Very much a loophole. The Pope was very clear that it was a moral duty to receive the vaccine, it may not have been written into doctrine but he was very clear. So he's not really special? Aside from a very specific instance of issuing doctrine he's just some guy with opinions?
As far as I know the only people ever censured or excommunicated are those who would possibly weaken the Church were they still allowed to associate with it in some way (e.g. high ranking members going to other churches or speaking up directly against the Vatican) so using the fact they didn't censure a huge portion of the members (an action that would hurt the Church by drastically reducing membership) isn't really material
Lol! "because it doesn't exist"... You said it yourself... As a Catholic I am not bound to assent to Magisterium that doesn't exist. Thanks! God bless!

Can you show me Magisterial teaching where he made it clear that the faithful are bound to receive the vaccine under pain of sin?
No I can't because it doesn't exist, that doesn't negate any of the points I made or provide any direct answers to the questions I just asked

Lol indeed, way to dodge everything else
