The Progressive Case Against Medical Mandates

There is little doubt that the COVID vaccine issue is dividing the nation. The people are tired of COVID restrictions, and the Biden administration paints the Covid vaccine as a kind of savior - the "only way back to normalcy." 

In part one of this article, we’ll discuss:

  • How Medical Mandates Heighten Inequality
  • Restricting Civil Liberties for the Greater Good - Necessary for Normalcy?
    • Criterion #1 Debunked: COVID is an apocalyptic danger.
    • Criterion #2 Debunked: COVID vaccines are necessary to stop the virus.
    • Criterion #3 Debunked: There are no serious risks from COVID vaccines.
