We’ve reached a wall of vaccine reluctancy in America of late, in which those who remain unvaccinated against COVID-19 are largely doing so by choice. They’ve decided that, for any number of reasons, they aren’t interested in receiving an inoculation.
But still the government and corporations continue to push for more vaccines in arms, or else.
The delta variant of COVID-19 is now prompting a number of state and local officials to threaten a return of mask mandates, capacity guidelines, and even lockdowns.
Despite this, one former President is getting ready to throw himself a big ol’ birthday bash.
Former President Barack Obama is reportedly planning to host a 60th birthday party for himself on Martha’s Vineyard as threat of the delta variant continues.
Obama will turn 60 on Wednesday and is anticipated to invite dozens of his friends to his nearly 30-acre property in Massachusetts. It is unclear who exactly will be invited, but one source told the Hill that stars such as Oprah Winfrey and George Clooney received invites.
“It’s going to be big,” a source told the Hill.
The intersection of opulence and irresponsibility came with some staggering numbers.
Guests will reportedly be asked to take a coronavirus test and be vaccinated ahead of the event.
Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama purchased the $11.75 million mansion in 2019, which is located in the Edgartown section of the island.
The birthday bash comes as Massachusetts recommends some vaccinated individuals wear face masks in public in response to threats of the delta variant.
The news is sure to conjure a great deal of criticism of the former Commander in Chief, especially as his fellow Democrats struggle to convince much of the nation to take the coronavirus seriously.
