It is clear you don't understand vaccines as they relate to public health. Some vaccines are proven to prevent the transmission of the virus. If you can prove that vaccines prevent the transmission of a virus you can mandate a vaccine since it protects others.

But the government admitted the Covid vaccine did not prevent the transmission of the virus or even prevent you from contracting it. What it did was reduce the severity of your illness. It did moderate the severity of the disease if you contracted it.

I am not anti-vaccine, I have had five Covid vaccines. I am also old and "at risk". My experience in public health extends back to HIV and the search for a vaccine in the early 80s. I ran several companies in the past, that were very active in public health and research.

Do you have any relevant expertise? Everything you stick in your body has risks. Whether those risks make sense is something you should determine with your doctor, not something someone in Washington can determine.

Your attempt to equate the Covid vaccine with the measles, smallpox and other vaccines is evidence you don't understand the issue. The flu vaccine is a more relevant comparison, the flu vaccine basically helps you and because of that, it is not mandated. You need to study the issue more, rather than echo or parrot whichever term you prefer others and pretend you know what you are talking about.

A new study just released in Canada points to the pandemic responses by government as the primary driver of excess deaths. Excess deaths measure how many more people died than would normally have been expected to have died.

The report cited government regulations and lockdowns led to a massive increase in deaths due to mental health issues like suicide and substance abuse. Lockdowns also caused people to have not have health issues like cancer go undiagnosed or untreated. Then there are those who died from vaccine reactions.

Personally, because this study was a correlative study, it needs far more research, but it does point the fact, that government often issues mandates that "seem like a good idea" at the time without considering the impact on the individual freedom of its citizens and without much basis to support the mandate other than it sounded like a good idea at the time.

Now you argue my medical examples are "crap", but I accept that response for what it is. Your failure to have any idea of what you are talking about beyond the narrative you were given by the news media you trust. And so, you are trying to disparage me, which is another way of saying you have nothing to add.

Have a nice day and I encourage you to read more beyond your bubble.
