Ron DeSantis Signed COVID Law Allowing Forced Injections by ‘Any Means Necessary’
National File ^ | March 24, 2023 | FRANKIE STOCKES

The COVID reality is far different from the COVID narrative when it comes to Florida Governor Ron DeSantis...

Last Updated on March 24, 2023

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed COVID legislation in 2021 giving state health authorities the power to forcibly quarantine and inject anyone who “state health authorities” deem to be a risk to public safety, using “any means necessary” to do so.

On May 3rd, 2021, Florida GOP Governor Ron DeSantis signed Senate Bill 2006 into law, giving state health authorities massive power over the people of Florida, while authorizing the imprisonment and forced injection of anyone deemed a risk by those authorities. At the time of the bill’s signing, DeSantis and others in Florida’s government presented it as a ban on so-called “vaccine passports,” but buried within the legislation is an unprecedented attack on the civil liberties of American Citizens.

As a result of DeSantis-signed SB 2006, state health authorities have the power to “order an individual to be examined, tested, vaccinated, treated, isolated, or quarantined for communicable diseases,” if those health authorities believe the diseases “have significant morbidity or mortality and present a severe danger to public health.”

In the case of COVID, which has a more than 99% survival rate, state health authorities made this exact claim and, though false, it led to the biggest clampdown on civil liberties in American history.

Furthermore, SB 2006 states that if an individual is deemed to pose “a danger to the public health, the State Health Officer may subject the individual to isolation or quarantine.”

“If there is no practical method to isolate or quarantine the individual, the State Health Officer may use any means necessary to vaccinate or treat the individual.”Ron DeSantis signed SB 2006 into law, giving Florida’s “health authorities” unprecedented power over Floridians and their bodies.

Also under the DeSantis-signed legislation, “any order of the State Health Officer” is “immediately enforceable” by law enforcement, turning police officers into state quarantine and injection agents. What’s more, is that the law even calls for volunteers to help the authorities in their forced quarantine and injection quests, offering up rewards to those who are willing to help.

“Individuals who assist the State Health Officer at his or her request on a volunteer basis” are entitled to “benefits,” the legislation declares, immediately after laying out the ways that Florida’s State Health Officer can force injections into the arms of American Citizens.Those who volunteer to help force injections into the arms of their fellow Americans are “entitled” to “benefits,” the DeSantis-signed legislation proclaims.

The truth of SB 2006 comes to light as Governor DeSantis prepares for a widely-expected 2024 presidential run, and as his supporters try to paint him as a COVID freedom fighter, opposed to wide-reaching government mandates and power grabs.

In reality, that claim is far from the truth, and DeSantis has been slammed for having shut down Florida’s schools, businesses, and beaches by executive order, even stopping Floridians and tourists from celebrating America’s birthday on the Fourth of July.

President Trump has gone on the offensive in relation to DeSantis’s COVID actions in recent days, posting a video to Truth Social that shows Governor DeSantis using a 100-year-old World War 2 veteran as a “guinea pig” and having him injected with a COVID on television. The veteran, Henry Sayler, died just four months later.

“Ron DeSoros used a 100-year-old WW2 veteran as a vaccine Guinea pig on live TV. The veteran, Henry Sayler, died 4 months later. But sure, DeSantis would have fired Fauci,” President Trump wrote in a scathing post to TruthSocial.

>>I should vote Libertarian?

Only the GOP vote ever gets split in elections.

Dems vote for the party candidate under the penalty of death.

But this is moot since the Dems have perfected the Steal with nothing to stop them.

I think he believed what the people he relied on running public health, told him.

I am of the belief that two great inventions underly our country's former prosperity and happiness, the common law and public health. The actions of our deep state public health bureaucracy has done as much to undermine my faith in the value of modern medical practice as the FBI and DOJ to my belief in the underlying values of American justice.

This country has fallen down a steep rocky slope in recent years. I don't know whether arresting the fall or reaching our demise with a loud and painful thud at the bottom is the fastest path to rebuilding what used to be a great country before we decided we wanted to rule the world instead of following the Socratic prescription to rule ourselves.

Trump never was for mandates. Your analogy is false.

Dem votes for Nader and the Greens in 2000 made the difference.

That would be a double-edged sword, politically, because it would acknowledge that he made a mistake to begin with and could be portrayed as an example of someone who changes his positions easily for political expediency.

