His new covid vaccination goal is 70% of adults to have at least one shot by July 4th. Now, there was a poll in the Washington Examiner, and this has to do with masks &#8212; the mask or what many of us call the muzzle or the face diaper, whatever, one of the greatest control tools ever.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this week on the show we talked about how the CDC said, if you\u2019re going to camp, kids, you have to be three feet away and you can\u2019t do this and you have to wear a mask if you\u2019re outdoors. And that is just&#8230; I believe it\u2019s child abuse. I just think you don\u2019t keep children from breathing. That\u2019s just&#8230; It\u2019s rule number one.<\/p>\n<p>But 25% of people in a Washington Examiner poll said we should use masks until 2023, and some even said we should always have masks with us and use them. So if you wonder if brainwashing works, it does. That\u2019s why you still see people walking around with masks, and you might even seen grown men and women with two masks.<\/p>\n<p>So yesterday at the White House, there was Joe Biden trying to explain things. Oh, by the way, before I forget, if you have a chance, there\u2019s a lovely photo of Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter with Joe and Jill Biden. It looks Photoshopped because the Carters have shrunk so much over the years. I\u2019m telling you, they look like puppets. I mean no disrespect.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-395997\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/APP-20201-050521-Bidens-Carters.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/APP-20201-050521-Bidens-Carters.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/APP-20201-050521-Bidens-Carters-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/APP-20201-050521-Bidens-Carters-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>But either Joe and Jill have grown &#8212; and who knows? Maybe that is the vaccine. But the Carters have shrunk. Joe looks like he could pick up Rosalynn and Jimmy and put \u2019em in his backpack. It is a lovely photo, though, and here\u2019s the good part of it. They\u2019re not wearing masks, and they\u2019re inside, and they\u2019re elderly, and they\u2019re all real close to each other. Once again, another mixed signal. Here\u2019s Mr. Biden.<\/p>\n<p>BIDEN: (whispering) We\u2019re gonna make it easier than ever to get vaccinated. Visit Vaccines.gum (sic) &#8212; dot gov, Vaccines.gum or text to your zzz&#8230; Text your ZIP Code to 438829, 438829. Walk in your local pharmacy without an appointment. Go to the doctor or local health clinic. It\u2019s free! It\u2019s nearby. Every adult is eligible. You know, go get the shot as soon as you can.<\/p>\n<p>KEN: It\u2019s amazing, and this is such a wonderful example. You take most politicians, especially on the left, they take the very simple and make it garbled and complex and confusing, whereas <a href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/daily\/2020\/04\/22\/herd-immunity-explained-for-those-of-you-in-rio-linda\/\">Rush takes the complex and makes it understandable. Here he is<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I got an email, just checked an email. Honestly &#8212; not making this up &#8212; it came from Rio Linda, or it says it\u2019s from Rio Linda &#8212; &#8220;could you explain herd immunity?&#8221; Yeah, I can explain herd immunity and I can probably explain it in the simplest, least complex way that you\u2019ve ever had it explained to you. In a nutshell, if enough people get the virus and thus have the antibody, when you get the virus &#8212; and we\u2019re gonna assume you survive it &#8212; you now have an antibody to it. You have an immunity to it. It\u2019s true of many viruses, not all, \u2019cause you get the cold frequently, the flu has different strains.<\/p>\n<div id=\"zype_5ec681d68b49730001f2e9d2\"><\/div>\n<p><script src=\"https:\/\/player.zype.com\/embed\/5ec681d68b49730001f2e9d2.js?api_key=6yUf3WZePk78GtpC3BXdZSqZ5ma_gYmV_rEJ8OYJZ0wq3AlDKM2RFnOcBN0xiMco&amp;controls=true\" type=\"text\/javascript\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>But herd immunity I believe is happening in many states, and in many parts of states. Very simply, if enough people get the virus, enough people in a state, enough people in a town, any large group, and thus have the antibody, then the virus cannot spread. If it goes into a person with the antibody, the virus dies. It is defeated by the antibody which exists after you have been infected, whether you\u2019ve had symptoms or not.<\/p>\n<p>This is why the antibody tests are so crucial. A lot of people never have any symptoms, but they have built up the antibody. The virus dies in every person who has the antibodies. It\u2019s not passed on to somebody else who has not had it. That\u2019s what herd immunity does. It stops the spread. And it\u2019s amazing that so many people are pooh-poohing this. And who are these people pooh-poohing it? I\u2019ll give you one question. I\u2019ll give you one answer, give you one hint. They belong to a political party that begins with the letter D.