Guest Post by Ann Coulter
As with Robert Frost’s two paths diverging in the woods, the COVID pandemic has hit a fork in the road.
Back in 2020, when the virus first presented itself, anything could be forgiven. Trump could shoot hydroxychloroquine up his butt; Fauci could sneer at masks, then a week later demand that we wear 17 masks; governors could order everyone to stay home, while they cavorted at parties, restaurants, hair salons and protests.
The lies, hypocrisies and idiocies were all stuffed in our burlap bag, as we bounced along Coronavirus Road.
Then, in a triumph of Western medicine, A VACCINE APPEARED! That’s when our path in the woods diverged into the sane and insane.
It’s pretty clear now that the vaccines work, with few side effects — although our public health experts would really do us a solid if they’d stop lying about there being no side effects. At a minimum, the vaccines prevent serious illness and death. They’re even more effective than the flu vaccine, and that’s pretty good.
Between widespread natural infection — something else it would be nice if authorities would stop lying about — and mass vaccination, COVID IS NOW OVER. It wasn’t “the flu” in 2020, but it is in 2021.
Liberals sulked as people began getting vaccinated and living their lives again, but then seized on the delta variant to announce: Let’s lock down again!
The very people demanding that everyone get vaccinated are the same ones telling us vaccines don’t work all that well, so maybe we’d better just keep wearing masks, quarantining, working remotely and staying home from school.
Do the vaccines work or don’t they? If they work, we’ll thank you to stop bossing us around now.
Going further into crazy town, liberals decided to pretend that Anthony Fauci was not an escaped mental patient.
Our most visible “public health” authority continues to issue lunatic pronouncements like a third world despot: The vaccinated must wear masks! Children should be vaccinated! Even 2-year-olds need to be masked! Everybody has to get a third vaccine shot! (That last bright idea led a couple of experts from the Food and Drug Administration advisory panel to resign in protest, followed by the panel unanimously voting to recommend booster shots only in certain cases.)
Apart from just coming out and telling us he doesn’t believe the vaccines work, Fauci is telling us he doesn’t believe the vaccines work.
This is the nut, you will recall, who knowingly lied to the public at the outset of the pandemic for what he, Anthony Fauci, in his sole discretion, decided was a higher cause. Without a scintilla of scientific evidence one way or the other, he condescendingly announced that masks don’t work against COVID — simply for the greater good of preventing a mask shortage.
What if he considers it a greater good for Anthony Fauci to keep appearing on TV? Like an aging football star who dreams of being back in high school, Fauci longs to be in the spotlight.
Except we have vaccines now! So thanks, but we’ve heard enough from you, Fauci.
Also, we know things that we didn’t in 2020.
We now know, for example, that COVID is bad, but it’s not Ebola. Eighty-year-olds have survived it. Trump survived it. The 800-pound Chris Christie survived it. And that was before we had all the therapies we have now. Or, come to think of it, any idea what we were doing at all. (Remember the mad rush for ventilators?)
We know that cases are good; deaths are bad. The media frantically report “cases” only because their panic porn attracts readers, so who cares if it’s irrelevant?
As long as you don’t die, which would be bad, a COVID infection is nature’s vaccination shot! As multiple studies have shown, immunity from prior infection is stronger and more durable than that from vaccination.
Infections are especially good if you’re already vaccinated. Then you’ll have super-immunity. You won’t die of COVID — although you might die with COVID, especially if you’re old or sick or have just taken a massive dose of fentanyl.
Like George Floyd. Remember? He had COVID when he died. But unlike Floyd, the media will broadcast your death as a cautionary tale to again harangue us to wear masks and get vaccinated. How dare you not get a vaccine and put the vaccinated at risk!
But the vaccinated aren’t at risk. You know why? Because the vaccines work.
We also know that COVID poses virtually no risk to young people. We knew this early on, and for some reason ignored it, but by now the evidence is overwhelming.
Since COVID landed on our shores, 95% of dead the U.S. have been 50 or older. Nearly 80% of the dead were 65 or older — and not only are they heavily vaccinated, but they make up only 16% of the population. The 64.5% of the population under age 50 — in its entirety — has a 5% chance of dying from COVID.
Combine the minimal risk of death to young people — less than the flu during a normal flu season — with what we now know about the strong immunity from prior COVID infection, and, throughout 2020, we should have been putting little kids into giant, Japanese-size classrooms and encouraging young people to blow beer foam in one another’s faces, get drunk and make out with strangers. Our entire under-30 population would be immune.
Remember the college kid on spring break when COVID first hit the news in February 2020, who had his life destroyed for nonchalantly telling a TV interviewer, “If I get corona, I get corona”? If only we’d listened to him instead of Fauci!

Sellout…
This reads like Ann has succumbed to the brain fog from Covid jabs and/or long Covid. It rambles on and doesn’t reach any meaningful conclusion. Which parts are meant seriously, and which are facetious? No one knows, probably not even Ann.
Maybe she should go to work for Joe Biden. At least they would “understand” each other.
Could be something to that brain fog thing. It can pierce the “blood-brain” barrier. Probably through the lymphatic system nobody wants to talk about. If they are using graphene as a delivery vehicle, that could get interesting
For the past couple years I’ve opined that Ms. Adams Apple is a hack. She has never been a great writer … and has regressed to a blathering fool the past couple of years.
Good that folks see the light.
I feel vindicated.
