Writes David Spellman

Lew,

I read the email you published from Ginny Garner and it reminded me of yet another incomprehensible dilemma with COVID vaccinations.

There are many notable old people ostensibly getting vaccinated, including the Pope, the Queen of England, Mr. Biden, Hank Aaron, etc. Considering the risks involved, everyone should be wondering how many of these luminaries are actually getting saline injections (whether they know it or not).  Despite the lies, people do know there are risks of adverse reactions that would be horrible PR if they occur in such prominent people.  Like many people, I have serious doubts about whether the Famous are really getting the Jab.  It is truly galling to have them turn around and sanctimoniously condemn me when it is likely they are knowing or unknowing hypocrites taking no risk at all.  Except for Hank Aaron who apparently actually did gamble with his life and as a result probably did a lot more than he intended to protect his people.

But the CDC guidelines say that I should not be vaccinated at all due to my allergies to food and medicine that risk anaphylaxis.  I am waiting to see how well that protects me from a medical death sentence in the near future.  I expect to have to confront the prospect of not being able to buy or sell or travel or work unless I want to die for the privilege.  When free men say “Give me liberty or give me death,” the tyrants always opt for death.
