Florida Republican Governor Ron Desantis appeared on Fox News in an interview with host Maria Bartiromo on Sunday to discuss Democrat’s tyrannical push for vaccine mandates where he was asked if he took the “booster” shot.
“So, I’ve done whatever — I did the normal shot, and you know, that, at the end of the day, is people’s individual decisions about what they want to do. But these boosters, in terms of — now Florida, we don’t, we banned vaccine passports; we won’t let them fire [you], even private businesses, over this because we don’t think that’s appropriate.” He said
“But one of the reasons why we took those steps is because we knew the definition of vaccination would be a shifting target. And I predicted this a month and a half ago, and people said that I was wrong, and now we’re starting to see it come to fruition.” He added.
“So, there’s gonna be people who’ve done maybe two Pfizer shots who are not doing [the] booster, and they could be considered in certain parts of the country to be unvaccinated, and then denied the ability to participate in society like everybody else,” he continued.
“It’s gone way, way too far, and that is a decision that people should make for themselves, but they should not have their rights, freedoms, or liberties restricted based on these boosters,” he concluded.
Earlier this month, the Governor also announced that he won’t shut down the sunshine state amid the emergence of the “omicron variant” several Democrat-led states like New York have announced some form of tyrannical mandates.
“In Florida, we won’t let them lock ya down, we won’t let them restrict you, we’re not gonna let them impose mandates, we’re not gonna let them close the schools,” Desantis remarked in a speech earlier this month.
“We are gonna protect your freedom to make your decisions,” he added, noting further if Sunshine State residents feel that they should self-quarantine, then “that is absolutely their decision in a free society.” He added.
“You don’t impose Fauci-ism on the whole country or on a whole state. It’s wrong” he continued.
Early last month, the state of Florida reported the lowest daily average cases in the country. With just six per hundred thousand making it a two percent decrease over the last couple of weeks.
Meanwhile, the state of New York had one of the highest rates with a daily average of 6,666 making it 34 per 100,000. New York has some of the strictest restrictions and mandates in the country.
Governor DeSantis’ leadership and his values speak for themselves. In his words, “It’s a free country, so when people are in bad environments – when you have states that don’t know how to fight crime, when you have states that are locking people down, mandating them, doing a lot of stupid things – people look for greener pastures,”
