How is this going to play out for new vaccines that have not been fully tested for long term effects (Covid-19?) ?
"On Wednesday, the state Department of Public Health announced the new requirement. All children aged 6 months or older who are attending Massachusetts child care, pre-school, kindergarten, K-12, and colleges and universities are required to get the flu vaccine by Dec. 31 for the 2020-2021 flu season unless either a medical or religious exemption is provided."
@SOCOM42, I had a lot more trust in the government and medical establishment when we were kids. I got the smallpox, polio, MMR, whooping cough, tetanus vaccines.........
I still get tetanus boosters as I'm always getting cuts and scrapes.
I'm not really sure I trust what the government is injecting people with these days?
That's only IF schools are open by then AND I can see many parents that don't agree with the requirement for other reasons than approved exemptions.....continuing with homeschooling, if they can figure out alternate child care if they work.
I sure miss the old days when we could trust our government. I'm not saying it was always worthy of our trust, but I guess ignorance was bliss. Life used to be so much simpler.
I remember my mom telling me of folks who would die from simple cuts, in the time before penicillin and more modern antibiotics. As a child, I had a neighbor of a similar age to me that had polio and had one arm much smaller than the other. So back then, when science came out with any vaccine or treatment, we were thrilled and all partook.
Not a good analogy. If someone chooses to eat improperly & die early, that is their free choice. Their being fat doesn't harm others. On the other hand, during a pandemic, the spread of the virus can greatly impact others. Your choice to not get vaccinated or take proper precautions, can impact many others... including the death of others.
I don't think mandatory vacs will happen while Trump is president. Sleepy Joe won't be elected; he said his first day in office he'd mandate a nationwide mask requirement. He has no clue that he just lost the election.
By the time the election rolls around, the majority of the states and local municipalities will have already mandated masks, so everyone will be used to it, and it won't make much of a difference if Sleepy Joe and Camel Hairs want to mandate it or not.
I will never get another flu shot as long as I live. Never had the flu. Got the shot 3 times. 1st time I felt like crap for a few days. 2nd time I was sick and missed 3 days of work. 3rd time I was in bed for a week. Never again.
I will note that my wife and kids are in the medical field and get the flu shot every year and have no issue with it. It doesn't always work though. 2 years ago even after the shot my wife had the flu twice, 2 different strains. No way in hell we are getting a hardly tested covid shot.
Had the government acted within the boundaries it is supposed to be constrained by, we would have achieved herd immunity through natural means a month or more ago.
New studies are showing that this may only need 50% or less spread to have herd immunity.
But no.
They stepped in to show us what big daddy gubmint can do, prolonged the ordeal, killed thousands with bad policy, and we still aren't there.
People are looking for a vaccine like it's the second coming to save us all.
This will go down in history as one of the biggest blunders the human race has ever forced on itself. The full ramifications of which we may not fully know for half a century.
Could the perpetrators of this masterful con have dreamed it would be so easy to fleece the sheeple? That they would so easily give up their freedoms, their money, and their rights, for a promised perceived safety.
After decades of indoctrination it's Easy Money.
