As reported in this issue on the failure of lockdowns in numerous countries (see “COVID-19 LOCKDOWNS: COMPLETE POLICY FAILURES”), the state of New York, under Governor Andrew Cuomo, has the worst fatality rate from COVID not only of any other U.S. state but of any other country.
Yet, it is now revealed that the New York State Assembly has submitted a bill that would give the state government the power to force citizens infected or even suspected of having being infected into detention centers.
As reported on a number of websites, the proposed legislation would “grant sweeping arrest powers to the governor of New York.”
The proposed bill is posted on the official web site of the New York State Senate and reads, “Assembly Bill A416, 2021-2022 Legislative Session, Relates to the removal of cases, contacts and carriers of communicable diseases who are potentially dangerous to the public health.”
The bill was submitted by Democratic assemblyman N. Nick Perry.
According to Post Online Media, reported last Saturday, “The law apparently allows the governor or health official to unilaterally approve such detentions, but a court order is required within 60 days of confinement, and judicial review is also required if the individual is still in detention after 90 days… the bill also allows the governor or relevant health authorities to require people deemed potential health risks to submit to medical examinations.”
The bill specifically states the power of the state government to enforce a “prescribed course of treatment, preventative medication, or vaccination.”
It’s important to note that this proposed law never actually refers to the coronavirus, but could apply to any general medical emergency as perceived by the governor.
TRENDPOST: Interesting that a bill has been introduced into the New York State Assembly that advocates “detention centers” and “forced vaccinations,” given that NY’s Governor Andrew Cuomo recently referred to the newly distributed COVID-19 vaccines in totally warlike terminology.
On 15 December, the governor, commenting on the new vaccines, stated, “I believe this is the weapon that will end the war… we have planes, trains, and automobiles moving this all over the state right now. We want to get it deployed, and we want to get it deployed quickly.”
At a 6 December press conference, Cuomo declared, “COVID-19 is spreading, and it affects all New Yorkers, upstate, and downstate. This is a war, and we continue to adapt to the enemy.”
The governor added, “We know what works: wear a mask, avoid indoor gatherings, and socially distance, and the local governments must do enforcement. We will win this war, but it will take vigilance.”
Governor Cuomo is backed by proposed Commander in Chief-elect Joe Biden, who stated on 25 November, “I know the country has grown weary of the fight. We need to remember we’re at war with the virus.”
