Eternal lockdown? Latest moving of the coronavirus goalpost has Andy Biggs furious

It’s funny that I just read my colleagues post about the shifting narrative for face mask mandates. One thing he noted was that people of Arizona had been most reluctant to wear face masks. In researching this, I found that many in Arizona’s government have taken this reluctance as a sign to get even more draconian, to establish completely unrealistic goals so life can essentially never go back to normal. And Congressman Andy Biggs is furious by their latest ploy.

Here is the new stance that has Biggs up in arms and that should have every freedom-loving American absolutely furious:

Firearms and Ammunition on sale now: $150 off $1,000+ (use code: APRIL150)

Maricopa County Public Health recommends that the mask requirements be kept in place until one of two situations occur:

1. 1. Until there is no community spread of COVID-19 documented in Maricopa County as defined by a 28-day period during which no new COVID-19 cases are reported to public health
   2. Until a COVID-19 vaccine is widely available with at least 40% of the population vaccinated

If there is no COVID-19 circulating, then masks are not required to prevent spread.

If there’s a vaccine and approximately 40% of the population vaccinated (about the same percentage that gets the flu vaccine every year), there will be enough immunity to prevent a rapid increase in cases. Additionally, those who are at higher risk will be able to protect themselves with a measure other than social distancing.

Biggs took to Twitter to express his concerns:

Two months ago, I warned that, with the advent of mask mandates, our state was at a crossroads. The dubious and unscientific advice from public health officials superseded the freedoms that we have previously guarded.

Last week, the Maricopa County Health Department indicated that the mask mandate will exist until there are no new COVID-19 cases reported or a vaccine is widely distributed and utilized. The goalposts have been dramatically moved with this COVID-19 hysteria – especially in Arizona.

We have moved from “15 days to slow the spread” to “No more cases – your freedoms and livelihoods can be sacrificed to accomplish our mission.”

The mask is a symbol of freedom versus totalitarianism. There are many jurisdictions around the country and world, with more mask compliance than Maricopa County, that have large numbers of COVID-19 cases. The mainstream media and radical left ignores these data points.

Every American should be outraged by the loss of freedoms over this COVID-19 hysteria. Every American should question every claim that public health officials and the mainstream media are trying to push. And every American should take back the freedoms that have largely been acquiesced to tyrannical governments around the country.

Let’s break this down. Maricopa County expects to keep the face mask and other COVID-19 lockdown mandates in place until there are ZERO reported cases for 28 days OR a vaccine is as widely circulated as the flu vaccine. If a case pops up during any four-week time period, the clock is reset. In other words, they do not want the lockdown to end, well, ever. A working vaccine may or may not be coming soon, but achieving 40% adoption likely will not happen quickly. It could be months, even years before there are zero reported cases or flu-vaccine level adoption of an unproven vaccine for a disease that has been completely underwhelming to those under the age of 50-years-old.

This is not about saving lives. This isn’t about improving healthcare. It’s 100% about government control, and tens of millions of Americans are falling in line with the greatest con job ever perpetrated against the American people. Biggs is fighting this. We all need to do the same. As he said, we must “take back the freedoms that have largely been acquiesced to tyrannical government around the country.”

Who remembers “15 days to slow the spread”? That mantra has systematically morphed into “face masks forever or until coronavirus is completely gone, whichever never comes first.” Thank you, Andy Biggs, for fighting this.

Patriots stepping up to save independent media from COVID-19 woes

We were on the verge of a disastrous end, but you guys have been stepping up big time. We’re almost there.

This year has been a roller-coaster ride for tens of millions of Americans. We’ve experienced the hardest economic downturn in history thanks to the coronavirus lockdowns and many are still trying to recover. We’re among them. Despite record-breaking surges in traffic, our revenue has fallen dramatically. It’s strange knowing that we’re working harder and getting the truth out to more people, yet revenue on the site plummeted.

We have called on our patriotic readers and podcast listeners to pitch in what they can to help. The outpouring of support has been tremendous and extremely humbling. As a conservative, I have a hard time “begging” for funds to keep our news outlet running, but COVID-19 lockdowns and subsequent reduction of revenues have made it necessary. Nevertheless, the last month has shown us that patriots appreciate pro-American news as a contrast to the anti-American mainstream media outlets spreading lies incessantly.

We asked for help and you guys have been delivering. We raised over $3200, enough to keep us going for the rest of August and part of September! I cannot stress how much of a blessing this has been for not only NOQ Report as an organization but also for my family. This isn’t a hobby; we operate NOQ Report and all of the podcasts associated with it as a more-than-full-time job. Every day we’re producing tons of content and spreading the truth that mainstream media refuses to report. Even when they do report it, they do so with a leftist slant while pretending to be unbiased. We do not use subterfuge. We are unabashedly conservative in our opinion but the news we report is factual. It all comes from a conservative, America First perspective, but we do not lie.

This isn’t about propaganda. If it were, we would be no better than the mainstream media outlets we abhor. Instead, we focus on the truth because we know that being honest gives us credibility. Besides, conservatives almost always have the truth on our side.

The best way NOQ Report readers can help is to donate. Our Giving Fuel page makes it easy to donate one-time or monthly. Alternatively, you can donate through PayPal as well. We need approximately $8,300 to stay afloat for the rest of 2020, but more would be wonderful and any amount that brings us closer to our goal is greatly appreciated.

The second way to help is to become a partner. We’ve strongly considered seeking angel investors in the past but because we were paying the bills, it didn’t seem necessary. Now, we’re struggling to pay the bills. This shouldn’t be the case as our traffic the last year has been going up dramatically. June, 2018, we had 11,678 visitors. A year later in June, 2019, we were up to 116,194. In June, 2020, we had 614,192. We’re heading in the right direction and we believe we’re ready to talk to patriotic investors who want to not only “get in on the action” but more importantly who want to help America hear the truth. Interested investors should contact me directly with the contact button above.

Election year or not, coronavirus lockdowns or not, anarchic riots or not, the need for truthful journalism endures. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report going.