Perhaps you should go to the link in the story. I didn’t see anything about vaccines. I did see things to do with hurricanes

Totally agree with you.

My experience has been that DeSantis has done a lot of GREAT things for Florida.

Those who damn the guy as a demonic leftist ... I just can’t listen to them, considering what I’ve literally SEEN him literally DO.

I think you make a good comparison analogy with the corrupted justice and corrupted medicine examples.

In the Original Post (OP) above, the article's author is trying to create unwarranted alarm; and the following writing by the author, is not true:
"buried within the legislation is an unprecedented attack on the civil liberties of American Citizens"

A 1905 case before the U.S. Supreme Court confirmed:

A state may enact a compulsory vaccination law, since the legislature has the discretion to decide whether vaccination is the best way to prevent smallpox and protect public health. The legislature may exempt children from the law without violating the equal protection rights of adults if the law applies equally among adults.

U.S. Supreme Court
Jacobson v. Massachusetts, 197 U.S. 11 (1905)
Jacobson v. Massachusetts
No. 70
Argued December 6, 1904
Decided February 20, 1905
197 U.S. 11

Florida Senate bill SB2006 lays out protection for people, as follows:
140 creating s. 381.00316, F.S.;
141 prohibiting a business entity from requiring patrons
142 or customers to provide documentation certifying
143 vaccination against or recovery from COVID-19;

144 prohibiting governmental entities from requiring
145 persons to provide documentation certifying
146 vaccination against or recovery from COVID-19;

147 prohibiting educational institutions from requiring
148 students or residents to provide documentation
149 certifying vaccination against or recovery from COVID
150 19;

208 (4) It is further the intent of the Legislature to minimize
209 the negative effects of an extended emergency, such as a
210 pandemic or another public health emergency. The Legislature
211 recognizes that there are significant negative impacts on
212 children and families associated with school closures during a
213 public health emergency such as the COVID-19 pandemic. The
214 Legislature also recognizes the significant negative impacts of
215 such emergencies on the economy due to business closures.
216 (5) It is further the intent of the Legislature that all
217 aspects of emergency preparedness, response, and recovery be
218 made transparent to the public to the greatest extent possible.

The bill makes clear:

1056 (d) The State Health Officer, upon declaration of a public
1057 health emergency, may take actions that are necessary to protect
1058 the public health. Such actions include, but are not limited to:

1097 4. Ordering an individual to be examined, tested,
1098 vaccinated, treated, isolated, or quarantined for communicable
1099 diseases that have significant morbidity or mortality and
1100 present a severe danger to public health. Individuals who are
1101 unable or unwilling to be examined, tested, vaccinated, or
1102 treated for reasons of health, religion, or conscience may be
1103 subjected to isolation or quarantine.

1104 a. Examination, testing, vaccination, or treatment may be
1105 performed by any qualified person authorized by the State Health
1106 Officer.

1107 b. If the individual poses a danger to the public health,
1108 the State Health Officer may subject the individual to isolation
1109 or quarantine. If there is no practical method to isolate or
1110 quarantine the individual, the State Health Officer may use any
1111 means necessary to vaccinate or treat the individual.

Reality/truth, I doj’t say it as an excuse. Put it this way, I don’t believe for one second Trump wanted millions to die from these shots. I do believe those in charge of this plus the big pharma companies did, and/or did not care if they did. Incredibly huge difference.

“Everyone needs to read the latest Gorsuch decision. The man does a brilliant job of reminding us of the wisdom of the ages engrained in our founding charters, and that careful reflection, consideration and reconsideration are a part of wise governance, not standing behind knee-jerk initial imperial decrees.”


That was indeed a well-written opinion on the freedoms that were denied to us as a nation over the past few years.

I posted an excerpt of it last night, but it received only a few responses. The link is here:

You did a great service in posting this. Before commenting, which I have now done there, I needed time to read the actual official Supreme Court opinion.

One of my great criticisms of the legal reporting industry is that they write about opinions sumarizing them, often badly, always in accurately, incompletely and out of context and almost never with a link to the actual opinion.

And of course SC decisions are often examples of the best and clearest writing in the English language, thoroughly researched and edited by some of the smartest legal minds in the country, but ultimatley written in the voice of the assigned author, and some SC justices are brilliant scintillating writers of the highest caliber.
