Medical Tyranny in Chicago Leaps Forward

by Stephen Lendman

The price of a restaurant meal, spirits, workouts and public entertainment jumped exponentially in Chicago.

Effective January 3, Mayor Lori Lightfoot's Public Order 2021-2 advanced medical tyranny in the city.

Her newly announced mandate has nothing to do with protecting public health, everything to do with irreversibly destroying it.

Straightaway after the new year's holiday weekend, city residents aged-5 and older must show proof of being fully-jabbed for protection against what flu/covid jabs don't provide.

It's required "to dine indoors, visit gyms, or enjoy entertainment venues where food or drink are served."

Specifically, the order applies to "(e)stablishments where food or beverages are served, including, but not limited to, restaurants, bars, fast food establishments, coffee shops, tasting rooms, cafeterias, food courts, dining areas of grocery stores, breweries, wineries, distilleries, banquet halls, and hotel ballrooms." 

The mandate also applies to "(g)yms and fitness venues, including, but not limited to, gyms, recreation facilities, fitness centers, yoga, Pilates, cycling, barre, and dance studios, hotel gyms, boxing and kickboxing gyms, fitness boot camps, and other facilities used for conducting indoor group fitness classes."

It applies to "(i)ndoor entertainment and recreation venues where food or beverages are served."

The above settings include but aren't "limited to, movie theaters, music and concert venues, live performance venues, adult entertainment venues, commercial event and party venues, sports arenas, performing arts theaters, bowling alleys, arcades, card rooms, family entertainment centers, play areas, pool and billiard halls, and other recreational game centers."

For Chicagoans aged-16 and older, a valid photo ID, jab card, a photocopy of the card, or a printed record from a jab provider is required for entry to any of the above facilities.

For businesses covered by the city's mass-jabbing policy, employers and establishments must check the jabbing status of everyone aged-5 and older on their premises.

No one is allowed entry without proof of being fully jabbed — unless have a valid exemption.

Employers and business establishment that fail to comply with the above mandate will be fined.

Masking that doesn't protect and risks respiratory harm is also required in all public indoor venues.

Defying science, international and constitutional law, Lightfoot falsely said she's "leav(ing) no options off the table when it comes to protecting the safety of our residents (sic)" — irreparably harmed by toxic jabs. 

Claiming "no choice" other than what she ordered turned truth on its head.

If more Chicagoans are jabbed and multi-jabbed to comply with her mandate, flu/covid outbreaks will be infinitely greater than if no one in the city allowed toxins to be jabbed into their bodies.

Will more extreme measures than the above be imposed?

Her anti-public health commissioner Allison Arwady said the "answer lies with the un(jabbed) (sic)."

Future city policy depends on "whether or not they stop being hesitant and get" jabbed (sic), falsely adding:

Most all Chicagoans know someone diagnosed with flu/covid "because (we're) in the middle of the biggest (outbreak) surge (sic)."'

The vast majority of individuals declared infected with flu/covid are well, not ill — because claimed outbreaks are based on PCR test results that when positive are nearly always false, what Arwady left unexplained.

Exceptions to the new anti-public health mandate include houses of worship, grocery stores without indoor dining sections, restaurants and bars at O'Hare and Midway airports, as well as soup kitchens, charitable food services, schools and day care centers.

New city mandates will more greatly harm public health than already — while doing nothing to protect it.

They're also an incentive to stay away from where toxic jabs are required.

Protecting health demands shunning them. City policy is going the other way.

Last spring I lamented that Chicago where I live is no longer Frank Sinatra once called "my kind of town."

Nor are most other US states and cities nationwide.

Medical tyranny made them unsafe and unfit to live in — based on anti-science, the real thing ignored.

A Final Comment

In response to mayor Lightfoot's heavyhanded mandate, management of my residential building defied science as follows, falsely saying:

"Scientific data (sic) shows that those who are fully (jabbed) and have received their booster are better protected to fight the disease (sic), but the latest (more scariant than) variant is extremely contagious (sic), and we need to do everything we can to guard against spread (sic)."

The above rubbish is pseudo-science, not the real thing.

The emailed message to residents added that masking is required in common areas — ignoring that they don't protect and risk respiratory harm.

Residents "should continue practicing…social distancing in common areas" — despite no scientific evidence that shows it helps protect health.

Residents were also told to "ask…permission before joining anyone on an elevator (sic)…" 

Any resident (PCR) testing positive — that's nearly always false — must notify the management office and self-quarantine for 14 days, even if asymptomatic and healthy.

All of the above and much more reflects the deplorable state of today's brave new world that's unsafe and unfit to live in.

What's going on is all about destroying health and what remains of fundamental freedoms.

My constitutional rights are even breached where I've lived for over half a century.

Despite doing nothing to harm the health, well-being and rights of other building residents — or anyone outside it — I and others in the city and my building are ordered to follow practices that cause harm and don't protect.
