as a dangerous pandemic early on. I think many countries were more concerned about the economic hit from lockdowns than the pandemic itself.

Dr Fauci is a common scapegoat in many conservative circles. When we should have been preparing as a nation, how was our political leadership preparing us?

Fauci has drawn heat to his credibility from people along all sides of the political spectrum and for good reason. I am not defending Trump in regards to the decisions he made early on in the pandemic. He made the same mistake that many countries made. They choose to downplay the pandemic to keep the economy going. What he did get right was operation warp speed for producing the vaccines that you wish to be mandated.

But you are happy to scapegoat the scientist.

So you contributed to the panic buying and are now claiming "science" made you do it? What part of this "science" lead you to believe that a viral respiratory disease would require an increased use of toilet paper?

You do understand that these wingnuts who attend meetings and sing and "rap" and shout out nonsense are seen as borderline psychotic by the rest of the world don't you?
We look at the USA and think, "well you had a great 20th century but now you are definitely having a major breakdown in the 21st."

Fauci's prediction in 2016! We were warned early. He predicted hundreds of thousands of deaths, the evolution of variants if we didn't vaccinate, the strain on hospitals, etc. Albeit, those warnings didn't come until later but the government chose to ignore the 2016 warning and ignore the previous plan set in place. They ignored it for 4 solid years.

Can you send me an example of when MSM said Covid was just the flu? I'm unable to find citation for this.

Ah, revisionist history. In reality president Trump himself down played the severity of corona virus and admitted it.
Quote "President Trump admitted to Washington Post reporter Bob Woodward in early February that he knew the coronavirus was "more deadly than even your strenuous flu," but the president continued to compare Covid-19 to the flu for weeks following his conversation with Woodward, claiming he "wanted to always play it down."
