Biden admin launching ‘door-to-door’ push to vaccinate Americans, sparks major backlash
< < Go Back
The Biden administration is launching a new “door-to-door” effort to vaccinate Americans after falling short of its Fourth of July goal of having 70% of the adult population with at least one shot of the coronavirus vaccine.
Amid the administration’s ongoing concerns of a surge of the more contagious Delta variant of the virus.
Critics were quick to slam the new initiative on social media, including several GOP lawmakers.
How about don’t knock on my door.
You’re not my parents. You’re the government. Make the vaccine available, and let people be free to choose.
Why is that concept so hard for the left? https://t.co/Fkv3kzNh6S

“The government now wants to go door-to-door to convince you to get an ‘optional’ vaccine,” Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., warned.
“Hell no,” Republican congressional candidate Sean Parnell exclaimed.
“Vaccine education and conversation should be between a doctor and patient, not by a grassroot government door knocker,” physician and Fox News contributor Dr. Nicole Saphier wrote.
“A lot of people have big government antibodies. Don’t knock on those doors,” Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., wrote.
“It’s NONE of the governments business knowing who has or hasn’t been vaccinated,” Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz., similarly expressed.
“Whoever suggested that the best way to reach remaining vaccine skeptics was to talk about going door to door should be fired immediately. It’s the Beto O’Rourke of vaccine outreach,” GOP strategist Matt Whitlock knocked the Biden administration.
“How will the government know who is vaccinated or not for this kind of targeting?” Daily Wire senior editor Ashe Short asked.
