Letter: Kool-Aid, snake oil and the Eagle Forum

(Bryan Schott | The Salt Lake Tribune) Utah Attorney General Sean Reyes chats with Rep. Chris Stewart at the Utah Eagle Forum convention on Jan. 8, 2022.

How much Kool-Aid, snake oil and Lysol have supporters of the Eagle Forum been consuming? Apparently they are disturbed that a majority of society have no issue with mask-wearing, social-distancing, and vaccinations.

Please Eagles, spare us your irrational pontificating about “my body, my choice.” I just passed a COVID testing line at the Holladay Lions Club (4800 South) that snaked its way around the corner past 4900 South and Highland Drive.

You know what’s driving the omicron variant Eagles? It’s you chest-thumping, flag-waving “wannabe” patriots. The only “science” you follow is the science of denial and ignorance. You want to make a difference? Protect your loved ones, friends, coworkers and neighbors by getting vaccinated (including a booster). Continue to social distance and wear a mask!

I don’t think you Eagles get it – the virus doesn’t care about “your rights.” Keep opposing logical steps to mitigate the spread of COVID and the light you’ll see at the end of the tunnel will just be another variant!
