The vaccines are an experimental medical procedure. Mandating any experimental medical procedures (especially when all malpractice liabilities have been removed) is a violation of basic human rights. It puts us on a dangerous slippery slope toward having a more cruel, inhumane, totalitarian government. The opposite of Aloha. Something I hope none of us want. Also, if there are long term side effects of the experimental Vaccines.... (making it difficult for people to work)for public safety it's good to have some people not take the experimental procedure so they will be able to work and help those who may suffer from side effects. A small minority of the population will never consent to the Vaccine (due to religious reasons or a healthy distrust of the medical/pharmaceutical industry). To deny these people a livelihood due to their beliefs is cruel and unusual punishment..... punishment for a crime they did not commit. This is also a violation of Aloha. The USA medical establishment has had many great achievements ....for which we are all thankful. However, the USA also has a long history of medical malpractice, such as George Washington being bled to death with leeches by the top doctors of his time, mercury pills being one of the top prescription drugs of the 1920s, hydrolyzed oils being promoted instead of butter in the 1980s. Hydrolyzed oils are now illegal to put in food because they are so bad, but these were encouraged by doctors in the 1980s. I feel we need more strict regulations of our healthcare industry as well as anti monopoly laws and anti price gouging laws for necessary life saving medications. Also, with any new medical procedure it is good to have a control group that does not receive the experimental medication,just in case there are long term health consequences or sudden deaths from the experimental procedure. Sweden has one of the highest vaccine rates of any country(over 90%)... but they never force people to receive a medical procedure. It is always voluntary. Forcing people to take a medical procedure against their will is a violation of basic human rights. It must be voluntary. To mandate experimental treatments for a disease with a relatively low mortality rate is insane.Any Mandated Medical Procedure is dangerous. It puts us on a slippery slope toward having a cruel inhumane totalitarian government. Something I hope none of us want. Comm. No. Ref. To: s Ref, Date 2021
