It’s about time Republicans In Name Only (RINOs) are ousted out of the Grand Old Party. If there was ever a time to pay attention to how elected officials vote on bills to be passed into law – it would be now.
80 House Republicans have voted to help fund a covid vaccine database, to keep track of those who have been vaxxed and more importantly, who have not.
The Immunization Infrastructure Modernization Act of 2021, will allow the federal government all the information they want on a person’s vaccination status. There are more mandates coming and the database will help this.
Having such a database will make targeting and stripping Americans of their rights and income a cake walk.
The fact that 80 Republicans voted to have this a law, shows that they do not care about those who vote for them or what those voters want. This happens far too often, politicians are disregarding their duty to their constituents.
Also known as H.R. 550, $400 million in taxpayer dollars will be used against the very people who are funding it, the database is being described as: “A confidential, population-based, computerized database that records immunization doses administered by any health care provider to persons within the geographic area covered by that database.”
The details in the bill expands the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Public Health Department capabilities and gives state and local health departments and public and private Healthcare providers the ability to share data about a person’s health with the federal government.
Democrat Rep. Ann Kuster (NH), who is the main sponsor of the bill, said in a statement that the database would be used to “remind patients when they are due for a recommended vaccine.”
Areas of low vaccination rates will also be identified to “ensure equitable distribution of vaccines.” Not one Democrat voted in opposition, but that’s not surprising at all. What is concerning, are the four Republican co-sponsors: Reps. Larry Bucshon (R-IN), James Baird (R-IN), David McKinley (R-WV) and Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA).
Rep. Kuster laid out what the system will be using the funding for. According to her website, the bill will do the following:
- Conduct an assessment of current capabilities and gaps among immunization providers;
- Expand enrollment and training of immunization providers;
- Support real-time immunization record data exchange and reporting;
- Improve secure data collection, transmission, bidirectional exchange, maintenance, and analysis of immunization information;
- Enhance the security of bidirectional exchange of immunization record data and interoperability of immunization information systems with health information technology platforms; and
- Enhance data exchange interoperability with other jurisdictions.
On the Act itself, it states:
“To amend the Public Health Service Act with respect to immunization system data modernization and expansion, and for other purposes.”
“For other purposes”…what other purposes? It’s alarming to think that the very people who make and pass laws are really going to help enable your whole life to be ruined.
It’s time to clean the House and 2022, which brings the midterm elections, will be the time to do it.
