Why is that?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Well, Sky News Australia reported that outdoor mask mandates and universal lockdowns may not be necessary to defeat COVID or very effective in defeating COVID.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;They reported that the science is far from settled on those questions, and they are right. It is far from settled.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>In the UK, even though most restrictions have been eased after a huge vaccination campaign, face masks are still being encouraged and mandatory vaccination passports are being considered to enter clubs, bars and universities.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2021\/08\/03\/16\/46239137-9856363-The_Fox_News_host_accused_the_various_governments_of_committing_-a-19_1628006125385.jpg\" height=\"360\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The Fox News host accused the various governments of &#8216;committing suicide&#8217; by kowtowing to the virus with draconian restrictions<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile in the US, there are ongoing debates about enforcing federal vaccine mandates, with senior Democrats eager to push towards herd immunity.<\/p>\n<p>Federal workers have been required to sign forms attesting they&#8217;ve been vaccinated or else comply with new rules on mandatory masking, weekly testing, distancing and more.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Despite these ongoing concerns about the virus from those in government, President Barack Obama is hosting an extravagant birthday party with 500 guests, even though the CDC is recommending only virtual gatherings.<\/p>\n<p>Carlson said it highlights the contempt shown by the elite towards the Americans who have suffered so much in the past 18 months.<\/p>\n<p>The former president is set to turn 60 on August 4, and is said to be planning a large soiree at his 7,000-square-foot mansion in the Edgarton section of Martha&#8217;s Vineyard next weekend.<\/p>\n<p>An official familiar with the plans told Axios that there are 475 confirmed guests for the party &#8211; including Oprah Winfrey, George Clooney and Steven Spielberg &#8211; with more than 200 staff members.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The CDC, however, recommends that people hold large gatherings virtually.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;So it turns out Martha&#8217;s Vineyard is exempt from the new COVID rules,&#8217;

Carlson said, before introducing\u00a0<span>Mark Steyn, a conservative author, to further discuss the plans for the party &#8211; especially the fact that 200 staff members would be on hand.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Steyn joked that he did not mind the large amount of staff members, saying they would be the most diverse group at the party.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#8216;We&#8217;re basically back to medieval\u00a0Europe, where it&#8217;s the same 400 people who go to all the parties,&#8217; he said. &#8216;As you know, Obama&#8217;s got Oprah and George Clooney, just as Oprah and George Clooney went to Harry and Meghan&#8217;s wedding, even though they never met either of them.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I mean you have to feel sorry for George and Oprah,&#8217; he continued, &#8216;just going to the parties of people you don&#8217;t know is a really sad and miserable existence.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;But I have to say, when you look at this, 500 guests, 200 fawning footmen and under butlers, what&#8217;s interesting to me is the way that people are actually perfectly happy with this,&#8217; Steyn said, adding: &#8216;A disturbing number of people are quite happy to be subjects.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;They say &#8220;Oh yeah, I couldn&#8217;t go to granny&#8217;s 90th birthday, but it&#8217;s perfectly fine for Barack Obama to have 500 people because our rulers are so much better than us.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Carlson replied that he agreed, and said: &#8216;The fierce egalitarian spirit of American society is dying and that&#8217;s our fault.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2021\/08\/03\/06\/46214477-9854775-image-a-38_1627967946804.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The party is said to include a performance by Pearl Jam, seen here at a concert in 2018<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2021\/08\/03\/16\/46214929-9856363-The_party_will_be_held_outside_the_Obamas_7_000_square_foot_home-a-45_1628002802025.jpg\" height=\"356\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The party will be held outside the Obamas&#8217;

will be on hand to ensure all proper protocols are being followed.<\/p>\n<p>It remains unclear what proof of a negative COVID test or a vaccine will be required, and whether guests will be required to wear masks.<\/p>\n<p>In an interview with CNN, though, Francis Collins, director of the National Institutes of Health, said Sunday on CNN that big parties should be avoided.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;If you&#8217;re talking about a small party like I might have at my house for six or eight people who are all fully vaccinated, I do not believe, at this point, we need to put masks on to be next to each other,&#8217;
