Dear Editor,

COVID is real.

I had it a few months ago. I know of many loved ones in Christ who have died in the last two years from it.

No one in their right mind can think COVID is not real. However, we are now beginning to realize the truth.

Truths like it was most likely man made. There are leading scientists in the world telling us that it looks man made, but we were told the opposite for months.

For 20-plus months, they’ve pushed cloth masks, and billions of dollars have been spent by people and companies to get their families and employees outfitted, only to now be told by the CDC these are not as effective as once believed.

We were told by Fauci that we needed just two weeks back in March of 2020 to “flatten the curve” and then 70% vaccinated. We still have Covid.

At first, we were told that once we are vaccinated, life will go back to normal. Then, you have some protection. Then, you have no protection but it mitigates the symptoms if you do get sick but you can still spread and get COVID. Now we need a booster.

I would advise everyone to look at the studies that are coming out of Israel who are now on advanced booster shots.

John Hopkins University just stated that lockdowns did little if anything to protect us. We shut down everything and we find increases in suicide, alcoholism, and drug use. Small businesses and jobs are destroyed that won’t return. This administration tells us we have added over 6 million jobs.

That’s nice … according to the Brookings Institute we lost over 9 million from February 2020 to February 2021. How many people were forced to walk away from a job because they didn’t want a vaccine they did not trust?

We had alternative medicines that were so vilified by big pharma, government, and the media that a doctor could lose their livelihood if they even spoke of any success. I USED THOSE ALTERNATIVES and I am here typing this letter and those alternatives work if taken early. Let’s not forget the added immunity one obtains naturally. I’m not against vaccinating. If you feel that is the best method for you to survive Covid then take it. I am against not having the right to an alternative protocol if I so desire. This is still America with a Constitution and a Bill of Rights. These documents which we have had since the formation of our country tell us we have a right to look to God and not a ruling class of humans who claim they know what is best for our guidance. That is the arrogance of despotism and totalitarianism. That is the arrogance of the Great Reset. As Winston Churchill once wrote, “Expert knowledge is limited knowledge: and the unlimited ignorance of the plain man who only knows what hurts is a safer guide.” It is time for us as a people to wake up to the moving goalpost of medicine, science, and politics.
