Buzzfeed Holiday Party, With Masking and Vaxing Rules in Place, Is a #SuperSpreader Event

Disclose.tv
@disclosetv
NEW -- Several triple-vaccinated staffers infected with #COVID19 following BuzzFeed's Holiday party in NYC -- with mask rules & vaccination cards entry.

A sophisticated, vaccinated crowd.

Several BuzzFeed staffers have been infected with Covid-19 following the company's Holiday party in Manhattan last week, according to a report from Insider.
Three BuzzFeed employees who tested positive following the party told Insider that they were vaccinated and received their booster shots prior to contracting Covid-19 at the event, and are experiencing mild symptoms.
BuzzFeed has reportedly strengthened Covid-19 protocols following the party and amid a surge of cases in New York City, including putting a temporary freeze on group meetings over six people, requiring masks in the office until further notice, and freezing all non-essential business travel until the new year.
The company is also conducting contact tracing, as well as offering free testing for close contacts.

The rules were strict, but did not stop the #SuperspreaderEvent:

"BuzzFeed requires vaccinations for staffers, and partygoers had to present their vaccination cards to get into the event," Perlberg reported, noting that CEO Jonah Peretti was in attendance. "Two days before the party, BuzzFeed updated its rules to require masks 'unless you are actively eating or drinking.'"

This is a great time to bring up Jake Tapper's Maskless Sweater Party from a few days back.

Jake Tapper just sat three feet away from Amy Klobuchar and asked her -- neither wearing a mask -- if she felt her life were threatened when Ted Cruz spoke to her at Bob Dole's funeral when he spoke to her without a mask. She herself was wearing her mask improperly -- nose out -- and then took it off to talk.

But Tapper, incredibly, demanded to know if she felt that Cruz put her life in danger by speaking to her, a former cancer patient (now fully recovered, she insisted over his protestations that she was still fragile!) by speaking to her without mask.

While, amazingly, asking this question without himself wearing a mask.

The left really believes that, being God's Perfect Avenging Angels on earth, they are divinely immune to disease, so they are free to ignore the health and safety fascism they impose on their political enemies.

But it soon got even worse. Because then Jake Tapper posted pictures of him and his staffers showing off at their Holiday Sweater Party -- with no social distancing and, of course, wearing no masks.

Now, Jake Tapper, like every other NPC on CNN, has been reporting since before Thanksgiving that the Omicron variant is 1, much more infectious than Delta (which was, in turn, much more infectious than alpha, which was much more infectious than almost any other upper respiratory tract virus), and 2, also was probably largely unaffected by the vaccine, due to the large number of mutations in its spike proteins.

Jake Tapper has been reading that from papers other people wrote for him nonstop.

So... why would Jake Tapper believe it's okay to hug his coworkers closely, with no social distancing and no masks? And just claim, "it's okay, we're vaxed?"

Do you not listen to yourself as you blabble out the news written for you by other people? Have you not heard yourself saying, repeatedly, "Scientists fear that Omicron may be largely unaffected by the vaccine"?

Ted Cruz is very confused by Jake Tapper's rapid cycling between states of intense covid fear and gay-hearted covid YOLO-itude, and I don't blame him.

Is it just as simple as what we've come to believe: That none of these motherf**king fascist monsters believe a rotten lie they're vomiting at us, and are just gaslighting us to control us and to gain some scummy political advantage?

Or is it perhaps that they're the sort of stupid fools who have been deluded by Biden's constant Disinformation about covid-- about Biden's repeated, and false, claims that people with covid are incapable of catching covid and incapable of spreading covid?

I mentioned this yesterday but I would like to repeat it:

The White House deputy spokeswoman -- the runner-up in competency to Jen Psaki, to put that in perspective -- cannot explain why President Ice Cream Cone continues to spread the Deadly Disinformation that the vaccinated cannot spread covid.

Seriously, that's potentially dangerous misinformation. If someone believes that his vaccinated status means that he cannot spread covid, period, he may ignore cold symptoms and visit an elderly relative. Thinking: What's the harm? It can't be covid, and even if it is, I can't spread it. President Ice Cream Cone told me so ten times.

And then the infected person hugs grandma and spends four hours speaking with her in close quarters, and then grandma is infected.

And then Grandma dies.

All because President Ice Cream Cone lied.

And because Twitter and Facebook and Google refused to provide the warnings they slap on everyone else's "disinformation" to Ice Cream Cone's disinformation.

Causing low-information people, people incapable of reading CDC reports stating in easy-to-read English that the vaccinated can both catch and transmit covid -- uneducated, slow-witted, easily-deceived people -- people like Jake Tapper -- to believe that it's safe for them to hug their coworkers without masks, in this dangerous Age of Omicron.

Jake Tapper is Sunday Morning Jacob, the fire-and-brimstone Covid Preacher condemning the unrighteous to ICU damnation every virtual mass.

But he's also Saturday Night Jack, whoring and coking his face off at the maskless brothel.

Can't have it both ways, Jakey. Either live your life per the Holy CDC Scripture both on and off the camera, or stop preaching covid hellfire at us.

