"Health Mandates History 101" is now in session.
You’ll recall our last class discussed the quickening amble towards sticks instead of carrots as goads to COVID-19 vaccination. In my state of Massachusetts, Gov. Charlie Baker has made shots a condition of employment at long-term care facilities, the strategy embraced by major hospitals in the commonwealth. Ditto for higher education nationally (including my employer, Boston University) and for swelling numbers of the Fortune 500, from Disney to Google to Walmart. President Biden ordered federal workers to vaccinate or else mask-and-test. New York City will require proof of vaccination for entry into public recreation — restaurants, theaters, gyms.
Today’s lecture focuses on the thinking behind any objection to these wholly reasonable measures.

There won't be any once each individual vaccine is independently licensed. Those who are waiting for its approval will get it at that time and rest simply won't want it.
