Former Vice President Joe Biden said this week that the “darkest days” in the coronavirus outbreak “are ahead of us, not behind us,” shooting down expectations that the country will soon experience a return to normality.
“One thing I promise you about my leadership during this crisis: I’m going to tell it to you straight. I’m going to tell you the truth. And here’s the simple truth: Our darkest days in the battle against Covid are ahead of us, not behind us,” Biden said in remarks in Wilmington, Delaware, on Tuesday.
“So we need to prepare ourselves, to steel our spines,” the former vice president continued. “As frustrating as it is to hear, it’s going to take patience, persistence and determination to beat this virus. There will be no time to waste in taking the steps we need to turn this crisis around.”
The 78-year-old Democrat praised Congress for passing a $900 billion COVID-19 relief bill on Monday. The legislation seeks to accelerate the distribution of vaccines and deliver small-business aid.
“Like all compromises, it’s far from perfect. But it does provide vital relief at a critical moment,” Biden said.
He specifically stated that if he becomes president next year, he will ask Congress for sufficient funding to distribute a COVID-19 vaccine to at least 300 million Americans over the next year. He had previously promised to get 100 million vaccine doses (which would cover 50 million Americans) distributed in his first 100 days.

The remarks came one day after Biden received a shot containing what was supposedly the Pfizer/BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine on live TV to try to convince Americans that the vaccine is safe.
“I look forward to the second shot, and I have absolute confidence in the vaccine,” Biden said Tuesday. “But we’re in short supply. Taking the vaccine from a vial into the arm of millions of Americans is one of the biggest operational challenges the United States has ever faced.”
His “darkest days” comment is similar to previous remarks warning Americans of a “dark winter.” This has been tied to his calls for people to follow coronavirus mitigation measures such as staying locked inside their homes and wearing face masks.
Ultimately, all the “dark” fear mongering is a way for Joe Biden, the Democrats, and the establishment to keep the people in a state of terror, thereby making us more susceptible to obeying unconstitutional mandates.
Top on the Deep State’s list of priorities is getting as many Americans as possible to take the COVID-19 vaccine. To do that, the mainstream media is warping what herd immunity really means, changing it from a population naturally becoming immune to an infectious disease through exposure to requiring the use of mass vaccination.
One establishment epidemiologist, Joshua Epstein of the NYU School of Global Public Health, said, “If enough get vaccinated, the disease can die out on its own for lack of fuel. That’s the herd-immunity idea: Protect enough people that it has insufficient fuel to keep burning.”
The goal of a vaccination strategy, he added, “is to tip the epidemic into that declining state.”
Sadly, many people are leaping at the opportunity of taking the vaccine, ignoring the rushed way it was created and the fact that it has not been tested for long-term side effects.
And remember: Thanks to the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986, you cannot directly sue the manufacturer if you or your loved ones are injured or killed by this vaccine. Because of the 1986 law, the federal government created a special “court” where tax-funded federal lawyers defend vaccine companies and where taxpayers are on the hook for any damages.
Billions have already been paid out to vaccine manufacturers. No other industry enjoys such immunity from liability.
Thankfully, some states and localities are standing up to the COVID hysteria. In Florida, for example, Governor Ron DeSantis signed an executive order that prohibits local governments from punishing those who refuse to wear masks or follow other coronavirus restrictions. The order also prevents business closures (including restaurants) without health or economic justifications.
South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem, likewise, has taken a policy of leaving it up to individuals, not the government, to decide how to respond to the supposed threats of the China virus.
The first step in resisting the COVID tyranny is to resist the fear campaigns. Many Americans have had enough of Joe Biden’s “dark winter.”
