People of goodwill can disagree about the safety, efficacy and religious implications of a new vaccine for the coronavirus. But, everyone should agree on this point: No government can force anyone who has reached legal adulthood to be vaccinated for the coronavirus. Equally, no government can vaccinate minors for the coronavirus against the will of their parents or guardians. Please SIGN this…

NY Post reports “Scientists worry as more Americans say they’ll refuse COVID-19 vaccine”
Tara Granger, 36, has worked as a nurse for two decades in Suffolk County, NY, and she and her two children have been vaccinated every year. “Drugs are my life,” she says. “It’s what I learned in school.” But she’s been questioning the promised upcoming vaccine for COVID-19, in large part because of what she’s…
UPI reports “Biden considering making COVID-19 vaccine mandatory”
When asked whether he would require all Americans to take a COVID-19 vaccine once one’s available, Biden said, “It depends on the state and the nature of the vaccine when it comes out and how it’s being distributed.” Biden acknowledged such a mandate would be difficult to enforce completely, comparing it to measles vaccines required…
Urban Global Health Alliance reports “A Christian Statement For Pandemic Times”
The following exists as a refutation to the BioLogos Christian Statement which we feel is a shallow and incomplete examination of the issues at hand, and has strayed from the precepts of Christianity, and has subordinated it to scientific authority. We, the undersigned, join together as Christians, who uphold the authority of God’s Word, state…
National Health Freedom Action reports “Coercion to Get Flu Shots is Increasing Based on Fear and Dangerous Thinking”
Coercion: Fear of COVID-19 is being used by academic institutions, state agencies, and even New Jersey legislators, to coerce students and employees into now receiving influenza vaccines. These actions are forcing students and employees to choose between their educational goals or employment and their right to make their own medical decisions. Exemptions for personal or…
Principia Scientific International reports “Dr Fauci: ‘Disturbing’ So Few People Want The COVID Vaccine”
The mainstream media is admitting their disappointment. Despite six months of relentless propaganda to persuade us all to be willing guinea pigs for the new ‘rushed through’ COVID19 vaccine the spin hasn’t worked. A new survey reveals the number of “anti-vaxxers” in the population has doubled since May. Apparently, more of us are now checking the facts…
NEJM reports “Ensuring Uptake of Vaccines against SARS-CoV-2”
As Covid-19 continues to exact a heavy toll, development of a vaccine appears the most promising means of restoring normalcy to civil life. Perhaps no scientific breakthrough is more eagerly anticipated. But bringing a vaccine to market is only half the challenge; also critical is ensuring a high enough vaccination rate to achieve herd immunity….
NBC News reports “Many parents are hesitant to give their kids a Covid-19 vaccine. What if schools require it?
This is going to be a huge issue, and I don’t think most people understand that yet,” a school law attorney said. Michelle Vargas of Granite City, Illinois, has always vaccinated her 10-year-old daughter, Madison. They both typically get flu shots. But when a vaccine for the coronavirus eventually comes out, Vargas will not be giving it…
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…
