I don't understand why everyone is so passionate about mandating vaccines.
God I always hate this argument.

1 . It's not 8000 to 10000 people who die from the flu. It's 2000- 8000 but that's a wide guess as they don't track the numbers that closely. Example. 2002 to 2008 there was only 300 flu deaths.

2. Covid 19 was closer to 20,000 deaths in 2020. Effectively doubling the death rate of the flu + pneumonia.

3. When someone's argument is It's just the flu! Then fine . Then think of it as the flu and that it's now it's death rate and severe sickness as grown 100% . Anytime any disease rate doubles with more severe effects that's a concern .

Vaccines are they way fore ward to controlling it.

Do you know why lead isn't used in gasoline anymore? They found it was damaging people's heath and mental facilities from the burning of it into the air so governments banned it for the health and safety of everyone. Asking people to be vaccinated is no different I reality.
