Alex Berenson criticized recent attempts by the Left to make us forget about the vaccine mandates enacted just two years ago.
“We were all around for it,” Berenson told host Dan Proft on the “Counterculture” podcast. “It was not fifty years ago, it was two falls ago.”
“There was tremendous pressure to get vaccinated at tremendous societal cost or lose your job or potentially be excluded from shopping, as happened in some places, or being at university,” Berenson said. “There was no question that the government policy was by every means short of force, to encourage vaccination.”
Berenson is a former NY Times journalist and author of “Pandemia: How Coronavirus Hysteria Took Over Our Government, Rights, and Lives.”
He and Proft discussed “Covid 1.5” and the recent return of mask mandates and “vaccine” pressure.
