Here is the Florida Senate webpage, look for S 2006 e2
https://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2021/2006/?Tab=BillText
Here is some of the text for that Bill.
1097 4. Ordering an individual to be examined, tested,
1098 vaccinated, treated, isolated, or quarantined for communicable
1099 diseases that have significant morbidity or mortality and
1100 present a severe danger to public health. Individuals who are
1101 unable or unwilling to be examined, tested, vaccinated, or
1102 treated for reasons of health, religion, or conscience may be
1103 subjected to isolation or quarantine.
1104 a. Examination, testing, vaccination, or treatment may be
1105 performed by any qualified person authorized by the State Health
1106 Officer.
1107 b. If the individual poses a danger to the public health,
1108 the State Health Officer may subject the individual to isolation
1109 or quarantine. If there is no practical method to isolate or
1110 quarantine the individual, the State Health Officer may use any
1111 means necessary to vaccinate or treat the individual.
If you look at the bottom of the page of text you see that the Bill went in to effect on July 1st, 2021. Desantis himself may never forcibly vaccinate Florida residents but who is to say future dictators would not use this to do the unthinkable. This should have never been signed in to law. This bill needs to be amended to remove this wording from the bill. Perhaps Desantis didn't read the bill or didn't grasp the ramifications of the bill. We should make our concerns known to him.

In my view there is one purpose in posts like this, to spread fear and doubt on a popular figure in the maga movement.
I reject it.
Did I agree with everything in every bill Ronald Reagan signed? How easy would it be to go back through all the legislation and
A_HAH! Ronald Reagan signed a bill that said X! We must all now hate Ronald Reagan!
Nope. Give it up. not going to work.
Well, it's true that the bill exists.
It is not true that Desantis was the one to originally signed it.
It is true that it is still on the books.
It is also true that Desantis won't be governor forever, and statutes like this are a threat to freedom.
It is not fear mongering to point out that bad and potentially threatening laws should be pointed out and taken off the books.
SOMEBODY put that statute in place. Jeb Bush and his co-conspirators in the Florida legislature at the time.
Nothing wrong with pointing it out. Just that it keeps popping up as a "recent" thing that is not recent. (But it IS currently on the books.)
