No Vaccine Mandates
A Blog about No Vaccine Mandates 2023
A Bit of Background
The following backgrounds help summarize the author's views on both the general topic: Federal and more specifically No Vaccine Mandates 2023 as it relates to that topic.
Brief Summary of Federal
This should be a fairly limited bills area for management the overall structures like highways, military, federal buildings, federal laws, and the like. However it has become the micro manager of all micro managers. They get involved in areas that no federal government should be involved in, and shift more power upward. This has led to each party trying to run over the other party in the eyes of the voters, all the while doing everything possible to maintain their power. They do this by holding onto all of the money, and claiming they know best how it should be spent. But they run debts so badly that no one should be looking to them as an example of anything other than the way to overspend and go further into debt.
Summary of No Vaccine Mandates 2023
These bills would prevent mandates concerning COVID19 vaccines. Multiple variants have been proposed.
Blog Summary
It merely prohibits the Federal government from enacting mandates on individuals. Some of the mandates were already struck down. I feel they should all have been struck down.
This bill was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary.
No Vaccine Mandates
Published: 2023-11-09
This will prohibit the United States from requiring an individual to receive a COVID-19 vaccine, whether it was approved for emergency use or full approval. Or prohibit the United States from requiring an individual under the age of 18 to be vaccinated for COVID-19. This would not prevent a parent, guardian, conservator from providing consent to be vaccinated.
This bill automatically sunsets 5 years after being enacted.
It goes on to require the risk information required under applicable State or Federal law be followed, in order to ensure that the individual is making an information decision when consenting. I think this is extraordinarily important considering the extreme lack of informed consent surrounding the administration of COVID-19 vaccines to date.
It requires the information as to whether an individual is vaccinated or not to be kept confidential when it is disclosed to an individual for other purposes. Honestly I do not believe an employer should be permitted to request medical information such as this, it seems in violation of HIPAA laws. I do not believe there is a general consumer transaction that should require this disclosure either. Obviously in a medical situation this information may be requested. Although I do not believe this information is relevant when it comes to things like transplants. But I suspect they will continue to include less than relevant information here, and perhaps continue to include those on list for transplants that would be more harmful to the transplanted organ than someone merely refusing a COVID-19 vaccine.
This bill seems to be fairly limited in it's reach, and has it's own time limitation. It is fairly straight forward and should be moving forward. If it merely stopped at prohibiting the mandate it should be sufficient, as I believe the other items included are covered under HIPAA already.
