Florida GOP law passed that will forcibly vaccinate people.
DeSantis is not who he seems to be. His biggest donors are corporations, and so that’s where his loyalties lie. He will not be loyal to the people. Many people will find this hard to believe.
Florida bill SB2006 passed on May 24, 2021, disallows vaccine passports but also allows the police to forcibly vaccinate a person if quarantine cannot be done. See line 1107 here https://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2021/2006/BillText/er/HTML
"1107 If the individual poses a danger to the public health, 1108 the State Health Officer may subject the individual to isolation 1109 or quarantine. If there is no practical method to isolate or 1110 quarantine the individual, the State Health Officer may use any 1111 means necessary to vaccinate or treat the individual."
The numbers above are the line numbers of the bill in the link. The bill also has a PDF you can download and save offline to share.
This is appalling! Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I am stunned.
Hey Dave,
amazing finding this down in the bottom of the barrel of that bill!
I sent DeSantis a letter just NOW!

Hello Governor Desantis,
I do not live in Florida, however, I am concerned for you and your citizens, for their liberty; having signed this bill into law it is hard to understand your 20% election edge. Do the citizens of Florida know about this?
From Florida bill SB2006 passed on May 24, 2021,
“ 1109 diseases that have significant morbidity or mortality and
1100 present a severe danger to public health.” and. . .
"1107 If the individual poses a danger to the public health,
1108 the State Health Officer may subject the individual to isolation
1109 or quarantine. If there is no practical method to isolate or
1110 quarantine the individual, the State Health Officer may use any
1111 means necessary to vaccinate or treat the individual.”
I see nothing in the bill’s context forcing the proof by the state that the communicable disease being prevented is deadly and to what extent. Often this can NOT be determined immediately or even 6 months into an epidemic. It makes no sense at all to put this much power into the State Health Officer(ONE person) with no oversight and with no requirement or specification for PROVING the morbidity level and no baseline morbidity level specified in the law. THIS is wrong; it provides unlawful power over individuals’ liberties.
My suggestion:
Please offer your legislature the opportunity to revise the bill to provide oversight, better definition of morbidity, and prevent concentration of power like this.
