Christian Hollywood actress and star of “Full House” and “Fuller House” Candace Cameron Bure took to Instagram today to clarify her stance on the COVID-19 vaccine and vaccine mandates.
Candace Cameron Bure Takes Aim At Vaccine Mandates
Cameron Bure shared vaccine related graphics from the account @thegirlnamedblake on Instagram to include one that says, “I’m not anti-v, I’m just pro-medical freedom.”
One of the other graphics read, “I’m not anti-v, I’m just pro-immune system.”
Cameron Bure revealed in her caption that she fully agreed with the content of these graphics.
“This. This is not about what I am against. This is what I am FOR. Read and understand the distinction ??,” she captioned her post. “This mama is holding the line and standing up for freedom. This should not separate us. We can have different opinions and still respect and love one another. Be bigger than that!”

Candace Cameron Bure Has Long Opposed Vaccine Mandates
Page Six reported that Cameron Bure had previously said in her Instagram Story that while she wouldn’t reveal if she was vaccinated or not, she is vehemently against vaccine mandates.
“I can no longer stay silent on vaccine mandates,” Cameron Bure said. “Although I will not disclose my vaccination status to you, I am absolutely opposed to vaccine MANDATES, anywhere,” she wrote in a since-expired Story from September. “We must speak up.”
What the public might not realize is that Candace Cameron Bure has opposed vaccine mandates for years.
All the way back in 2015, she wrote in a Facebook post that she respected her children’s schools for giving parents a choice with vaccines.
“Although my children are vaccinated, I’m glad I had the choice when it comes to school. I have many family and friends who choose not to vaccinate for different reasons,” she wrote at the time. “Some of them already homeschool and my guess is that [a] whole lot more in California are going to. SHOUTOUT to HOMESCHOOL PARENTS and CO-OPS.”

Biden’s Vaccine Mandate Executive Orders
E! News reported that this comes one month after President Joe Biden issued two executive orders mandating vaccines for federal workers and contractors, as well as healthcare workers.
“With vaccinations we’re going to beat this pandemic finally,” he said. “Without them we face endless months of chaos in our hospitals, damage to our economy and anxiety in our schools and empty restaurants and much less commerce.”
Many Americans feel the same and believe citizens should be free to make their own decision about getting the COVID-19 vaccine, without being forced to by the government.
Candace Cameron Bure showed courage in sharing her position on vaccine mandates. Especially given her position seems to go against what’s currently accepted as the mainstream norm.
