Joe Biden wasn’t kidding. When his spokeswoman Jen Psaki said the Biden administration would send people door-to-door to convince people to get the COVID shot, there was a chill sent down the spines of freedom-loving Americans everywhere. Many people took it as a threat.
But now those door-to-door COVID-shot salespeople are here and they’ve brought back-up: injectors.
Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Xavier Becerra says, “We’ll go to you. If you want to get vaccinated, we’ll go to you.”
And so they are.
In North Carolina, health officials are using a far-Left community organizing group to go to COVID-shot-hesitant areas to “educate and encourage” people to get a shot. If someone indicates they’ll get a COVID shot, the organizers, who usually register people to vote for Democrats, call an accompanying health department injector to administer the shot on the spot.
The medical director for the Mecklenburg County Health Department, Dr. Meg Sullivan, says that the percentage of people with COVID shots “just isn’t as high as it needs to be. We need these innovative ways.” --->READ MORE HERE

In the week after the U.S. failed to reach President Biden’s July 4 vaccination goal, the conversation of what to do next has yielded increasingly preposterous suggestions. Slowing vaccine rates have many officials worried that the optimal immunity levels of 85 to 90 percent may not be reached any time soon. But in the flurry of proposals, there is one option of which the American people should be exceptionally wary: a federal vaccine mandate.
Biden set himself a lofty goal when, at the beginning of May, he vowed to get at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine to 70 percent of adults. Even though the nation fell short of that over the holiday weekend, an impressive number of Americans have still made the choice to get vaccinated. The most recent CDC reports suggest that 67 percent of adults have been inoculated at least once, and almost 50 percent are fully vaccinated. But the surge of the Delta variant and increasing case numbers in recent weeks have many officials and media outlets calling for more drastic measures. Mobile vaccine clinics in workplaces, door-knocking campaigns, and stronger education efforts have all been floated. However, the discussion of vaccine mandates is taking federal intervention much too far. --->READ MORE HEREFollow links below to related stories and resources:
