Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis ® and the state’s surgeon general are advising against the use of updated COVID-19 vaccines for anyone under the age of 65, a move that counters a new recommendation from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Speaking Wednesday on a panel with other physicians who have cast doubt on the COVID vaccine — including some who lobbied Trump administration officials to back the “herd immunity” theory — Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo expressed concerns over the shot’s safety, saying incorrectly that there was “not a drop of clinical trial data” supporting the vaccines.

“We continue to live in a world where the CDC and the [Food and Drug Administration], when it comes to COVID at least, are just beating their own path in a direction that’s inexplicable in terms of thinking about data and in thinking about common sense,” Ladapo said.

    I would agree with you, but considering DeSantis’ politics, he’s making the world (or, at least, Florida) a far worse place. People like DeSantis is dangerous for a lot of people, where they could literally die due to his politics, which he is signing into law(s).

    I don’t want people to die, but when you’re hurting people the way he does, I honestly believe the world would be better without them. I want Pootintin to die as well - his beliefs and politics have killed tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of people. In Europe, the gas and electricity prices are growing steadily due to his, making poor people even poorer. There are elderly who has to decide to either pay their electricity bill or get food due to the russian fucktard. But hey, good thing I’m not a politician!
