A woman broke into an anti-COVID mandate version of the Mariah Carey holiday classic ‘All I want for Christmas‘ during a California board meeting.
The singer, who identified herself as ‘Bridgette’ took to the microphone during a San Diego County Board of Supervisors meeting on Tuesday to oppose the extension of a local health emergency order to combat COVID-19, which the board ended up approving 3-2.
But among the members of the public who opposed the order Bridgette stood out as she put on a Santa hat and pulled out her cellphone. She then played the beat of Mariah Carey’s ‘All I Want for Christmas’, but changed up the lyrics to match her anti-mandate feelings.

‘I don’t want a lot for Christmas, just body autonomy,’ she started off. ‘I don’t care about the variants because of natural immunity.’
‘I just want my freedom now, the Constitution will show us how,’ she continued, off-key. ‘Make my dreams come true, End the state of emergency and acknowledge early treatment too.’
The song went on with lyrics about experimental treatments against COVID-19 and her opposition to masks.
‘Ivermectin not just horse paste, and hydroxychloroquine, Vitamin C and Vitamin D, and the Zinc. I won’t wear a useless mask, I don’t need to stay at home. And my kids should go to school, we don’t need to be alone,’ she sang.
‘I just want my freedom now, the constitution will show us how,’ She ended her performance. ‘Make my dreams come true. Baby end the emergency, let’s have a happy holiday everybody!’
Her minute and a half performance was met with cheers before someone else took to the podium to express his opposition to the measure, but without singing.
Among the recommendations the board voted for to combat COVID-19 were providing monoclonal treatments, expanding testing, including antibody and data collection, and a future presentation on natural immunity, Fox 5 San Diego reported.
The order comes as 55 cases of the Omicron variant have been sequenced in the U.S., and 1,700 have been detected worldwide.
Many of these cases are appearing in vaccinated people, and Pfizer officials reported Wednesday that the company’s two-dose Covid vaccine regimen may not be as effective against the new variant, but a booster dose would drastically increase the level of Omicron-fighting antibodies.
On Tuesday, the nation’s top infectious disease expert and leader of the U.S. Covid response, Dr Anthony Fauci, said that he believed the new variant was highly transmissible, but that infection from Omicron was not more severe than that of the Delta variant.
The nation is now averaging 120,000 new cases per day, the first time that mark has been reached since the latter stages of the summer Delta variant-fueled in September.
More than 60,000 Americans are hospitalized with the virus as well, according to official data, a jump of nearly 20 percent from two weeks ago.
