The Federal Government and Big Pharma are also to Blame for Vaccine-Reluctance

The “ do as I say and not as I do” policy no longer fools the public

As the fourth Covid-19 (Delta variant) wave grips the country, the Federal government daily urges everyone to get vaccinated. How then do you explain that there is no policy mandating employees of the White House staff, the CDC, and the FDA to be vaccinated? In one word: hypocrisy. I am sorry, but you can’t complain about not enough citizens getting vaccinated when you won’t enforce it in your department. Joe Biden can issue an executive order like he has 55 times since January. Easy peasy.

And there is also Pfizer, Moderna, and JNJ, makers of the three authorized vaccines in the US. There is no company mandate for vaccines. And they produce them! How is that for a ringing non-endorsement? I am not an anti-vaccine person. I had my two shots earlier this year. However, I do believe in freedom of choice when it comes to your health. But if the White House and various Federal government agencies want to preach to us what we should be doing, how about they do it as well? Is that too much to ask?

At first, I thought these facts weren’t accurate. But even the left-leaning “truth-detector” site, Snopes, verified it. I am suspicious of the government and all of its diktats, but even this one caught me…
