Sara Middleton<\/a> –\u00a0 <\/span> January 9, 2021<\/span><\/p>\n (NaturalHealth365<\/a>) It\u2019s been over a year since the COVID-19 pandemic began.\u00a0 Now, even as lockdowns and curfews persist and the vaccine rollout continues across America, we continue to find ourselves surprised by the troubling, if not creative ways, that government officials attempt to squeeze more control out of the situation.<\/p>\n The latest harrowing example is a New York State-sponsored proposal<\/a>\u00a0that demands\u00a0detention camp for anyone identified as a \u201ccase, contact or carrier\u201d\u00a0<\/em>of a contagious disease.\u00a0 It\u2019s a harrowing revelation \u2013 and would be so even if there weren\u2019t<\/em> already serious questions about the COVID-19 testing accuracy and false-positive rates.<\/p>\n The New York State Assembly bill in question is called Bill A416 and is sponsored by a Democratic member of the New York State Assembly, N. Nick Perry.\u00a0 As of January 4, 2021, the bill has been introduced to the 2021-2022 Legislative Session and is currently in front of the Assembly Health Committee.<\/p>\n Bill A416<\/strong>, in summary<\/strong>, \u201c[r]elates to the removal of cases, contacts, and carriers of communicable diseases that are potentially dangerous to the public health.\u201d\u00a0 The bill doesn\u2019t mention COVID-19 specifically, and a similar bill was also introduced (and fell flat) during the Legislative Session of 2015-2016.<\/p>\n In attempts\u00a0to blur the lines with pages of legalese, the bill continues:<\/p>\n \u201cUpon determining by clear and convincing evidence that the health of others is or may be endangered by a case, contact or carrier, or suspected case, contact or carrier of a contagious disease that, in the opinion of the governor \u2026 may pose an imminent and significant threat to the public health resulting in severe morbidity or high mortality, the governor or his or her delegee \u2026 may order the removal and\/or detention of such a person or a group of such persons by issuing a single order, identifying such persons either by name or by a reasonably specific description of the individuals or group being detained.\u201d<\/p>\n The bill would allow officials to:<\/p>\n NOT present in the bill are any specific timeframes, criteria, or locations for these detentions \u2013 details that, if the bill were to pass, would ultimately be left up to the discretion of the NY governor (at the moment, Governor\u00a0<\/em>Andrew Cuomo).<\/p>\n https:\/\/www.naturalhealth365.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Sara Middleton –\u00a0 January 9, 2021 (NaturalHealth365) It\u2019s been over a year since the COVID-19 pandemic began.\u00a0 Now, even as lockdowns and curfews persist and the vaccine rollout continues across America, we continue to find ourselves surprised by the troubling, if not creative ways, that government officials attempt to squeeze more control out of the … Continue reading COVID \u201cDetention Camps?\u201d State government proposal revealed<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[15],"tags":[6574,15519,14826,15521,36,22,15520],"class_list":["post-19355","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-pale-horse","tag-andrew-cuomo","tag-bill-a416","tag-covid-19","tag-detentions","tag-disaster","tag-disease","tag-n-nick-perry"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack-related-posts":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p8fAkI-52b","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/setapartbytruth.org\/wordpress-watchman\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19355","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/setapartbytruth.org\/wordpress-watchman\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/setapartbytruth.org\/wordpress-watchman\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/setapartbytruth.org\/wordpress-watchman\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/setapartbytruth.org\/wordpress-watchman\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19355"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/setapartbytruth.org\/wordpress-watchman\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19355\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":19357,"href":"https:\/\/setapartbytruth.org\/wordpress-watchman\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19355\/revisions\/19357"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/setapartbytruth.org\/wordpress-watchman\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19355"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/setapartbytruth.org\/wordpress-watchman\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=19355"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/setapartbytruth.org\/wordpress-watchman\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19355"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}\n
