COVID Vaccine Controversies and Leadership
El jefe de Enfermedades Infecciosas de nuestro hospital trabajaba con el gobernador para
quitarles
la licencia de conducir a quienes no estuvieran vacunados contra la COVID.
¿En serio?
Salía en las noticias todo el tiempo.
Espera, cuéntame más. ¿Cómo, cómo iba a ser eso?
¿Iba a ser como un, un pasaporte de vacunación para poder conducir?
Correcto.
Correcto. Él, él me detuvo en el pasillo.
Me dijo: "Tengo, tengo grandes noticias". Se llama George.
Salía en toda CNN en esa época. Por supuesto,
hablaba con los periódicos.
Hablaba con los periódicos, hablaba con
los medios, salía en todas partes. Por cierto, es un pésimo médico.
Es prácticamente uno de los peores diagnosticadores del planeta.
Este, ya sabes, si alguna vez tienes que tratar un polémico
caso de enfermedades infecciosas
enfermedades, dijera lo que dijera, sabías que no era eso.
Pero—
Vaya.
De todos modos, lo ascendieron a jefe de enfermedades
infecciosas porque esa era
la época. Y—
Sí, se llama fracasar hacia arriba, ¿no?
Bueno, no, buscas a alguien con flexibilidad moral.
Ah.
Y eligieron mi hospital porque en la directiva teníamos flexibilidad moral.
O sea, teníamos una, teníamos una ventaja en el mercado,
y por eso creo que nuestro hospital
dio el primer diagnóstico de caso de COVID.
Vale. Espera, espera, espera, me estás haciendo reír.
¿O sea que «moralmente flexible» es un eufemismo para «sin ética»?
No, harán lo que quieras.
Sí. Vale.
O sea, no es como… La moral no existe.
D-decir que no tienen ética implicaría que
conocían la ética.
O sea, son… son cualquier cosa.
Digo, quiero decir, es como, es el perfil moral de un asesino.
Es el perfil moral de, de un, de… Simplemente son ambivalentes.
No, no es que sean antiéticos, es solo que esa no es la cuestión.
Vaya. ¿Hasta dónde crees que llegó esto de
intentar exigir la vacuna contra el COVID
para tener licencia de conducir? ¿Hasta, hasta dónde llegaron con eso?
Estaba trabajando con el gobernador.
¿Crees entonces que iban a presentar un proyecto de ley o una,
una orden ejecutiva?
Creo que querían. O sea, habían creado los campos de cuarentena.
No sé si tuvieron de esos en California,
pero los tuvieron en Washington, donde
tomaron lugares públicos, les pusieron alambre de púas y estaban
poniendo en cuarentena a indigentes no vacunados.
Tenían una partida presupuestaria aparte, pueden buscarlo, para la fuerza de choque.
para vigilarlo, pero hubo demasiada indignación.
Esa no prosperó.
Ni tampoco quitarle a la gente la licencia de conducir por no estar vacunada,
pero lo estaban
intentando.
¿Así que fue la indignación pública la que, eh, anuló ese requisito de la licencia,
dirías?
Yo, ya sabes, la verdad no me involucré más
que eso cuando…
Fue, fue una conversación de ascensor.
George me habló de eso y yo me quedé como…
Y le dije, le dije cosas poco amables, eh,
sobre eso. Y él… Y dije: "Sabes, George, vas a provocar una guerra
civil".
Y me miró con esos ojos, como de psicópata. Como: "Ja, ja, ja.
Ja, ja, ja". Y estos son nuestros líderes.
Él sabía muy bien que eso iba a fomentar el malestar social y
estaba totalmente a favor y con el gobernador. Así eran nuestros líderes.

Original transcript (English)
The head of infectious disease at our hospital was working with the governor to get people's driver's license taken away who didn't have a COVID vaccine. Really? He was on the news all the time.
Wait, talk more about that. What, what was that gonna be? That was gonna be like a, a vaccine passport so you could drive? Correct. Correct. He, he stopped me in the hallway. He's like, "Got, got great news." His name's George.
He was all over CNN at the time. Of course, he was talking to the newspapers. He was talking to the newspapers, he was talking to the media, he was highlighted everywhere. He's a horrible doctor, by the way. He's like one of the worst diagnosticians on the planet.
Um, you know, if you're ever dealing with a contentious case about infectious disease, like whatever he said, you knew that wasn't it. But- Oh, man
... regardless, he was promoted to the head of infectious disease because that was the era. And- Yeah, it's called failing up, right? Well, no, you get someone who's morally flexible.
Oh. And my hospital was picked because in leadership we had moral flexibility. Like, we had a, we had a hedge on the market, and that's why I think our hospital rolled out the first COVID case diagnosis.
Okay. Wait, wait, wait, you're cracking me up. So morally flexible is a euphemism for unethical? No, they'll do anything you want. Yeah. Okay. I mean, it's not like... Morality isn't a thing.
I, i- calling them unethical would imply they knew ethics. Like, they're, they're anything. I, I mean, it's like, it's the moral profile of an assassin. It's a moral profile of, of a, of... They just, they're ambivalent.
It, it's not that they're anti-ethical, it's just that's not the question. Wow. So how far do you think this went with trying to make a COVID shot required to, to be a licensed driver? How, how far did they get on that? He was working with the governor.
So do you think they were gonna introduce a bill or an, an executive order? I think they wanted to. I mean, they had instituted the quarantine camps. I don't know if you had those in California, but they had them in Washington where
they took public places, put barbed wire around them, and were quarantining the unvaccinated homeless. They had a separate line item budget, you can look this up, for the strike force to police it, but there was a little too much outrage. That one didn't fly.
Nor did taking away people's driver's license for being unvaccinated, but they were trying. So it was public outrage that, uh, killed that driver's license requirement, would you say?
I, you know, I honestly didn't engage more than that when... It was, it was an elevator conversation. George talked to me about it, and I was like... And I said, said unkind things to him, um,
about it. And he... And I said, "You know, George, you are going to create a civil war." And he looked at me with these, like, psycho eyes. Like, "Ha ha ha. Ha ha ha." And so these are our leaders. He knew fully well that that was gonna foment societal unrest, and
he was all in and working with the governor. So those were our leaders.
