Federal officials have convinced themselves that they have the right to dictate when you can and cannot see your family. Hence, why the White House’s coronavirus czar, Dr. Anthony Fauci, is acting as though people need his permission to celebrate the holidays with their loved ones.
“There’s no reason at all why you can’t enjoy the holidays in a family way,” Fauci said recently, adding that his permission really only applies to fully vaccinated people.
“I believe strongly that, particularly in the vaccinated people, if you’re vaccinated and your family members are vaccinated, those who are eligible — that is, obviously, very young children are not yet eligible — that you can enjoy the holidays,” he continued. “You can enjoy Halloween, trick-or-treating, and certainly Thanksgiving with your family and Christmas with your family.”
As if on cue, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention joined it with its holiday guidance a few days later. Families should only get together with members of their immediate household, the agency said, or, if absolutely necessary, “Have an outdoor celebration with everyone at least 6 feet apart.”
The CDC likely realized that not one person is going to eat Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner outside when nearly half the country is covered in snow, so it added an indoor option: “If celebrating indoors, bring in fresh air by opening windows and doors, if possible. You can use a window fan in one of the open windows to blow air out of the window. This will pull fresh air in through the other open windows.”
At this point, there are only a few people who care about what Fauci and the CDC think about this year’s holiday plans, and they include Fauci, CDC Director Rochelle Walensky, and a couple of leftist journalists who only say they care to keep up pretenses. There’s a good chance Fauci doesn’t actually care either. It’s possible he just likes to hear himself talk.
