Says "individual rights" are getting too much emphasis.

So yeah, rather than treat them like human beings, give them the best info available, and then give them a choice, let’s treat them like they have no right to informed consent. That’ll be a big plus for race relations…

Just interesting that a major media outlet would even go there... simply by publishing this guy's opinion they're advocating that it's at least worthy of consideration.
I'm just a random guy... they certainly wouldn't publish anything I have to say. Who they publish is a message in it's own right... "opinion piece" just gives them some arms length deniability.
And I'm a proponent of the vaccines.

Zelizer is a professor of history and public affairs. He isn't a doctor, scientist, epidemiologist, infectious disease expert, or elected policymaker. His red herring and non sequitur-filled opinion piece is no more valid than any other random person on the internet. I can't find a single foxtrot to give about his opinion.
SARS-CoV-2 may not be "just the flu"...but it also ain't smallpox.

Not surprising that this opinion is coming from CNN. I’m not sure about the constitutionality of “mandating” a vaccine, especially for a virus that has such a low mortality rate. We know exactly who are vulnerable to SARS-Cov-2 at this point, which are the very old and very sick/frail. Young and/or healthy people are at extremely low risk to this virus, and with the current treatment protocols available, it essentially reduces that risk to zero. As far as “Vaccine Passports”, I find that disturbing at best. A governmental agency determining when/where you can go?? What could possibly go wrong?? 🤦🏼♂️
