Unfortunately, "Fake news" was invented before this pandemic. Those against vaccine mandates also believe in hundreds of conspiracy theories proven to be false. If they're not willing to educate themselves and be open to understanding how the vaccines will help, then they are not educated enough to make the decision to get the vaccine for themselves and their families. Please mandate vaccines. If you don't mandate vaccines, then I (as a parent) should have the right to require my child be put in a class with a teacher and other students who are vaccinated. Make it happen! This is a pandemic. Not a small outbreak.
