Overturn COVID-19 vaccine mandate for frontline workers
To overturn legislation to mandate healthcare workers to take COVID-19 vaccines.
End the mandate to have the vaccine. There isn’t enough scientific evidence to show the actual effectiveness of the vaccines against COVID-19. Health people without underlying health conditions risk developing health issues from the vaccines. Therefore it is not reasonable to remove people’s right to choose whether or not they want the vaccine.
