COVID-19 authoritarianism is skyrocketing around the world as the corporate media drums up panic about the Omicron variant of the virus.
In Greece, individuals 60 years old and over will be required to get the COVID-19 jab by Jan. 16, 2022, or risk a 100 euro fine.
“We are focusing our efforts on protection of our fellow citizens and for this reason their vaccination will be mandatory from now on,” Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said last week in a cabinet meeting.
The mandate comes shortly after the nation banned anyone who did not receive the shot from public “indoor spaces” regardless of whether they test negative.
In other areas of Europe such as Northern Ireland, members of the Alliance party called for political censorship against groups advocating against vaccine passports. Councilor Danny Donnelly and Member of the Legislative Assembly Stewart Dickson complained that the organization Big Brother Watch and other groups protesting a looming legislative vote on vaccine passes are “putting lives at risk,” and demanded the digital advertisements featuring the group’s message be turned off “ASAP.”
In Canada, any travelers older than 12 years old must show proof of full vaccination to take any form of public transportation including domestic and international flights as well as trains. --->READ MORE HERE
Sen. Rand Paul, a Kentucky Republican, told conservative radio and television host Dan Bongino that restrictions intended to prevent the spread of COVID-19 are really about "conditioning" people to "submit to government."
Paul discussed Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer's charge that Republicans who voted against Joe Biden's vaccine mandate on private employers are "anti-science" and "anti-vaccine."
Schumer compared those against the mandate with flat-earthers during his remarks on the Senate floor.
"We cannot go back to the days when people were driven by wild theories," Schumer said. "Some of the anti-vaxxers here in this chamber remind me of what happened 400 years ago, when people were clinging to the fact that the sun revolved around the Earth. They just didn't believe science. Or 500 years ago, when they were sure the Earth was flat." --->READ MORE HEREFollow links below to related stories and resources:
