Virginia Health Commissioner says he’ll mandate a COVID-19 vaccine

State Health Commissioner Dr. Norman Oliver told 8News on Friday that he plans to mandate coronavirus vaccinations for Virginians once one is made available to the public.

Virginia state law gives the Commissioner of Health the authority to mandate immediate immunizations during a public health crisis if a vaccine is available. Health officials say an immunization could be released as early as 2021.

Dr. Oliver says that, as long as he is still the Health Commissioner, he intends to mandate the coronavirus vaccine.

“It is killing people now, we don’t have a treatment for it and if we develop a vaccine that can prevent it from spreading in the community we will save hundreds and hundreds of lives,” Oliver said.

Under state law, only people with a medical exemption could refuse the mandate.

Will you be first in line for the Moderna vaccine, too?

Whenever I read about vaccines being discussed, I think back to what a fiasco the Swine flu vaccine was back in the 70s.

Talk about a cure being worse than the disease ...

Unfortunately, two older Supreme Court cases ruled mandatory vaccines ARE legal and binding....I made a few posts on that subject...the rulings will have to be challenged, but the Suprene court could decide not to hear the case....time will tell.

What is it about Virginia that the government wants to start a civil war with its residents? If anyone in Indiana came out with this kind of garbage there’d be mass protests everywhere (I would hope!).

The only enforcement option I see is to forcibly isolate and/or quarantine individuals who refuse.

Americans still don't have the stomach to take care of this permanently.

I am not sure what this means or where it is coming from. But being an anesthesiologist I am aware of what intractable pain is. Perhaps you can enlighten me on the post???

If first to market and efficacious in all three phases. Yes. But I think the Oxford group is in the pole position

As a general order by the state, it wouldn’t fly very far legally. In areas such as employment and schooling, it might be a different story.”

Cboldt,

Can an employer make a vaccine a requirement for staying employed at that company?

What’s EGCG and bromelain? I already take quercetin, vitamin C and zinc.

I could do the research, but I’m a homebody and like conversation.

You are very trusting. Mrna vaccines have no track record at all, and fast tracking the testing on unproven technology does not improve confidence.

somebody send this idiot the decent medical papers and hospital/doctor reports on the successful use of Hydrochloroquine, Zinc, etc. in many cases of COVID virus cases.

That doesn't make enough money for anybody.

There are both early and late-stage treatments. Effective, safe, inexpensive and natural therapies.

That doesn't make enough money for anybody.

mark of the beast *shiver*

quote “so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark” The mark being proof of vaccination... closest thing to what is described in revelations I have ever seen.

The mask is a test run for the ‘mark’, and most are passing with flying colors. But don’t worry...you’ll be ‘raptured’ out before things get real bad. Right?
