Fauci: If you want to get on a plane and travel, you should be vaccinated

Dr. Anthony Fauci is upping the vaccination mandate game in America, this time saying he fully supports vaccination mandates for anyone who wants to fly on a plane.

“I would support that if you want to get on a plane and travel with other people that you should be vaccinated,” Fauci said.

In that same interview, Fauci likened the COVID-19 vaccination to others that treated polio, measles and mumps. He said those vaccinations are required by schools and so should the COVID-19 vaccine. He did not mention that flu shots are not mandated by schools.

“When you hear us say should you mandate vaccination for children to be able to attend school, some people say, ‘Oh, my goodness. That would be terrible to do that.’ But we already do that and have been doing that for decades and decades,” Fauci added. “I don’t know what school you went to, but the school that I went to, you had to be vaccinated for measles, mumps, rubella, polio, or otherwise you couldn’t go to school.”
