As Hospitalizations Reach Record Highs in Illinois, Gov. Pritzker Says He Fears Worst is to Come – WTTW (Chicago)

The soaring number of hospitalizations has left the number of intensive care beds for those experiencing emergencies like heart attacks and car crashes “frighteningly limited,” Pritzker said. “It is frustrating and tragic that two years into the pandemic with multiple widely available and free life-saving vaccines that we are once again in this horrible position."

Truly unbelievable numbers, Flounder.

IL must have the sickest unjabbed people and most amazingly resilient jabbed folks on the planet. Because no one else seems to have stats as skewed as IL.

Up in the facist country formerly known as Canada, a province with a similar population (15 million) is seeing something different. Why?

Where is the out cry from our republican representatives in this state. Even though we are outnumbered and in the minority. The people we put in office are not fighting in the public arena. It’s time to get down in the mud with these people. If not, the movement needs to change players,that’s the way to change the tide.

If this 400 lb. lying dictator were to present at the ER with chest pain during the absolute nightmare he’s created within healthcare institutions for 2 years he’d receive preferential treatment. How many have really died attempting to schedule medical appointments–vaccinated or unvaccinated? When is this liar going to be put in prison for the lockdowns, mandates and hospitals practicing without civil liability?

Think Wirepoints should encourage its readers to watch Joe Rogan’s two podcasts, with Dr. Malone and with Dr. McCullough. Rogan is actually an excellent interviewer. These two Docs have strong credentials, and should receive wide media coverage, instead of their damning by Big Pharma and Silicon Tech.

We’re living in a dystopian movie plot.

And the taxpayers worst fear is Pritzker

Pritzker fears worst to come— His worst fear is that this will burn out by the end of January, with minimal deaths… They created this alleged hospital *crisis* by forcing out 20-30% of their workforce due to the vax mandates… They have also vastly inflated the case count by scaring people into waiting in line for hours to get tested, most of whom have NO SYMPTOMS… The cherry on top is that the CDC does NOT recommend the use of the PCR test as it is unreliable, can’t discern between the flu & covid AND can return positive results up… Read more »

Pritzker has yet to disclose the sales and profit from Covid testing he and his family have gained to date.

So I guess the vaccines don’t work as promised, the masking, the double masking, the social distancing, and Pritzkers lockdowns. Fauci demanding only the Big Pharma mRNA vaccines be used has been a complete failure of public health policy. Perhaps it’s long overdue to retire Fauci if we want the Covid pandemic to end.

Trump did nothing about Covid mainstream media said. Biden had a plan the media endorsed.
More have died, more infected under Biden and he has given up.

Where is the medical advice to stop relying on the government and take it upon yourself to survive? Get into the best physical shape you can, eat real food, and stay away from the processed garbage, turn off the tv and social media. Start a new hobby to engage your brain. Don’t listen to the handwringing that is going on in Illinois, because it isn’t happening in other states. They’re out there living their lives and enjoying it. Don’t listen to JB, or any of his henchmen – do you really think they’re living what they’re preaching/mandating?

Thats right Pritzker, the worst is yet to come, because you, your ILK and the media pump fear, into the heads of millions of people about Covid, all the while denying the prescription of life saving treatments such as HCQ and Ivermectin from being prescribed by doctors and dispensed by hospitals to people who are diagnosed with Covid and to those dying of Covid. The worst is yet to come mandating people take a Toxic Covid shot in order for people to keep their jobs and freedoms. Shameful mandating that children take a toxic shot in order to attend school… Read more »

Today Danish authorities said that the Covid-19 pandemic in Denmark could be over in two months. Their chief epidemiologist has said Omicron is bringing about the END of the pandemic. The Danes, like the Swedes have done a brilliant job on managing COVID.

You will not hear Freddie talk about this, nor Beijing Biden for that matter.

We have to take back our freedoms. Take back our country.

Omicron will burn itself out in a month or so. Then what fear mongering tactic will this control freak use to keep us peasants in line? Son of omicron?

Mark Glennon on AM560’s Morning Answer: Chicago pension buyout plan mostly shifts debt rather than eliminating it, property tax surge doubles inflation over three decades

Chicago’s political leadership is floating a pension buyout program as evidence it is seriously addressing the city’s thirty-six-billion-dollar unfunded pension liability, but Mark Glennon, founder of the Illinois policy research organization Wirepoints, said that the proposal moves debt from one column to another rather than reducing it, and that the broader fiscal picture facing the city continues to deteriorate across every measurable dimension.