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-396003\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/APP-20201-050521-Biden-.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/APP-20201-050521-Biden-.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/APP-20201-050521-Biden--300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/APP-20201-050521-Biden--480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>KEN: It\u2019s amazing how simple Rush was able to make things. I saw Fauci, Mr. Contradiction, Mister&#8230; Talk about a lack of credibility. But Fauci was on one of the morning news shows, and they were asking him about the CDC\u2019s latest restriction on your children being outside on a beautiful summer day running through the field, interacting with other children, having to continue to stay apart and having to wear a mask.<\/p>\n<p>And he said, &#8220;Well, it\u2019s kind of, you know, I&#8230;&#8221; The anchor said, &#8220;Is it extreme?&#8221; And, you know, in typical fashion (impression) &#8220;Well, it\u2019s not extreme. It\u2019s conservative. I don\u2019t&#8230; I &#8212; I\u2019ll&#8230; Mask on. Mask off.&#8221; Uh, I couldn\u2019t believe it. I couldn\u2019t believe it. Why didn\u2019t&#8230; That was his perfect opportunity. That was his perfect opportunity to say right there, &#8220;Well, as the president said last week: Outside, I don\u2019t think we need the mask anymore, especially with young people, because they are least at risk.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But no.<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s still pushing it because they love the control.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KEN: It&#039;s amazing how simple Rush was able to make things.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":396031,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[12,1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Rush Explains Herd Immunity for President Biden - and Those of You in Rio Linda - The Rush Limbaugh Show<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/daily\/2021\/05\/05\/rush-explains-herd-immunity-for-president-biden-and-those-of-you-in-rio-linda\/\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:title\" content=\"Rush Explains Herd Immunity for President Biden - and Those of You in Rio Linda - The Rush Limbaugh Show\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:description\" content=\"KEN: It&#039;s amazing how simple Rush was able to make things.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/APP-20201-050521-Classic-GOLD-Complex.jpg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"George Prayias\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"5 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/admin.rushlimbaugh.com\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/admin.rushlimbaugh.com\/\",\"name\":\"The Rush Limbaugh Show\",\"description\":\"Excellence In Broadcasting\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/admin.rushlimbaugh.com\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/daily\/2021\/05\/05\/rush-explains-herd-immunity-for-president-biden-and-those-of-you-in-rio-linda\/#primaryimage\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/APP-20201-050521-Classic-GOLD-Complex.jpg\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/APP-20201-050521-Classic-GOLD-Complex.jpg\",\"width\":640,\"height\":360},{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/daily\/2021\/05\/05\/rush-explains-herd-immunity-for-president-biden-and-those-of-you-in-rio-linda\/#webpage\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/daily\/2021\/05\/05\/rush-explains-herd-immunity-for-president-biden-and-those-of-you-in-rio-linda\/\",\"name\":\"Rush Explains Herd Immunity for President Biden - and Those of You in Rio Linda - The Rush Limbaugh Show\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/admin.rushlimbaugh.com\/#website\"},\"primaryImageOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/daily\/2021\/05\/05\/rush-explains-herd-immunity-for-president-biden-and-those-of-you-in-rio-linda\/#primaryimage\"},\"datePublished\":\"2021-05-05T19:33:00+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2021-05-06T19:28:51+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/admin.rushlimbaugh.com\/#\/schema\/person\/a2bc43fbe4b4e1ff4d1f092c6086a349\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/daily\/2021\/05\/05\/rush-explains-herd-immunity-for-president-biden-and-those-of-you-in-rio-linda\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/daily\/2021\/05\/05\/rush-explains-herd-immunity-for-president-biden-and-those-of-you-in-rio-linda\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/daily\/2021\/05\/05\/rush-explains-herd-immunity-for-president-biden-and-those-of-you-in-rio-linda\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Rush Explains Herd Immunity for President Biden &#8212;
