Greetings From Pfizer's Worldwide Headquarters

From every school science fair ever to Pfizer's own ~ Science Will Win ™

Saturday’s NYC Medical Freedom started in front of Pfizer Worldwide Headquarters. It is an aging relic of the Mad Men era of NYC as the business capitol of the world.

Pfizer is two blocks east of Grand Central Station, one block past the beautiful Chrysler Building their HQ looks drab and dated with its two story showcase windows entirely covered with billboards and slogans fit for a child’s first science fair.

The lone exception ~ How mRNA Vaccines Work ~ graphic below as an inset in one window not readable in my pics and inspired a rant that will be a separate post.

This is what democracy looks like and these are the people and ideas broadly purged from digital platforms and many now also excluded from public spaces. Many like me have had baseless bans exclude us from online interaction and now idiotic policies ignoring natural immunity exclude me from public spaces as a New Yorker. If we have any democracy left it’s not in the spook filled corporate media or the lobbyist owned Congress it is in our own hands to save ourselves. This isn’t about health.

Strangers offering comments as they pass is a classic New Yorker trait I adore; it’s a live audience with uncensored feedback and remarks, free speech in its rawest form.

It’s a refreshing departure from headlines to hear what folks really think. Math isn’t my subject but I can measure the temperature of vaccine mandates.

There’s nothing quite like the energy generated when passing cars and buses and bikers and truckers and public workers from USPS to FDNY, EMT and sanitation are tooting horns, flashing lights, waving fists with thumbs up and shouts of support.

From Pfizer HQ between Second and Third Ave the march went west across 42nd with Hudson Yards as the final destination. Without sunshine Times Square lights have a fun wild card effect on pics changing faster than the lightmeter can react.

Somewhere past Broadway it started to rain and it was light for about one crosstown block and folks popped on hoods and hats and marched westward. Press with crews had umbrella holders for their gear and props to the few media who not only show up but cover the whole events, speakers and along the entire route.

Then thunder boomed and lightening cracked and a torrential rain began with such speed and force I was soaked running ten yards from a shallow doorway to substantial scaffolding. After 15 minutes, huddled among hundreds under the leaky metal roof, there was a small break in the ferocity of the downpour. It took a nanosecond to decide to run for the subway across the street with my camera under my coat, cold and wet but happy to have the miles we covered and images for posterity.

Next Saturday, November 20th starts at noon at Columbus Circle with speakers then an ambitious march to Foley Square with another speakers event from 4pm. As always all pictures are free to share and enjoy. We the people will not be ruled by public SERVANTS who confuse their role as above us. See you in the streets. :~)
