Biden’s COVID-19 Vaccine Mandates ‘Modern-Day Segregation,’ Says Rep. Cawthorn
District of Columbia, North Carolina | September 22, 2021
Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-N.C.) on Tuesday likened President Joe Biden’s recently announced COVID-19 vaccine mandates to “modern-day segregation,” saying that they should be “rescinded” as they infringe upon the personal liberties of Americans.
During an appearance on Newsmax, the Republican lawmaker was pressed by host Chris Salcedo about a viral video that showed a scuffle between a hostess at a New York City restaurant and three tourists, who are black, over a vaccine requirement.
Individuals dining indoors in the city are required to be vaccinated against COVID-19, the disease caused by the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus…. (Excerpts from the Epoch Times)

As Vaccine Mandates Become a Reality, a North Carolina Senator Attempts to Limit Overreach
North Carolina | August 13, 2021
As local school boards across the country vote on mask mandates for students, a bill that would require children to get parental consent before getting the vaccine has been brought before North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper.
Republican state Sen. Joyce Krawiec, who sponsored House Bill 96, told The Epoch Times that she will also be revisiting another bill that could put a 30-day expiration date on school mask mandates.

Of course, but if you still wear a mask after you’ve been fully vaccinated, that really should be your only reason for doing so.
It’s frustrating, then, that Thursday night’s most recent live update from the New York Times’ reporting on the CDC’s announcement would be that “C.D.C. Guidance Prompts Caution in Some States.” From the NYT reporting, with added emphasis:
On Thursday, the governors of Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey, North Carolina, and Virginia, and the mayors of New York City and Washington, D.C., all Democrats, said they were taking the new guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention under advisement before adopting it. In deference to local authorities, the C.D.C. said vaccinated people must continue to abide by existing state, local, or tribal laws and regulations, and follow local rules for businesses and workplaces…
