Governments Around The World Offer Extravagant Bribes In Desperate Effort To Increase COVID Vaccine Uptake

While indigenous communities in Mexico are rejecting the COVID-19 shot, the international effort to convince the public to take the jab is in full effect.

In early March, CNN reported that Whole towns are refusing Covid-19 vaccines in Mexico”, profiling two of more than a dozen municipalities which have rejected COVID-19 shots for one reason or another. CNN reported on statements made by residents of Aldama and San Juan Cancuc, small indigenous towns located in the central highlands of the Mexican state of Chiapas.

“Why would I get vaccinated? I’m not sick. It wouldn’t be good if they tried to force us to get vaccinated. I don’t know,” María Magdalena López Santís, an Aldama resident, told CNN.

The indigenous communities of Mexico (and many Mexicans in general) have a history of mistrusting the federal government. After generations of being ignored or colonized, the communities are largely autonomous and operate under their own rule of law. It is this history which has caused several communities in Chiapas and other parts of Mexico to reject the COVID-19 shots altogether.

Of course, CNN reports that “a lack of information and conspiracy theories that have spread in the region like wildfire are to blame for vaccine hesitancy.” Aldama’s town secretary Tomás López Pérez told CNN that because his people “don’t really know what vaccines are made of, we believe that they contain the [Covid-19] virus and that’s the main reason why people don’t want to get vaccinated.”

On February 1st, José López López, mayor of San Juan Cancuc, released a letter to State health authorities detailing why his town would not accept the COVID shot. López López said the people of San Juan Cancuc will, in fact, reject all vaccines from the Mexican state.

The Chiapas State Health Department has stated that it will respect the autonomy of the indigenous populations.

I recently traveled to San Juan Cancuc to find out for myself why these indigenous communities are rejecting the shots. The indigenous of San Juan Cancuc speak a specific dialect of the indigenous Tseltal language known as San Juan Cancuc Tseltal. With the help of a local man interpreting from English to Spanish and Spanish to Tseltal I was able to communicate with members of the San Juan Cancuc council. Although they would not speak on camera without José López López being present, they shared a wealth of information regarding how their community has been responding to COVID-19.

For starters, the council of San Juan Cancuc said they had seen zero COVID-19 cases in their community. They also said the town never enforced masks or social distancing. The council stated that they have their own methods for healing the sick that do not align with the Mexican government’s policies.

The council stated that before the release of the February letter, the community rejected trucks bringing vaccines and other support from the government. The community rejected the trucks two times before finally releasing the letter making it publicly known they were rejecting the COVID shots. The council said doctors attempting to come into town to deliver vaccines were told by the state authorities they could not guarantee their safety if they entered San Juan Cancuc.

The council also noted that laws had been passed to ensure that the “not one more vaccine” policy could not be changed once a new Mayor is elected. When asked what message they would like to share with the rest of the world, the council stated that, “Everybody should do what they know to be right.” They also said they believed their community has thrived because they are organized and unified.

I also spoke with two residents of indigenous village Betania, about 30 minutes south of San Cristóbal de las Casas, Chiapas. The residents stated that their entire town had rejected the COVID-19 shots as well. They also noted that the state government is offering 950 pesos (about $50 USD) to residents who get the shots, with additional payments per child in some cases. The indigenous woman we spoke with said that the local health authorities call residents and attempt to persuade them to take the vaccine. In some cases residents are told they cannot continue to get healthcare without the shot. Still, the people of Betania have rejected the shots.

Burgers, Fries, Donuts, and Bribes

The idea that governments might literally bribe citizens with money may seem shocking or immoral, especially when it comes to indigenous populations in small villages of Mexico. However, this practice is becoming more common in the United States and Europe.

A few months back Krispy Kreme made headlines after they offered free daily donuts for customers with proof of vaccine. Now, state governments are stepping in with offers of burgers, fries, tickets to events, and cash.

In Illinois, 50,000 vaccinated residents are being offered free tickets to Six Flags theme parks. The tickets are valued at a cost of $4 million. In Maine, those vaccinated are offered anything from free gift cards to hunting and fishing licenses. Vaccinated residents of Ohio are now eligible to enter a lottery with a $1 million prize for five vaccinated Ohioans.

Some of the United States’ metropolitan cities are also offering prizes for those willing to submit their body and mind to the experimental medical treatment. In Detroit, residents are being bribed with $50 prepaid debit cards if they drive another person to a vaccination site. There are currently no limits on how much money someone can make with this scheme. In the Houston area, Harris County recently announced $250,000 to be used for gift cards, events and other incentives.

