The latest weapon the radical leftist Biden-Harris regime has chosen is a frightening one as the simmering Second American Civil War heats up. The Democrat-Socialist government has announced they intend to withhold monoclonal antibody treatment from states with Republican Governors. It’s Red v. Blue. Federal Health officials have announced that they plan to “allocate specific amounts to each state under the new approach, in an effort to more evenly distribute the 150,000 doses that the government makes available per week.”
These officials have claimed that the states of Texas, Florida, Mississippi, Tennessee, Georgia, Louisiana, and Alabama whose need for the COVID treatment has been greatest have been “consuming a disproportionate amount of the national supply” according to Politico. These seven states have in fact accounted for approximately 70% of all orders for September so far, owning to notable spikes in cases there. Until now the federal government has shipped supplies on an “as needed” basis, as it should be.
An HHS spokesperson told Politico that allocation will be determined “on a weekly basis”
“HHS will determine the amount of product each state and territory receives on a weekly basis,” the spokesperson said. “State and territorial health departments will subsequently identify sites that will receive product and how much.”
Although weekly supply has been increased from 100k to 150k doses, restricted allocations are expected to persist into October.
A Threat, And a Follow Through, Seeming To Punish Red States
It is nearly impossible to view this development as anything other than punitive in light of Joe Biden’s inflammatory and divisive rhetoric in an address regarding COVID19 in early September. Biden disturbingly informed COVID19 mRNA treatment hesitant Americans that,
“Over 200 million Americans have gotten at least one shot. We’ve been patient, but our patience is wearing thin, And your refusal has cost all of us.”
He followed that up with a threat toward Republicans, a warning not to stand in his way that sent chills through anyone with a notion of what an authoritarian regime looks like.
“If they’ll not help — if these governors won’t help us beat the pandemic, I’ll use my power as President to get them out of the way. “
Words matter. And the consequences of those policies matter as well, with his right hand Biden forcibly compels vaccination, and with his left, he takes away one for the most reliable and effective treatments for those afflicted by COVID. Every appearance is that these are deliberate, coordinated actions with one idea in mind: forcing Americans to take the mRNA treatment.
