MICHIGAN GOVERNOR WHITMER SAYS A VACCINE IS NEEDED BEFORE FILLING STADIUMS
Newsweak ^ | 5/16/20 | James Crowley

During a COVID-19 update on Friday, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer reiterated that sports fans won't be able to fill stadiums until a vaccine is available.

In the Friday press conference, Whitmer responded to a reporter's question about what conditions she thought that professional and college sports would be able to return to Michigan.

"I think that we're going to be in a new normal for quite a while," Whitmer said. "We need a vaccine, and we need to have mask quantities available or we need to be able to test and acknowledge that we've got some immunity that's built up. We're not there yet."

**SNIP**

In a statement given to Newsweek, the governor's press secretary, Tiffany Brown, said that stadium reopenings will depend on data and medical experts. "Medical experts have made it clear that COVID-19 spreads when people are in close contact with one another, and without a vaccine, our best strategy in combating the virus is to practice social distancing. In regards to stadiums, our administration will continue to make informed decisions on re-engagement based upon data and medical expertise," she said.

And most certainly once a vaccine may available Adolf Whitmore will next mandate that no one may enter an arena without first proving they received the vaccination. It is the next logical step.

Wouldn’t a recall would be quicker than a vaccine?

A 40% vaccine like the annual Flu vaccine?

She’s not following the Science.

Why is a death from Dr. Fauxcy’s bat virus enhancement lab worse than a death from the “regular” flu?

Why is she not trying to eliminate the regular flu too?

Do the ‘We need a vaccine’ crowd know there have been side effects to them? People have died from vaccines? People who would normally survive COVID, could actually die of this vaccine.

Time for her to step forward, bare her shoulder and skin, and avail herself as a test subject.
Pin cushion time for these elite.

Avid ocean-going cruisers like us probably fear this too.

No boarding a ship without proof of the mark of the beast, aka show your scar or read your embedded chip.