I have never been a fan of hers, but most of her past neo-con and assorted RINO pieces have at least been coherent. This.. umm… “essay” sounds like Joe Biden trying to explain what he was doing 10 years ago.
She’s trying to win brownie points. As if she’ll get invited on NPR if she can demonstrate her “objectivity” on the shots.
“If only we’d listened to him instead of Fauci!” If only you’d listened to him instead of Fauci. Many of us here knew this was BS from the very beginning!
Waste of blood and organs.
‘Waste of blood and organs.”
Both of which will be dissolving into a red goo within a year or less.
I’m sorry for her, but what’s done is done.
Wondering how much Pfizer stock she owns…
For a minute I thought AC was pointing out that COVID/COVID SHIT SHOTS were the Final Solution for the elderly, which it is. Other than that I missed her point.
If the elderly were dogs and being destroyed on this level, there would be riots over the murders. Dogs seem to be more important than people these days.
Bill Murray Quote: “I’m suspicious of people who don’t like dogs, but I trust a dog when it doesn’t like a person.”
Truth in that.
Because they don’t stab you in the back and are loyal to the end by protecting you til their death.
And her opinion matters, why?? Surprised to see this junk here.
But YOU read it. Which is worse? Expressing a view or reading the view? Or do you come here just to confirm your own ideas and prejudices?
I did? How do you know I read it? Because I clicked on the article before knowing the author? Don’t be an idiot.
Ann knows what’s up with the clot shot. Ann Barnhardt that is.
Love that lady.
Umm, no, these vaccines don’t really work. Certainly, not as vaccines should by even a loose definition. And the side effects are grossly understated and suppressed. And one must surmise that she is a willing participant of the jabs. The article almost reads as a feel good piece for those who have been jabbed.
Her 5% number of deaths under fifty from Statista does not take into account that the causes of death are not remotely defined as being *with* Covid, or *from* Covid. And no mention of co-morbidities contributing to said deaths are even taken into account. The *real* numbers for people less than 50 years old should be dramatically less than 5% if any of what I mentioned is taken into account. Far less than even one percent I reckon.
It isn’t helping that so many very public figures are not discerning. Too much Kool-Aid being consumed.
Ann is utterly irrelevant.
“It’s pretty clear now that the vaccines work, with few side effects — although our public health experts would really do us a solid if they’d stop lying about there being no side effects. At a minimum, the vaccines prevent serious illness and death. They’re even more effective than the flu vaccine, and that’s pretty good..”
It’s abundantly clear there’s no need to subject myself to the rest of this drivel.
Yep, that’s exactly where I stopped reading.
She’s talking about forking roads; it’s obvious which forking one she took. But she should have quoted the end to the Frost poem to which she alludes:
“It wasn’t “the flu” in 2020, but it is in 2021.”
This was going to happen whether the Fauci pick was out there or not. It’s the science of viruses of the simple type that is covid (and covid is a simple type virus). Each new variant may or may not be more infectious but the lethality of the virus regardless if the infection rate drops significantly.
This is entirely ridiculous.
FDA: Heart Attacks 71 times more often for Vaccine takers – We are killing 2 people for each one the vaccine saves? The stats… at FDA
If I’m gonna get gaslit, it better be with nitrous oxide. The crap from the left and fake-right is wearing thin.
EBDNR (excessive bullshit, did not read).
The vaccines work? After the CDC and FDA admitted they don’t?
Sorry, I couldn’t get past:
It’s pretty clear now that the vaccines work, with few side effects — although our public health experts would really do us a solid if they’d stop lying about there being no side effects. At a minimum, the vaccines prevent serious illness and death.
Didi it get any better?
Uhmmm, ….
330,000,000 x 0.65 = 214,500,000
214,500,000 x 0.05 = 10,725,000
So, by Ann’s count, once everyone’s gotten Covid, there’ll be 11 MILLION dead Americans under age 50, and apparently no one over 65 left alive.
Ann is now officially a numb cunt.
Hannity is jabbed. Victor Davis Hansen is jabbed. Ann Coulter is jabbed and probably most of the Fox News punditry. Even after Russiagate they all must now believe CNN is right half of the time.
Shaking my head over here.
Covid was met with very little resistance. And the number of resisters will likely diminish as the economic pressure to get jabbed intensifies.
Ann proves once again she is controlled opposition. Nobody is allowed to tell the truth about the vaccines
Another one of Ann’s meandering screeds.
Ann doesn’t really know that the not-vax is going to separate the wheat from the chaff. With controlled opposition like her, the October ADE party can’t come soon enough. I’m not worried about ADE as my whole family just received our “golden pass” of natural immunity this month, using mostly vitamins and fluids. Only my wife needed mAb and that was a surprise as I’m diabetic and she had a successful cancer surgery. I feel blessed to get my golden pass as I’ve heard natural immunity from sars-cov1 was 18 years. I pray that everyone is as fortune as my family in dealing with the covids.
Oh, the ‘vaccines’ work all right. Just not as advertised….
I quit reading this crap at “the vaccine works with few side effects”
This vax kills people. Hell of a side effect, Ann.
Controlled oppo
I’ve seen this before, Graphine Oxide Syndrome.

The “vaccines are killing tens of thousands and people think the shit works. It works alright, as kill shot.
“It’s pretty clear now that the vaccines work, with few side effects”
Do you see how it’s both Republicans and Democrats that are relentlessly pushing these lies? There is no two party system. There is just one big party of control freaks.
Coulter just writes S*, the more outrageous, the better. I do not look on her as a columnist worth reading.
