Physicians for Informed Consent delivers statement “Opposing UC Regents’ Flu Vaccine Mandate”
On behalf of hundreds of physician and scientist members of Physicians for Informed Consent, I am writing out of our concern that the bodily integrity of UC students, faculty, and staff is being potentially sacrificed by the recent UC Regents’ flu vaccine mandate,1 with no robust scientific justification. Patients have reported becoming ill following flu vaccination….
Mises Institute reports “Mandatory Covid-19 Vaccination Is Unethical and Unscientific”
If a vaccine is 100 percent effective, there is no justification for mandatory vaccination. Anyone who wishes to be protected can voluntarily take the vaccine. It would not be possible for someone declining the vaccine to harm someone who voluntarily takes the vaccine. Any call for a mandatory vaccine is an explicit admission that the vaccine…
Yahoo News reports “Can coronavirus vaccine mistrust be overcome?”
Since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic, experts have agreed that the only way for life to truly return to normal is through the development of a vaccine.

Tenth Amendment Center reports “COVID-19 an Early Warning for Vaccine Mandates”
The history of totalitarian regimes has shown that those who voice dissent early on are often viewed as loons or trouble makers and that, generally, it’s not until the regimes are at their worst that those early dissenters enjoy some restoration of their reputations.

Lifesite News reports “Doctors lay out plan to ‘punish’ people who refuse coronavirus vaccine: ‘There is no alternative’”
‘Simply put, getting vaccinated is going to be our patriotic duty,’ and America should consider making it difficult for the unvaccinated to participate in society, three doctors wrote. A coronavirus vaccine should be mandatory, and tax penalties, higher insurance premiums, and denial of many government and private services ought to be considered for those refusing…
National Law Review reports “Vaccinate or Terminate – Mandatory Vaccination As Workplace Policy”
To some, a COVID-19 vaccine will be a welcome development that will permit employment to return to the pre-pandemic paradigm. Others, however, may legitimately believe that a vaccine threatens their health or spiritual well-being. A widely available vaccine that immunizes the population generally may well support individual opt-outs from vaccination, but these factors should be…

National Geographic reports “COVID-19 vaccines could become mandatory. Here’s how it might work.”
YOU WALK TOWARD the arena, ready for a big game, tickets in hand. But what you see is a long line wrapping around the corner of the building and a bottleneck at the entrance as people search their pockets and purses for a small piece of paper. To be cleared to enter, you’ll also need that…
