‘A Lot of Red Flags’: Florida Surgeon General Advises People to Stay Away From New COVID-19 Vaccine
Florida’s Surgeon General, Dr. Joseph Ladapo, expressed reservations about the updated COVID-19 booster vaccine during a recent press conference. He emphasized that this particular booster has not yet received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Its intended purpose is to combat the BA.2.86 Omicron subvariant of the virus, according to reports from Fox News.
Dr. Ladapo underscored that there is limited evidence supporting the efficacy of this new mRNA COVID-19 vaccine. He pointed out that no clinical trials involving humans have been conducted to demonstrate its benefits or safety. Additionally, he raised concerns about potential red flags associated with this booster, including the possibility of causing cardiac injury in some individuals.
Dr. Ladapo encouraged individuals in Florida to make decisions based on their own convictions and personal beliefs. He urged people to trust their own judgment, emphasizing the importance of discerning truth for oneself rather than solely relying on expert opinions.
Dr. Ladapo also suggested that focusing on maintaining a healthy diet and lifestyle could be a valuable approach in managing COVID-19 risks. He has previously criticized the efficacy of COVID masks and potential lockdowns, advocating for policies that are proven to be effective and minimize harm.
It’s worth noting that while mask mandates have reappeared in some parts of the country, Florida law prohibits businesses, schools, and government entities from enforcing such mandates. This debate surrounding COVID-19 measures continues to generate diverse perspectives and opinions.