Residents of New York City are being offered free 7-day metro cards, tickets to sporting events, the Bronx Zoo, Brooklyn Botanical Garden and Lincoln Center. On Thursday, Mayor de Blasio announced that those who take the shot can receive vouchers for free burgers and fries from Shake Shack. “I want you to look at these French fries and think about how great it is to get vaccinated,” Mayor de Blasio stated in a disgusting display of incentivizing the people of New York to get an experimental, unapproved treatment in exchange for a, generally, unhealthy meal.

While the bribes of money and food are being offered to incentivize people to get the COVID shot, the most disturbing aspect is the attempt to convince the public that the only way to go “back to normal” is if they submit to a shot and/or a vaccine passport. In fact, earlier this week President Joe Biden announced new rules relating to mask wearing, stating, “The rule is now simple: get vaccinated or wear a mask until you do.” The message being broadcast to the public is clear: if you do not get a shot, you will continue to be subjected to COVID-19 restrictions. If you do not comply, you cannot go back to “normal.”

Additionally, those who are choosing to wait to get the shot (or not getting it all) are being pressured, demonized, and censored online for expressing their concerns and reasons for hesitating. While the residents of Betania and San Juan Cancuc are unified in their opposition to the treatments, the residents of the United States are less unified and less organized. The indigenous communities of Chiapas can continue to live their lives as they are accustomed to, but the residents of Houston, New York City, Detroit and elsewhere are facing an increasingly totalitarian environment.

The only way forward is for the people of the U.S. and beyond to get organized and directly oppose and reject the forced vaccine mandates and calls for vaccine passports. Anything less than a unified opposition will fail to stop the march of COVID1984.

  1. It’s pas time for some law firm or individual attorney to step up and take this to court for the American people, to represent us in a Class Actin lawsuit. We need to SUE President Biden after his comment and end this. He’s not going to force a mask on our faces unless we SUBMIT to a unapproved OR A APPROVED anything! THE GOVT OFFICIALS HAVE GONE INSANE.

  2. Hi Derrick, Thanks so much for reporting on this. I’m in Tepoztlan, south of Mexico City and east of Cuernavaca, in the state of Morelos. Everyone here is masked — even young guys doing physical labor or riding motorbikes in the open air. Expats of all ages (and many Mexicans as well) have been lining up in droves to be vaccinated. I came here last fall to escape all that, but I might as well be back in Vermont. It’s good to hear that some communities in Mexico are pushing back, and I’m not at all surprised that they’re indigenous.

  3. I’m sorry (not sorry), but since they insist on keeping this crap going, my only response will have to be a resounding *F/U!!* They’ve destroyed the businesses of many, scared the crap out of, and tortured children, harassed, arrested, and threatened still others, and the economy is on the verge of total collapse, so it’s time to make a firm stand and say, **NO!** No, I’m absolutely not getting ANY injections, and I’m no longer participating in ‘Operation COVY,’ in any way. If people wanna take the vaccine, great, enjoy, I’ll be over here not taking it. Pfuck Pfizer, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson, and the rest of the traveling show potion pushers.

    After ~1.5 years now I know a lot of people that were told they tested positive, but I don’t really know anyone that actually got sick. Very strange. Unless…….

    “I want you to look at these French fries and think about how great it is to get vaccinated.” *LOL* They really don’t think this stuff through, do they?

    I haven’t seen them using sexual bribes…..yet. Don’t they always say, “sex sells?” Get ready for “30 minutes with a hooker to get vaccinated.”

    Just curious….do you get a shake with that burger and fries? 🙂

  4. Walmart is bribing employees with a $75 reward, plus a Mask Is No Longer Required For Duty, to get the jab. This is sooo sick!

  5. “CNN reports that “a lack of information and conspiracy theories that have spread in the region like wildfire are to blame for vaccine hesitancy.”

    ie, CNN that “enough information and theories have spread in the region to blame for vaccine hesitancy.”

  6. I doubt if they don’t understand “no” that holding the hand up in front of the needle would help. I can sooner imagine a small horde of orderlies taking him down and him getting forcefully injected, or even the nurse just shoving the needle into his hand and cackling malevolently, *queuing in* the orderlies. That is not a fantasy in some places RIGHT NOW. This is on a scale of tyranny and worse tyranny. Start calling it what it is.

  7. It sure is nice to get a second opinion from a doctor (in any capacity) serving a ZERO Covaids Case community. I sure would like to hear more from communities like THAT, and not from Fauci or the CDC or any other government sponsored experts or “experts”.

  8. Currently in Thailand there is a city that is handing out raffle tickets to “vaxxers” to go into a draw to win a cow!!
