Bonus points for Marty Makary (a surgeon with no particular experience in infectious disease) being the spokesperson for this. I wonder if he’s the only licensed doctor they could find in the government willing to advocate for this policy?

    Yeah, but people getting vaccines was bothering the cons. Same with people wearing masks. The cons shaping the world in such a way so that things they chose to politicize and obsess over no longer are bothersome to them is not being the “nanny state”, in their ridiculous redefinition of that term.

      Point is, their big rallying cry was that people should be able make their own decision about whether to get the vaccine (or wear a mask), and now that they’re in charge they’re controlling what people can do, the very thing they complained about using terms like “nanny state”. Some repub-controlled places are banning mask-wearing as well so expect that to go national soon.
