thread claiming that once it became clear that coveted was not in fact a pagan god visiting vengeance on the unwashed trump voters alone the media and democrats are now willing to admit the following and went on to list various assertions such as the death rate is comparable to the flu and we have to take into account societal needs not just spread prevention and we should not shut down society she apparently shapiro triumphantly concluded that omicron had vindicated those of us who quote have been saying all this for months and most of it since may NUMBER_TOKEN. we chose data and freedom you chose alarmism and unearned moral superiority now the reason that i said in the tweet thread that many of us have been saying this for months and most of it since may NUMBER_TOKEN is because not all of it applied in may NUMBER_TOKEN right it did not have the death rate of the flu in may NUMBER_TOKEN. it does have the death rate of the flu once you are vaccinated and omicron seems to have about the death rate of the flu generally right somewhere in that neighborhood but says max boot this is nonsense on stilts it would be more accurate to say that shapiro and company chose populist ideology while the rest of us chose science it takes only minimal scientific literacy after all to realize that two very different versions of the same disease call for two very different responses okay so he's just building a straw man here and then burning it he says one of the main reasons that people haven't gotten vaccinated in worn mask regularly is so many people are listening to right-wing agitators like ben shapiro who champion a misguided idea of medical freedom shapiro's media company the daily wire even sued to stop president biden's well-warranted vaccination mandate for companies with more than a hundred employees okay so in other words i'm bad because even though i recommended vaccinations have said that everyone who's an adult in my family has been backs multiple times my wife's been boosted my parents have been boosted i've been vast that doesn't matter according to max boot because after all i'm not embracing the craziest version of his reality by the way what does he actually recommend max boot he says our original alarm was not unwarranted we need more masks and vaccine mandates including a vaccination requirement for domestic air travel okay so he says he's pro data no you're not you're not pro show me show me the necessity for vaccination requirements for domestic air travel one iota of data this is either necessary or that it will be effective show me that it will be effective in preventing spread and transmission show me show me also why you get to decide for somebody else whether they need to get vaccinated when this thing is still widely transmissible and you are not preventing the transmission by by getting you're not obliviating transmission by getting the facts explain the bottom line is some people are wedded to the panic and they will never stop the panic because the panic makes them feel moral and better about themselves now in reality there are those of us who continue to live in freedom so to my home state of florida ron desantis continues to be a NUMBER_TOKEN leading contender because the left cannot stop itself they just cannot stop themselves after joe biden fled washington dc to delaware after announcing that
