DeSantis has been clear that he does not think vaccines should be a requirement to participate in everyday activities. He was the first governor to prohibit vaccine mandates for public employees and private businesses. The Florida legislature then passed SB-2006, prohibiting vaccine passports of any kind. The Florida Department of Health recently issued a rule based on the law that includes a $5,000 fine for violations.

Since Biden’s announcement, DeSantis has been particularly critical of a mandate interfering with someone’s ability to make a living. Gainesville city officials decided to implement a vaccine mandate for its employees anyway. That is why the governor made a case for natural immunity in his speech there. DeSantis is especially concerned about emergency services and frontline workers, many of whom worked through the pandemic and have already recovered from COVID-19. His concerns are spot on.

A few years ago of all the fake checkers Politifact was the only one who had the intellectual honesty to give the “hands up don’t shoot” narrative their highest pants on fire rating.

PolitiFact Abruptly Breaks With the Preferred COVID-19 Narrative and Actually Agrees with Florida Governor DeSantis

The important thing is not what another sycophant lying website says, but rather that they have broken with the party line. It means there are some lies with such enormity that even Pinocchio won't tell it.

Ron DeSantis said something about recovered immunity from COVID-19 that PoilitFact did not completely debunk.

Did not completely TRY to debunk - the word "debunk" means to expose as untrue, and I doubt PolitiFact has ever done that with anything DeSantis has ever said. Writing quality is down across the board - both on the Left and the Right.

They say mostly true but notice how they don’t say entirely true, which it is. They think there are degrees of truth. They won’t say anything definite about COVID because as soon as anything about COVID becomes “settled science” we will be able to argue them out of masks lockdowns and vaccine mandates. Up until now everything about COVID is may, might, could based on whatever if they want to get people worried about. As soon as they say masks work, we can argue the fact. As long as they don’t know, they can always say maybe to our maybe not. It’s like a philosophical argument about the existence of God. We don’t know.

I think this is the "fact" that everyone needs to see; the current mortality rate is lower than it has been since the start of the "pandemic" and is now on par with the flu across ALL age groups... so why do we need federally mandated vaccines?
