George Conway: ‘Lying, intimidating, bullying. That’s Trump at his worst, and that’s Trump always’

The biggest problem with vaccine mandates is that it creates a mechanism of distrust.
Consider the following hypothetical scenario: a public health official mandates a new vaccine. He is pretty sure that the vaccine is net beneficial and safe, but even he can't be totally sure because there's always a chance that the truth lies outside of the confidence intervals of the research he is using. But the health official mandates it anyways. Then, during the rollout, a safety signal appears. Perhaps the vaccine is actually contraindicated for some people and it's becoming clear if you just look at the data. What does the public health official do? If he tells everyone about the safety signal then he admits that the thing he forced on people harmed them, revealing his crime against humanity. Thus, the health official ignores, minimizes, covers-up the safety signal. What else can he do? He can't admit he committed a crime against humanity, can he? Of course not! No person would do that, if they had already mandated it.
Thus, by mandating it, he has incentivized himself to NEVER find a safety signal. If he had just recommended the vaccine, however, stating that 'right now here is what the evidence suggests', then when and if a safety signal appears, he is more likely to alert the public because by doing so he wouldn't be admitting to an awful crime.
This scenario hopefully explains how vaccine mandates (especially for a new vaccine ) create a mechanism of distrust.

They do their own research.
They die their own deaths.
R.I.P. WA State Trooper Robert Lamay.
An anti-vaxer – who, like many of his first responder comrades was herded by Faux Nuze, 45, and Smoked Joe like a sheep to the slaughter – and who left his job due to his refusal of the vaccine, then left behind his family due to death by covid – the number 1 cop and fire fighter killer 2 years running.
Please consider donating to his family's go-fund-me campaign as they recover from the very real impact of Robert (and others like him) being swept up in the mass collective psychosis that is the anti-vax movement.

Vaccine hesitancy explained from my perspective:
I had Covid and didn’t even know I had until I tested positive. Since the “vaccines” doesn’t stop the spread, I don’t really see a point in getting them. I really don’t want to take the risk considering it’s not FDA approved and was only approved for emergency use authorization which makes the pharmaceutical companies and hospitals exempt from responsibility. Also considering Pfizer’s former criminal activity, the media being 70% sponsored by pharmaceutical companies and the government’s/pharmaceutical companies’s history with corruption, most notably the Tuskegee experiments in which they experimented on African men using vaccines, idk. I’m good on that. Thank you tho.

Dr. Schaffner is a CNN shill… he hasn’t read the recent data on why the v8x is not working. IT is blunting the Innate immune response (to a degree that is still poorly understood). We still don’t know the deleterious effects nor why the V8x efficacy is waning. ADE and v8x-induced immuno-suppression may be occurring.
And now THEY want to give it to kids without any safety data. This is INSANE!
