Dear Fellow Patriot, Did you see my recent weekly column
regarding Joe Biden and his coronavirus taskforce? With all the current threats to your liberty,
you should most certainly care about this. The reality is we face many challenges in the coming
weeks and months. Come late January, we might be under a "100-day mask mandate" as well as a mandatory vaccination scheme.
Be sure to read my important article below and stay tuned for future updates on actions you can take to stop this
dangerous scheme. For Liberty, Dr. Ron Paul, M.D. Chairman
___________________________________ Will Biden Listen to the Science?
Former Vice
President Joe Biden has not been officially declared the winner of the 2020 presidential election, but that has not stopped him from forming a
coronavirus task force. The task force is composed of supporters of increased government control.
One idea Biden and his task force are considering is a four to six weeks nationwide lockdown. However, supporting a nationwide lockdown would violate
Biden’s campaign pledge to “listen to the science.” The evidence regarding lockdowns is so overwhelming that even the World Health
Organization (WHO) has been forced to admit the truth: lockdowns do more harm than good.
Lockdowns result in more instances of depression, suicide, domestic violence, and alcohol and drug abuse. Lockdowns also cause people to not go to
hospitals or doctors’ offices, leading to people dying because they failed to obtain medical assistance in a timely manner.
Biden also is working with governors, mayors, and other state and local officials to create a de facto national mask
mandate. Biden has also declared he will mandate mask wearing in all federal buildings and for people traveling interstate. A mask mandate for
interstate travel could mean you will be required to wear a mask on airplanes, trains, and even when driving in your own car if you cross state
lines. Yet again, Biden is ignoring the science. In this case the science has demonstrated that
most masks are ineffective at preventing the spread of a virus. Medical science also shows that wearing a mask for extended periods of time can cause
health problems. For example, mask wearing interferes with proper breathing. Long-term mask wearing may also cause serious dental problems.
Ironically, major victims of mask mandates include low-wage workers Biden and his fellow progressives claim to care so much about. Many of these
workers are required to wear masks on the job. Biden has also proposed raising an army of
“culturally competent” contact tracers. According to the University of California, San Francisco, which is helping train that
California’s contact tracers, contract tracers “….ask questions related to topics that can be sensitive, including health, work,
living arrangements and food resources” in order to identify someone who should be quarantined. These contract tracers could also be able to
enforce masks or other mandates — including a potential vaccine mandate — by helping ensure that those who refuse to comply are
indefinitely quarantined. Biden is not the only politician pushing authoritarian
“solutions” to coronavirus. The government of Washington, DC is considering authorizing vaccinating of children without parental consent.
This ignores the science that some people will have a negative reaction even to a generally safe vaccine, so individuals should make their own
decision in consultation with their physician. This is especially important these days, as we are dealing with a vaccine that is being rushed into
production for political reasons and that even the manufactures admit will have serious side effects.
Lockdowns, masks, and other
authoritarian measures do little or nothing to promote health. Instead, they erode freedom and create their own health problems. Those who know the
truth must make Joe Biden and other authoritarians listen to the true science. While those more at risk — such as the elderly and people with
certain health problems — could be encouraged to take extra precautions, all Americans should be given back the liberty to make their own
healthcare decisions.
Respect for the Constitution,
the rule of law, individual liberty, sound money, and a constitutional foreign policy constitute the foundation of the Campaign for
