Is anybody for this? I thought our elected officials represented the people? I haven't heard one person say their in favor of this.



Edit: Except the elitist class and the government bureaucrats they pay off, I haven't heard one sane, rational argument in favor of forced government medicine.

Here's a better idea! How about Cuomo stop sexually harassing women?! I think that's a lot better than forcing vaccinations on people.

Half of Americans have determined that not getting vaccinated and allowing the American population to act like a virally infested petri dish thus requiring perpetual masking and shutdowns in the name of "freedom" is the way to go.

So be it.

Huh???
No masks no shutdown in Sweden, and they are fine.
Some are starting to say vaccinating too soon is causing the virus to mutate faster instead of letting it run it’s course.

How is that so? That seems ironic.

Citing year old propaganda?

Sweden has not fared as well as pandemic deniers were claiming in the summer of 2020.

[Sweden] has the highest per capita COVID-19 death rate of all Scandinavian countries. In the last month [December 2020], Sweden has reported a 30 percent increase in the number of confirmed cases, which jumped from 5,726 to 7,441 and about 2,000 more deaths, according to data collected by Our World in Data.

Amid a steep rise in new cases, it seems many Swedes have lost confidence in the government's response to the pandemic and strategy widely credited to Anders Tegnell, Sweden's top epidemiologist.
Source

Sweden has 3 times the Covid mortality rate of Denmark and over 10 times the covid mortality rate of Norway.

Since the statistics have come out, Swedes are voluntarily wearing masks, social distancing, and businesses and employers are promoting work from home and limiting visitor numbers in public places. Getting Swedes, who have a culture of respect for the wellbeing of others, to comply with common sense hygeine practices is easy compared to a certain kind of contrarian, self-interested American who would sooner put a bum's wet socks on their feet than wear a mask for 10 minutes at Walmart.

Oh right, that graph came out on January 11th. Citing year end tallies for 2020.
Anyway I’m not responsible for other people’s poor life habits.

BTW Sweden’s population is 10.23 million. Their total covid deaths are 14,000 an change.
That’s ummmmmm carry a 2, add a 1….ummm
Yup 0.0014 !!!! Gosh, that’s no where near 1 percent
Oh yea fun fact. Heart disease claimed more than 16,000 Swedes. Hmmm and we are worrying about covid????
