Republican doctors and health pros in Congress promoted the COVID-19 vaccines Tuesday as safe and effective tools to wind down the pandemic and “end the government’s restrictions on our freedoms.” The public-service announcement from Sens. Roger Marshall of Kansas, John Barrasso of Wyoming, John Boozman of Arkansas and seven House Republicans does not mention former President Donald Trump by name but highlights his efforts to shepherd multiple vaccines to approval in under a year.(Snip) The Biden White House has acknowledged that it might not be the best messenger in getting Trump supporters vaccinated. Instead, it has tried to enlist trusted groups

Just take the vaccine. We promise everything will be great after you take the experimental vaccine and our friends across the aisle will decide to give you back your freedom. Right after you take it. Promise.

Recent studies show that innoculations are lagging in the Black community and with young adults 18 to 34. So we have PSA targeted at conservative, Republicans. Would love to see how these production contracts were administered. You know it went contract. With a government as small as ours, there is no way we could have done that in-house, right.

Tell you what...we'll take it right after all the Democrats have taken it. You know, just in case it's the great delayed sterilization project they've always dreamed of for conservatives.

Lots of “docs” and health care pros who are not in congress disagree with this advice, and predict an upcoming calamity. The insane artificial limits on freedom could be ended immediately without having a “shot” of this pretend vaccine.

"End limits on freedom!" that sure says a lot. So the vaccine is all about control. Whats in the vaccine. Is there a way that we will be followed and spied upon because of the vaccine? After reading that line, I am more skeptical about taking the vaccine.

Boozeman is an optometrist, by the way. He hasn't practiced in years and I will wager he knows nothing about the human immune response and even less about the mechanisms of the vaccines.

So now they are saying the ones who have had the jab can breathe on those of us who choose not to and give us the crud. Say what! Does anyone know what is going on, what will happen, how many jabs you will finally need to be safe and a gazillion other questions. They are evidently getting antsy because not everyone is bending over for them. I agree with poster - I will think about it when all the democraps have had it and I see if they are still living and healthy.

Remember how we were promised that vaccinations would let us get back to normal? Yes, except we all have to still wear masks, socially distance, and possibly get boosters after six months. Yeah, that's freedom for sure.......not.

No, thanks.
I don't trust the people who made it and who are selling it, and who are pushing it to have my best interests at heart. I worry that they have something else in mind.

Just another reason I happily left the useless and impotent Republi-Can't Party last November after being a proud Republican for over 60 years.
If you sell your soul to the devil for riches and fame, you may have riches and fame, but the devil still has your soul. The Republi-Can't Party long ago sold their souls. And, sadly, other than in a few moral issues, they are no better than the Demon-Rat Party now!!!

"Just put up with this a few weeks and then we can all go back to normal." Geez, where have I heard that before, like for the past 13 months.

This is what we get from the Republican Party. Endorsement of what the Democrat Party said.

That's our GOP, staunch defenders of the republic.
