U.S. University Requiring Both Flu and COVID-19 Vaccines for Students to Enter Campus

Those who don’t believe that mandatory vaccines couldn’t happen in America should really pay attention now.


Many U.S. health officials and pharmaceutical operatives are claiming that the only way for society to “return to normal” is for every person to receive a vaccination, otherwise it will take ‘far longer’ for humans to reach collective immunity against COVID-19. While this top-down narrative does not reflect reality, few in the media or politics seem brave enough to challenge it. Already, some leading legal bodies are advocating for mandatory COVID vaccines, despite the fact that over 99% of the population are not at any real risk of complications from the virus.


“Some Americans may push back on the COVID-19 vaccination for religious, philosophical or personal reasons,” says the report released on Thursday by the NYSBA, but, it says, “for the sake of public health, mandatory vaccinations for COVID-19 should be required in the United States as soon as it is available.”


In terms of universities and schools, it’s likely that such a mandate will not be restricted to just students and faculty either – it will also include all staff, and even visitors to a campus. The danger here is that if educational institutions are so brazen as to implement this level of medical martial law, then for purely economic reasons other partnering institutions and businesses within their orbit may be forced to align with this policy too. This process of normalization of supposed public health ‘governance’ can then be very easily scaled up to a city, state, national, or international level.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) – University of Tennessee students will have to get their flu shot this fall and also be immunized for COVID-19 if a vaccine becomes available under an emergency rule unanimously approved Friday by the university’s Board of Trustees.


The university went to online classes because of the coronavirus pandemic on March 16, which was extended April 1 through the summer. The University of Tennessee system plans to have students on campuses for the fall semester with this new rule – part of the practices designed to keep everyone healthy as possible.


University of Tennessee President Randy Boyd said this is an emergency rule for now. When the state legislature returns, university officials will be asking to make this rule permanent.Boyd said he expected some pushback.


“But we think this is in the best interest of our students so we’re going to insist on it,” Boyd said.


Immunizations will be required for all students, faculty and staff. Boyd said students should get any vaccines available before arriving on campuses. A vaccine for the seasonal flu may not be available until October, and Boyd said students should get them once available.
