I am 100% opposed to the vaccine mandate, particularly for children. The science is overwhelming:
1) The risk posed to children by the vaccines is substantially higher than the risk posed to them by Covid-19. https://www.fda.gov/media/144414/download
2) Therapeutic treatments have been proven worldwide to be extraordinarily effective at curing Covid-19 infections. If these treatments were made more widely available, rather than artificially restricted by governmental and bureaucratic institutions, we would be well on our way to herd immunity already. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7698683/
3) There is evidence to believe these vaccines are actually causing the mutations , and are counter-productive. https://dailyreckoning.com/are-vaccines-making-covid-worse/
4) There is no legal basis for the mandates as the only Covid-19 vaccines available within in the U.S. are all under Emergency Authorization Use. The singular-approved vaccine (Comarnity) is not available anywhere within the U.S. Not a single person has been vaccinated with this supposedly "approved vaccine."
5) Hundreds of thousands have reported adverse reactions to the vaccines, including several thousand deaths from the vaccines themselves. https://vaers.hhs.gov/data.html
And most importantly, the religious freedom upon which our Republic was founded is the fundamental right by which all other freedoms are derived. The very first amendment to the U.S. Constitution guaranteed Freedom of Religion. The agreement to add this amendment was essential to the agreement of multiple States and ratification of the U.S. Constitution. The amendment was added after the insistence of Founding Father and historic Virginian George Mason and it was based largely upon the Virginia Declaration of Rights, which he had authored. https://www.loc.gov/rr/program/bib/ourdocs/mason.html
There is no scientific, medical, historical, or Constitutional basis for this proposed mandate. It should be tossed to the waste bin once and for all.
