Virginia Health Commissioner says he’ll mandate a COVID-19 vaccine
WRIC ^ | August 21, 2020 | Jackie DeFusco, Emma North

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.

And I don’t trust them to get the real thing or at least the same thing they are going to give to us.

I could see them just taking a saline injection to say they did it and waiting themselves while they treat themselves with HCQ etc.

if actually implemented, I will use the religious exemption. I believe in the cult of Freedom. It’s not that big but it’s an exemption. And a highly-ho F to the U, Oliver, please sir can I have some more...

You make a great point.

They are virtually ignoring any and all other potential treatments and focusing only on the vaccine.

That alone makes me suspicious.

If they had put as much effort into studying the HCQ and other promising covid treatments, we’d have a safe, effective one now and the lockdown would be over.

But that would not serve the political purposes of those who want to be our overlords.

I identify as someone with a medical condition and therefore cannot have the vaccine.

I think 100% of the states will do this. There is solid SCOTUS precedent, and states have been moving to no-opt-out mandatory vaccines for years.

I don’t see a way to use presumption of innocence.
Federal religious rights would be a better try IMO.

We need guillotines. The reckoning is overdue.

Lampposts and rope are readily available.

Your best option is to move.

The next move is being required to have a "Vaccination Card" to travel to another state.

or worse....

Democrats say if you don’t take the needle or swallow the mixture, they’ll shut off your water and power, you won’t be able to access your bank account. Democrats are experts and making you hurt if ya don’t comply and obey.

No scientist would ever use definitely. So perhaps instead of parsing words you should understand the scientific process

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.

Something is better than nothing and our so-called Health Commission is a big political and medical “Nothing”.

Completely agree with and support everything you say.

If a vaccine makes it through phase 1, phase 2, and phase 3 clinical trials, it has been extremely well tested for safety and efficacy. We know just what the risks are (i.e. side effects) and what the rewards are (i.e. high likely it is to protect you from SARS-CoV-2 infection.) After that, it is up to each individual to make their own decision about what is best for their own personal health and wellbeing.
