Thousands Attend Anti-Vaccine Mandate Rally in DCNewsmax, Jan 23, 2022
More than 30,000 protestors came to Washington, D.C., Sunday, calling for nationwide COVID-19 vaccine mandates to come to an end.
The protest began at approximately noon at the Washington Monument, eventually moving to the Lincoln Memorial where speakers shared their reasons for calling for the mandates to end. The rally ended at approximately 3:30 p.m.
Between 30,000 and 35,000 attended the protest, which was organized by the group Defeat the Mandates. The marchers demanded an end to mandates and vaccine passports, while calling for debate and informed consent.
The protest’s organizers were clear that while they are not anti-vaccine, they are against restrictions and mandates for the unvaccinated. McCullough said in his speech that "[N]ow, there’s not a single person here who is against the broad use of vaccines as we use them in our clinical practice. We have a circle of medical freedom. You have the freedom, you and you alone have the autonomy over your body."
He also added that "medical freedom is linked to social and economic freedom. If we allow the circle of medical freedom to even be touched, let alone be broken, all the circles fracture. They all do, and it crumbles. The writing is on the wall, and the determination to preserve medical freedom is in your hands."
Children’s Health Defense head Robert F. Kennedy Jr. spoke at the event as well, and warned of a massive surveillance network being set in place where "none of us can run and none of us can hide"
