Gov. Gretchen Whitmer outlined a plan that ties specific vaccination levels to rolling back COVID-19 restrictions during a news media event Thursday morning.The announcement mirrors the state's goal of vaccinating 70% of all Michigander's 16 and older, but comes as Michigan continues to grapple with the nation's worst pandemic outbreak. “On our path to vaccinating 70% of Michiganders 16 and up, we can take steps to gradually get back to normal while keeping people safe," Whitmer said in a statement.

Gretchen Whitmer is what happens when you give a power hungry politician free reign (or rein).

The Michigan Supreme Court ruled that her unilateral executive orders were illegal, so she transferred all the orders to the State Health Department. The head of the Health Department resigned (IMHO - because he realized this was probably also illegal), so Whitmer appointed another lackey to do Whitmer's bidding.

The more intense their efforts get to "help us" - the more frightened you should be of what their "vaccine" actually does....especially in a year or two.

What a brilliant way to bring about unity. Let's set the percentage of the population that decided to get the experimental shot against those who don't trust the government any time for any reason. This witch needs to run for president.

What happens when it becomes obvious that ''under-served communities'' are quite resistant to getting the vaccine?

Remember:
Covid vaccines are not approved by the FDA.
Covid vaccines have an "emergency use authorization" (EUA).
That means the covid vaccines are medical experiments.
Masks and covid tests are also medical experiments.
No one can force you or your child to participate in a medical experiment.
You have the right to refuse consent.
Medical and religious exemptions to covid vaccines, masks and tests must be accommodated by law.

So the most stupidly and arrogantly repressive governor ends up with the worst outbreak. Gee, who could have seen that coming? Too bad that ordinary citizens are paying for Whitmer's megalomania and freezer-level IQ.

They really, really want people to being taking this shot. Too much. There couldn’t possibly be anything nefarious about it.
No. Not at all.
No shot. Ever!

Witchmer came up with this brilliant idea - - in-between daiquiris on a Florida beach.

Obvious play to shift people's anger from her admin's wretched response to vaccine "resisters"...and it will probably work.

I'll be very surprised if ANY state hits 70%. There is increasing resistance already and hardly any states have hit 50% yet. Enjoy your imprisonment, Michigan.

Does she understand that these vaccines are approved under EAA? Public sector and especially government cannot force people to get vaccinated

According to Whitmer's latest dictatorial pronouncement, Michigan will never fully reopen because we will most likely never reach a 70% vaccine rate. Of course, we could always hope she loses reelection in 2022 and the new governor reopens everything.

So, if their goal is 70% vaccinated.
Current world population is 7.5 billion x 70% = 5.25 billion to erase. Leaves a world population of 2.25 billion, unless they get 90% compliance in the 3rd world.

So much misinformation by posters on these boards. Are you anti-vaxxers as concerned about the long term side effects of actually getting covid as you are about getting the vaccine. Do some research on that.

Why is she still referred to by the honoraria "governor." She's no governor. She's a dictator. She loves the power. She hates the people over which she lords her will.

FTA: Michigan's numbers remain worst in the nation with a seven-day average of 314 cases per 100,000 people — about three times higher than the national average per-capita seven-day average of 113.7 cases, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
REally. Why should we listen to this woman?

BTW.... IF ;you want people to get the shot, you don't have to give them prepaid debit cards. Give them a badge that entitles them (I know... this is NOT a RIGHT we get from the State) to shop, eat, recreate without a mask. Simple. Got the badge. Dump the mask. (after all....'Science is Real')
Oh, and advertise this for what it is... the Trump Vaccine.
I guarantee the vax rates will climb.

#23, I don't trust that the "vaccine" isn't designed to be some sort of a 'cleansing' in several years, perhaps when a second phase 'infection' or new 'vaccination' is provided.
I am no antivaxxer. I have taken dozens of vaccinations over the years. And I have managed scientific development projects which developed animal vaccines in foreign countries, and other biotech development projects involved with antibodies, disease vectors, etc. I am not a bioscientist but I managed a bunch of them for years, and asked a lot of questions and understood the answers. I have a pretty good working knowledge of how a vaccine is made, how they work, how antibodies work, etc.
And this mRNA is fundamentally technologically different than ANY OTHER 'vaccine' ever used on humans. And all previous research attempts to use this mRNA approach on lab animals ended with all the lab animals dead when challenged by disease vectors later.
No thank you. In Germany and in Russia, millions were intentionally eliminated because they were politically inconvenient for leftists. Look at Cambodia, a million killed by communists in the 70s. Tell me that it cannot ever happen again. If you believe that you are pretty much a pollyanna.
