Youngkin hedges when asked if measles vaccines should be mandatory
By Josh Israel -September 29, 2021 4:36 PM
The GOP gubernatorial nominee said Tuesday that some vaccines 'can be mandatory' with the exception of the COVID-19 vaccine.
Republican candidate Glenn Youngkin was asked in Tuesday's Virginia gubernatorial debate whether his opposition to vaccine mandates extends beyond COVID-19. He struggled to answer the question directly.
Throughout his campaign for governor, Youngkin has tried to appeal both to anti-vaccine conservatives (by railing against mask mandates and other COVID safety measures) and to Virginia's pro-vaccine majority (by encouraging people to choose to get immunized).
At Tuesday night's debate, moderator Chuck Todd asked Youngkin whether he also opposes government mandates for long-standing and historically effective vaccines.

I guess the youngkin didn't get the memo that measles are a highly and deadly virus....when he was kid...and that his parents wanted him to be protected....from other kids that might have had it....and to think his parents had some principles and and he now has this BS hedging ...fuck him and that horse....
