Apparently the tracking microchips aren’t in the vaccine. Time to switch to a rotary dial land line.

Idiot.

Some of the responses:

Everyone needs to be vaccinated. How many dead do you want?

Since when is giving people correct information and offering them help considered “forcing” them to do something?

Where in the text does it say ANY of what you say-force vaccine compliance? Where? Is scaring the base the only way you know how to communicate, Senator?

What is wrong with a text message about how to get to a vaccine? I thought earlier you were praising how fast Trump got the vaccine done and now you don’t want people to take it? Which is it, you can’t have both?

Hey Josh, how’s that Delta Outbreak going in MO? Are you waiting for the Lambda version to arrive too?

Making something available and easier to get is not forcing.

So now the GOP doesn’t want Americans to get vaccinated? Headuptheass is a serious disease and it looks like we have another pandemic on our hands

Do you live in 2002? Are you paying per text?

Heard you were big on technology. Guess that was false

#protip: you can’t vaccinate text messages, mobile phones, etc.

Missouri counties are in the top 20 of USA for covid cases, hospitalizations, and death. Your voters are dying and You have no answers or appropriate response.

The irony is that the Biden administration is encouraging rural conservatives to get this life-saving vaccine, and you’re encouraging them to get this deadly virus.

Stopping the spread of misinformation and saving lives is such a horrible thing.

Those aren’t the text messages you should be worried about Joshy boy

We see what you did there.

Offering information is not force. Try helping America instead of standing in the way.

When undermining the world’s oldest democracy isn’t enough.

So managing public health concerns isn’t easy and I’m not sure where the privacy lines should be drawn but at least thought being put into it is better than a finger pointing Twitter barrage. Nice job as usual telling me something I can read myself.

Great! Conveying public health information is the function of good government. Thank you

That’s not at all what this says Josh.

I get amber alerts automatically. What’s the difference?

They might even start making you wear shoes in restaurants

That’s not what this says.

Your state is doing great. Keep up the good work.

God forbid Americans are informed

Bold of you to come out against Amber Alerts

The day they start “fact checking” my text messages to friends and family is the day I covfefe.

Bet your glad you live in VA now so your family is safe.

Oh the horror! People who want to be vaccinated getting vaccinated!! #Jerk

“To force vaccine compliance”? Did you actually read the thing you posted? It says no such thing. You’re not even a good liar.

Idiot.
