The FDA, to the thinking world, imho, embarassed itself with this kind of threatening, chest-pounding, ill considered seizure.

Don'tcha mess with Boss Hogg -

"Punishment must be meted out to slaves who attempt escape the matrix." -

The whole Covid world was watching, and the FDA is not fooling anyone.

In the circles that matter, the dissonance will be duly noted.

As if further confirmation were needed, they've only compounded the ongoing damage to their crdeibility, moral authority and the public's respect and trust. Not only here in the USA.

It reads like they subbed this out to a short. Bimbo level boiler plate.
I don't think I've seen even Schlepping Alpha play this fast and loose at the altar.
And, timing-wise, appeared coordinated with the shorts. Surprises never end.

Someone wrote that this is like thalidomide in reverse. Sort of, but the scale is different.

"Experts estimate that were thalidomide led to the death of approximately 2,000 children and serious birth defects in more than 10,000 children, about 5,000 of them in West Germany."

From respected to facade, to besotted brass knuckles, slurring their facts.

Pitiful.
Move to a different country.
We don't have an FDA anymore.
