There is an annoying straw man argument that always muddied the waters regarding this issue, and still does:
Namely, the fact that there are good people who have defended vaccines - and there are strong arguments in favor of vaccines. All that is true but irrelevant.
That was NEVER the issue with the whole Covid fiasco..
The issue was forcing people to get vaccinated by government mandate or corporate policy, or by restricting travel and freedom of association for the unvaccinated, or by socially shaming and demonizing those who chose not to get vaccinated.
Reagan never would have been any part of that, and neither would President Trump.
Gas_dr never said that COVID vaccine should have been mandated.