Remember: Not only won't social media monopolists correct The Regime's dangerous disinformation about the vaccinated being unable to spread covid, they'll actually censor and ban those who correctly note the CDC's statement that the vaccinated can spread covid.

From Mediaite:

"When tweets include misleading information about Covid-19, we may place a label on those tweets that includes corrective information about that claim," the website notes in a section detailing its rules about Covid-19 misinformation. "We may apply labels to tweets that contain, for example... false or misleading claims that people who have received the vaccine can spread or shed the virus (or symptoms, or immunity) to unvaccinated people."

The Regime has rewritten science according to political whim and current needs, and its corporate partners rush to censor anyone who remembers "the old science."

"Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right."

Special Bonus Hypocrisy: Not only is Jake a Covid Hypocrite, he's also a Race Hypocrite.

He loves to wag the finger of shame at others who he thinks must Do Better (Do Better, People) on Race, but the fact is: CNN So White and Jake is very comfortable within this White Supremacist Citadel of Systemic Racism.

Me: Since the "vaccine" doesn't keep you from catching covid, what is it for?
Her: To lessen symptoms.
Me: Exactly. And since your symptoms are lessened, you may not know you have it and spread it around to everyone else.

Instead of Typhoid Marys, we should call out Covid Cathys.

33 It's not hard to slip into the mindset that there never really was a pandemic. It was all the response to a coordinated panic that killed the people, and most of those people were older than the average age of death already.

We recommend no treatment, then come back so we can put you on a ventilator until you die.

This wasn't a pandemic. This was something else.

Unvaxxed are a much lower threat, since they will have symptoms and stay home, a practice done normally by responsible people until the C19 PsyOp.

66 Leaky vaccines are worse than no vaccine at all. That is the unmistakable conclusion one would derive from a May 2018 article in Quanta magazine, a top scientific publication, about the unsuccessful attempts to create vaccines for HIV, malaria, and anthrax that aren't leaky and don't run the risk of making the pathogens more dangerous.

Yet now that we are seeing such a microbiological Frankenstein play out in real life and people like Dr. Robert Malone have been citing this article to raise red flags about the leaky COVID shots, Quanta magazine took the unprecedented step of slapping an editor's note on an article three and a half years later to get people to stop applying it to the leakiest vaccine of all time.

If we had an actual media, they might just be reporting on this. IIRC, my friend says they've got something like 114 beds in their ICU tower, and they're slammed. And it's all shit like this. An entire generation of alcoholics and drug addicts - plus the escalation of violence.

He says the new thing with gang-bangers in shootouts? The coup de gras is a spinal shot. He says they've gotten so fucking good at fixing up people who've been riddled with bullets (if they don't bleed out first) the gang-bangers decided to make sure if they do live, they're paralyzed. Fucking hell.

236 GP has a story that Big Pharma won't give free Covid vaccinations to the illegals swarming in because--unlike us second-class-- the US government hasn't stolen their rights and waived liability.

Yeah, they trust their own products so much they won't let dirt-poor, illiterate illegals take it for fear of getting sued.

It's a prestigious HBCU. $10K/year in tuition alone.

I may have difficulty articulating this as I'd like, but at one time HBCUs had a very important niche in the system of higher education. Blacks were largely shut out of the Ivies and HBCUs helped create a black professional class.

No one wants to go back to the time that made them necessary, but part of me feels badly that they now have to take in anyone with a pulse.

There's no way to know if any of these people contracted the virus (if they actually have it - were these over-cycled PCR tests?). The "vaccine" is notoriously leaky or ineffective, compared to what "vaccine" usually means. Social distancing is a meaningless baseless thing. And "masks" don't work, which has long been known.

So. Nothing at all surprising here. Just a redundant reminder of how dumbed down and degraded the society is (and it's almost universal, and world-wide).

Sail. I think the word they're searching for is "sail".

A sail is a tensile structure made from fabric or other membrane materials that uses wind power to propel sailing craft, including sailing ships, sailboats, windsurfers, ice boats, and even sail-powered land vehicles.

364 I think modern sailing ships isn't a bad idea. If you want speed I think modern lighter than air craft are a good idea. The equations relating gross weight and lift are different between heavier than air and lighter to the extent that heavier than air reach, regardless of the materials used, a maximum weight while lighter than air have no theoretical limit. So you could make a lighter than air vehicles with tonnage equivalent to huge cargo ships but with faster speeds similar to rail traffic.

We are now on attempt two of the Biden administration to signal to its base that covid is won and they need to celebrate it. The first was after delta.

They want it. In fact, they need it. One reason BBB didn't pass was because the administration's largest campaign promise was laughably not done because of its own base's unwillingness to let go. COVID was a tool to defeat Trump. BBB and the Voting Bill are the tools to cement power forever.

They've started the endless present by no longer time stamping things but just categorizing them in terms of hours, days, months and years ago.

Did you know that YouTube and other platforms will label something posted on December 18, 2019 as "1 year ago"? Then tomorrow it will change to 2 years ago. Same with something posted two Saturdays ago. That's "1 week ago" until tomorrow.

Seriously. And none of them mind, because lies just by virtue of being lies, are inherently good.
