Florida has NOT ended all vaccine mandates.
And the fact that so many people confidently believe it has… should terrify you.
Florida gets branded as the “free state”—but Nurse Nicole (BSN, RN, CLNC) says the headlines don’t match reality. In this episode of NursesOutLoud, Jodi O’Malley sits down with a Central Florida bedside nurse and medical freedom advocate to set the record straight: Florida has NOT ended all vaccine mandates.
Nicole breaks down what was promised, what voters thought was coming, and what actually showed up in the filed companion bills—plus what was included (like a potential philosophical exemption, strengthened informed consent language, parental signature requirements, and more).
They unpack how legislation really works, why “breadcrumbs” can distract from the main objective, and how lobbying pressure can derail public promises.
Most importantly, this episode is a call to action for nurses and citizens: read the bills, stop outsourcing discernment to influencers, and engage locally—because local and state policy is where freedom is either protected or quietly traded away.
