Ron Johnson Against Vaccine Mandate, Unless Disease Is 'Incredibly Deadly'
Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) has said he is not in favor of vaccine mandates, though suggested an "incredibly deadly disease" could change his mind.
Johnson was speaking to Fox News' Brian Kilmeade, who was guest hosting Laura Ingraham's The Ingraham Angle on Friday, when he was asked about the possibility of requiring COVID vaccines.
There have been than 610,000 COVID-related deaths in the U.S. over the course of the pandemic, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), while there have been more than 34 million infections.
Johnson replied: "No, not unless there's some incredibly deadly disease. I mean, much higher infection-fatality rates than we have with COVID.
"We don't know the final infection-fatality rate but right now it's looking like it's not going to be much more than double a bad season of flu."

How many is enough for the death cult? I imagine that even if the world had a virus like I am legend running rampant they would sit behind their high walls and say the death toll is still not high enough...
