So what’s your point? Does it really matter if the states impose vaccination or the feds? You’re still getting vaccinated.
Yes. We are supposed to be under the rule of law. The Founding Fathers were very familiar with epidemics, and vaccination for smallpox was already known even then, no contingency for public emergencies was put into the Constitution. They felt that these matters were best dealt with by state and local governments.
