re: Under what circumstances would you fully support a Covid-19 vaccine mandate?

If it's done by legislative action by state instead of executive fiat.

There isn’t a circumstance at all that I would support the government mandating people to take it at all. Companies mandating it is a different story, I’m fine with them setting their own rules, that’s assuming there is zero from the government coercing them to do so.
I think it’s idiotic the way people have politicized it, and after the election it’s turned from Trump's warp speed miracle vaccine to Biden's poison jab and now people are not only refusing to get the shot, but losing their jobs when they have a wife and kids that rely on that paycheck but hey that’s their decision.
But I don’t agree with the government mandating it or anything else medical someone may do.

No they are not. They don't control the spread, but instead increase it.

The good thing is data shows that MRNA COVID-19 vaccines do lessen the chance of hospitalization and death
True if you survive the shot they do but only for a few months then you have to risk your life again to get a booster. How long does the booster last? Another few months? Does your immune system stay in a weakened state to things other than covid-19 after the mRNA shot or booster wear off or is that permanent?

Yep. If COVID was putting 1 out of every 10 people in the grave, people would be lining up to get the shots and doing all of the preventive measures necessary to limit the spread.

There should never be a mandate to force citizens to inject anything into their body.
Right wing libertarians like myself were yelling from the rooftops, once you let government get into the healthcare business you aren’t going to like the results. Laws like Obamacare put politicians and healthcare providers too close, now we are reaping the results of those close relationships. The reason for the mandates is money, since we created an incentive for the medical industry to be large political contributors to politicians. This was predictable.

I think the same people have been against it from its inception. Trump is on record stating that he believes in the vaccine and is all for everyone who so chooses to get the vaxx. So it really isn't about Trump or Biden, because both have "endorsed" it. But the people are standing their ground for reasons personal to them, that's all it boils down to. Again, not Trump vs Biden.

If the business or gov agency will be fiscally responsible to their employees in the small chance that some of those employees have adverse reactions to the vaccine.
But then again.. if motherfrickers had to be responsible for adverse vaccine reactions, there wouldn't be any mandates to begin with.

Under no circumstances whatsoever will I ever support a Covid-19 vaccine mandate, or any mandate for that matter that jambs a foreign substance into a human’s body by force.
You’re either free or you’re not man, and when a government forces you to put a vaccine in your body, that very act is proof positive that you are NOT free any longer.

If the vax actually worked there would be no need for a mandate.

If it got to the point where the virus got deadly enough for local authorities send a meat wagon around once a day with loudspeakers blaring “bring out your dead!” then I would support it.

I would never support a mandate under any circumstance. People have the right to decide what is injected into their body. End of story.

None whatsoever. Im having a tough time considering our current gummit as legitimate.

If Covid-19 was truly dangerous enough to require a vaccine mandate, then the border should be locked down and "undocumented immigrants" should be first on the list for vaccinations.
The same would be true of the BLM riots that ensued last year. If our government was so concerned with public health and safety, more would be done about public vagrancy and indigents flooding cities.
This kind of hypocrisy is precisely why I am against such mandates on responsible hard working people. The government is applying an agenda on law abiding people to bring them to heel, yet letting law breakers off scott free.
Something is rotten in the state of our nation.
All of this.

Correct. Smallpox, one of the biggest killers of humans throughout our history, was completely eradicated through vaccinating almost every human being on the planet. No one has to hold a gun to people's heads or anything else... people KNEW how horrible smallpox was, and the vaccine 100% eliminated your chance of ever getting it.
Hell, I would have volunteered to be in the test group to get a smallpox vaccine.
This COVID crap, though, is just that, all a bunch of bullshite.
