It has been said that the Federal COVID public health emergency will end precisely on May 11, 2023.
I guess that means Hooray!!!
Does anyone else find it odd how a medical “emergency” has a scheduled ending 3+ months in the future?
Sounds like true science to me?
May I ask how we know when a medical “emergency” will end?
At a specified date?
The thing about emergencies are we don’t know when they will begin or end as they are usually due to unforeseen events out of our control. As we rarely know how long it will take to get control back, how do we preplan any specific date or time to “end” the emergency?
Sounds like true science to me?
Is this announcement to end the COVID emergency more about government public health overreach and to give the government time to try and fix/correct/change course on all they have done over the past 3 years?
It also gives all the government organizations and the public health arena time to prepare to be removed from the “free” government money that has been given out to battle COVID. I know I know. It’s not the governments money. It is all of ours and comes from our taxes. But we elect people to determine how our money gets spent. Ask yourself if you think the government has spent your $$ wisely during COVID and whether you would have done anything different if you were in charge.
So is the removal of the emergency declaration more of a $$ and political issue than true medical or true science?
Whether you agree or disagree with the goings on these past 3 years of COVID, should we ask if this has been an exercise in government overreach of health and medical authority?
The past three years have shown what can happen when we allow the government to be in control of our health and healthcare. 15 days to slow the spread will have lasted over 3 years. Math majors please check my math but it comes out to just over 1150 days to “slow the spread”. That’s almost 77X longer than first proposed. How’d that work out for you and everyone else?
In reality this may go down as probably one of the shortest government programs, but also probably the most expensive. Seriously, have you ever heard of a government program ending??
Consider asking yourselves if you want the government acting like our parents and bosses and pressuring, forcing, coercing or mandating medical treatments.
As always, the decision of how to think and what to believe is always yours. Don’t let anyone or any organization sway you, including me.
You be you.
Just try your best to avoid any preconceived bias when it concerns your health.

He who says the state is God, deifies arms and prisons. The worship of the state is the worship of force. There is no more dangerous menace to civilisation than a government of incompetent, corrupt, or vile men. The worst evils that mankind ever had to endure were inflicted by bad governments. The state can be and has often been in the course of history the main source of mischief and disaster.
"Consider asking yourselves if you want the government acting like our parents and bosses and pressuring, forcing, coercing or mandating medical treatments."
Consenting to any government in the first place is essentially requesting to be parented by a make-believe higher power. Nobody should ever be surprised when this is where that monopoly on violence gets everyone.
Just follow the “science “🙃
