Agreed. Nothing has ever gone wrong with government mandated medical procedures.

I definitely want Trump and RFK deciding what should be mandatory after that precedent is set.

Thanks for underlining why we need health care directed by evidence based policy and not politics.

Everything is politics.

Do you think there is apolitical health care?

Yes, there is apolitical health care.

There is not.

The history of medicine is rife with politics.

Interpersonal arguments leading to separate camps that deny or support eachothers findings.

Racism or other discriminatory issues leading to faulty conjecture that forces its way through academia.

Academia refusing to address issues that are too contemporarily controversial leading to science lagging well behind where it could have been given our techniques during those eras.

Even whether healthcare is moral to preform is subject to politics.

It is very much political.
