Auburn University offers scholarships, other incentives to promote COVID vaccine

Auburn University is offering students a chance at winning a variety of prizes – including a $1,000 scholarship, an unlimited meal plan, and a premium parking pass – if they get fully vaccinated against COVID-19 in time for the fast-approaching fall semester.

The new incentive program comes as Alabama struggles to get people inoculated against COVID-19, with just 40.1% of the state’s population aged 12 and older fully vaccinated, the lowest rate in the nation, according to CDC data.

Auburn is also offering student organizations the chance to win prizes if all of their members are vaccinated, such as custom Under Armour apparel, custom Yeti cups and coolers, catered food trucks, and free spray tans.

Not surprising at all.

Indoctrination Centers ( aka “ universities “ ) are smitten with stupidity.

It’s such a great vaccine that bribes are necessary.

Our “betters” are selling this vaccine way too hard. When you consider the low mortality rate of COVID, the blatant lies of politicians and the media, the horrific censorship, and the threats - you just have to conclude that it is suspect.

Any young and healthy person that allows these maniacal freaks pump this “vaccine” into them is crazy. This administration has lost whatever little trust the American people had for it.

AU is also throwing in a B.A. in Lesbian Dance Theory and a one-year membership to Antifa.

This is not a vaccine. The mRNA jab is a package in a nano lipid or fat envelope delivered to a cell. It’s a medical device designed to stimulate a cell into becoming a pathogen creator by creating the known to be harmful spike protein.

Vaccine is a defined term in law and under CDC and FDA standards. A vaccine has to stimulate an immunity in the person receiving it. And it must also disrupt transmission. That’s not what this is. Even the drug manufacturers admit the jab or its mRNA does not stop transmission.

The jab is a treatment, but if it’s discussed as a treatment it would not get the sympathetic ear of public health officials because people would ask what other treatments there are.

Defining the narrative with the term vaccine is a sucker punch to open and free discuss discourse. “Vaccine” throws the discussion into one of pro/con vaccine. The jab is a mechanical device in the form of a very small packet of technology inserted into the human system to activate the cell to become a pathogen manufacturing site.

No basis exists to stipulate this is a vaccine. Simply put, this is a chemical pathogen device meant to unleash chemical pathogen production within a cell. It’s a medical device (a bio-weapon), not a drug. The jab is not a living or biological system, but rather a physical technology that just happens to come in the size of a molecular package.

disgusting they would stoop so low as to offer scholarship in exchange for crap shot that could kill or severely harm the recipient.

Very disappointed in my Alma Mater . . .

Any time bribery is used, I’m suspicious. Instead, they should do an educational seminar on what it is and how it works, then host a debate by pro and con teams. It should be an educational event.

I think the “vaccine” crowd is afraid the “science” will unravel under scrutiny.

I love Auburn. AU has great students who are mostly conservative but far from being activists or even politically-minded. The admin and faculty are overwhelmingly Leftists.

There are every manner of woke activist groups on campus. They support LGBTQP everything. They even have a group that fights “Period Poverty” and shames America for not believing menstrual issues are a good topic for discussions. They shame America for not providing free feminine hygiene products. They are unaware that in the USSR when Valentina Tereshkova became the first woman in space over 99 percent of Soviet women cut cloth to make their own hygiene products. The same was true two decades later when Svetlana Savitskaya became the first woman to make a space walk. Yet all of the Period Poverty movement has an anti-American bent.

There is a poster in Thatch Hall in the History Department hallway that decried the “standard sexuality” of the 1950s and laments the fear of communism of that era.

It is not surprising that Auburn flashes messages on campus with United Rental highway signs to further browbeat the students into constant mask wearing. And this latest bribery to get a dubious shot is more-of-the-same from Auburn’s admin.
