Best tweet on vaccine mandates
Consider this.
Your boss offers you a sexual encounter. You politely say no thank you.
Your boss then says to you if you don’t have sex with him you’re fired.
So you do it in order to keep your job.
Is that consent?

From the Globe and Mail, Canada: Peramivir first new antiviral in years. This might be excellent: it might be just what severely ill patients with swine flu need. However, before using this unlicensed drug, wouldn’t you like to know what data exist on its safety and efficacy? What do we know about iv zanamivir and…
A letter to the BMJ questions the rationale for using certain new vaccines in India that fail to “result in significant reduction in disease burden” when older, cheaper and proven vaccines costing less than US $1.00 total per child are not being given to half the children in India. The letter also unmasks a scam…
January 31, 2020 I keep being asked about the coronavirus, and have been noncommittal about it, because there was not a lot of information to go on. But now there is more information, so I will say a little. 1. Anthony Fauci, head of the NIH’s infectious disease branch, said the death rate is 1-2%…
The issue of healthcare worker (HCW) flu vaccine mandates is of particular interest because no one has shown the shots help patients. Healthcare workers have had to accept many vaccines, including that for Hepatitis B, for decades. But flu vaccination mandates are particularly egregious. The flu shot is given yearly. It does not prevent flu…
Meryl Nass Oct 5 It’s one week later. The natural gas has all bubbled to the surface. Yet the pipeline owners have not been allowed to inspect the damage.

And – say if you are, New York State …
You speak out about this coercion. You have widespread support.
Your boss has coerced / harrassed / made uncomfortable, ten others.
They didn't all have the same experience. But they all felt afraid for their bodily autonomy, felt like their boss had no respect for what he claims to understand – Coercion Is Not Consent.
There is an outcry.
The media helps tell the world how wrong your boss's actions are, and how you deserve respect in your workplace, and in your body.
The Attorney General gets involved, in support of the victims.
Your boss is forced out.
That behavior is unacceptable, especially in a state with very vocal politics about rights, choice, workplace respect, and coercion is not consent.
Now you have a new boss. She agrees that the old boss mistreated you. You feel hopeful. There is some accountability for harrassment here.
Then your new boss proceeds to harrass millions.
Telling them every chance she gets that they need to open their bodies to what she wants. C'mon, it will be good. She'll give you bonuses.
Then she turns it up.
Says if you don't open your body to what she wants, you'll be fired.
This time, the media is on the side of your new boss. Bodily autonomy? How dare you feel entitled to that, they say.
The same attorney general gets involved again – but this time by threatening good doctors trying to offer an alternative to the dangerous, coercive, destructive world your boss and her team are insisting must be the Only Way.
This is New York State.
