Braun & Company claim they are not “anti vaccine” but their push to outlaw mandates that require either vaccinations OR weekly testing have the effect of undermining efforts to protect citizens from hospitalizations or death. In other words, they might as well be anti vaccine because the outcome is the same. On the bright side, Hoosiers can be thankful that Sen. Marshall of Kansas isn’t our senator, because as a physician he should damn well know better. Actually, they all should know better, but politics = not science – is driving their agenda.
It is truly obvious that this division of the Congress cannot read the news media and statistics of deaths and near deaths from this disease. They must want to reduce our population. So far all of the PR campaigns have failed to reduce the unvaccianted, who populate our hospitals. The only solution is for mandates otherwise we just cannot overcome stupidity, and lack of concern for fellow man.
The Republicans need to read and start thinking before taking down what is helping us get throught this pandemic.
Braun voted against the Infrastructure bill and against vaccine and testing mandates.
Tells us everything we need to know about Braun. He doesn’t care about Americans and how many people die.
Vote this loser out.
And then Braun will turn around and take credit for infrastructure projects in Indiana, and blame Biden for Covid deaths. Just watch.
Keep him. He’s more interested in your freedoms and financial well-being than either of you are, Mark B. and/or Brent B.
Bob P. – What good are “freedoms and financial well-being” if you and your customers are dead from Covid? Braun is playing to the Trump base (which are mostly unvaccinated, getting infected, going to the hospital, and dying). Duh.
I, for one, am looking forward to freedom from the pandemic, and ending the pandemic will be positive for financial well-being, too. Braun’s hard work on behalf of prolonging the pandemic is foolish, shortsighted and immoral. Why is the Republican Party so eager to help COVID spread?
Bob P
My freedoms are being taken away because of the people that won’t get vaccinated, wear masks or socially distancing.
Women abortion rights are being taken away because Braun is anti abortion.
Our infrastructure is crumbling yet loser Braun voted against it.
There is no personal freedom without the common good.
Republicans want COVID to persist so that voters will blame Joe Biden and Democrats and give them Congress in 2022.
But, I’m becoming slightly more optimistic that this winter will be the end of COVID. More contagious variants mean that the virus will run out of people to infect. All the Republicans who wanted to just open up society and die our way through the pandemic are going to get their wish.
For those who took COVID seriously, got vaccinated and boosted and get a breakthrough case… the vast, vast majority of cases will be mild.
For those who buy the nonsense in Republican media, who refuse vaccinations and turn to crank cures instead of real treatments? Well, I hope you get through it with no lasting effects so you can “own the libs” with your votes in 2022 … because dead people can’t vote.
Braun makes Indiana look like what people think Indiana looks like.
Plus +1
To some extent Braun’s move surely reflects a coldly cynical political calculation. Voters tend to blame whichever party holds the White House for anything bad that happens on its watch, which creates an incentive for a sufficiently ruthless party to engage in outright sabotage.
Trying to block the one thing that will get us back to normal is nothing short of outright sabotage. If this were a war, this would be treason.
While I am pro vaccine for myself, people do have rights. I don’t believe the vaccine should be mandated by my employer or government. I do, however, believe anyone who chooses not to be vaccinated should be required to wear a mask at work and get tested at least weekly. Just because someone is pro-vaccine doesn’t mean it is right for everyone.
JM, that’s what Republicans are fighting for.
Not only should the government be unable to mandate vaccinations, businesses should be unable to require their workforce to be vaccinated (even hospitals), but mask mandates should be illegal and all testing costs should be born by anyone EXCEPT the person who chooses to be unvaccinated.
That unvaccinated person should have no restrictions, because freedom means you get to do what you want. Reminds me of how an entitled teenager behaves…
What if I live in Marion County and decide that burning leaves in the fall is right for me, even if it decreases our air quality and exacerbates severe asthma for the kids next door? I think they smell great when they burn, and my breathing is just fine. Why should governments be able to ban leaf burning? What right do they have to curtail my God-given freedom to burn leaves?
Why are seats belts required? Why can’t you drink and drive? Text and drive? Drive as fast as you want? Smoke in public places. Why are 10+ vaccines required for kids to attend schools.
Why can’t you have an abortion at any time?
