50 ‘Back To Normal’ Things I’m Already Doing, And So Should You – The Federalist

Eighty weeks after the experts told America it would only take two weeks to slow the spread, Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla wants you to know that you can probably go back to living your life as normal in another 52 weeks,if youre vaccinated.

Within a year, I think we will be able to come back to normal life, Bourla said on Sunday, as if the country has been holding its breath for his permission to go back to living. He was also sure to add the caveat, I dont think this means that we should be able to live our lives without having vaccinations like the one that has brought his company hundreds of millions of dollars.

Bourla was echoing a similar comment Moderna CEO Stphane Bancel made last week, that he assumes life will be back to normal as of today, in a year. Like many self-appointed experts, Bourla and Bancel clearly dont realize that no one outside of their self-affirming echo chamber is listening to them.

Whether because theyre vaccinated or simply because they decided the risks of the coronavirus didnt merit putting life on pause in the first place, most Americans are already back to normal or trying to as best they can, under dragged-out mandates and closures from political powerbrokers who dont follow their own rules.

I can easily list 50 normal-life things Ive already done without waiting for the elusive permission of experts like Bourla. Their attempt to control your life shouldnt stop you from doing activities like these, either.

Those are just the first 50 things that pop into mind, not to mention the countless other things that are so unremarkably normal I didnt even think to include them. If youre like most of the country, you could check off many of these things and more.

Conversely, if youre still holding out for permission from out-of-touch bullies like Bourla to go on living, dont hold your breath. Itll be the longest two weeks of your life.
