The Governor of Massachusetts Charlie Baker has ordered that it is mandatory for all students under 30 to get flu shots in order to attend school. Following the order massive protests were organised outside the State House Sunday morning demanding that Governor Charlie Baker rescind the public health mandate.

Earlier this month, Baker announced what is believed to be a first-in-the-nation order requiring the vaccination for anyone 6 months or older who is in a school or day care center, with some exemptions.
“I would hope people would understand this is an important part of how we continue to fight the [corona]virus here in Massachusetts,” Baker told reporters at a State House news briefing on Aug. 20. “The more people who get the flu shot don’t get the flu and don’t wind up in the ER.”
In front of the State House steps, a series of speakers said they did not want to abide by the flu shot mandate because of distrust in the government and in pharmaceutical companies and concern that they would not have control over their medical decisions.
“This is about using the fear of COVID to take away a person’s ability, and their human right, to make decisions for themselves and their children — unnecessarily,“ said Allison Chapman, a member of the executive leadership team at an organization called Health Choice.
In a statement Sunday, a state Department of Public Health spokeswoman said the commonwealth has an obligation to advance policies that protect students, teachers, and staff, particularly during a flu season that overlaps with the COVID-19 pandemic.
“As students return to in-person learning in the classroom, this vaccine requirement provides an additional and necessary layer of protection and safety,” the statement said.
Protesters also complained that the vaccine companies have been exempt from any liabilities.

Probably governor needs little bit more understanding of the correlation between flu shots and risk of coronavirus risk.

It is interesting that this link is now hidden in the fake-news toole searches. Only duckduckgo search engine showed this link. Never trust any of the marxist promoted fake “leftist fact checkers” like the racist “snopes.com” , they are not to be trusted. Unless drug companies become legally responsible for their poison, do not let them inject you. Always ask to see the warning labels.
