Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) “is now allowing healthcare providers, including pediatricians and children’s hospitals, to order COVID-19 vaccines from a federal program for children between six months and 5 years old, a reversal from earlier this week,” McClatchy reports.

“State health facilities will still not be placing orders for vaccine doses.

go too far because he needs to not be Dr. Death when he tacks to the center in 2024 to get independents when he runs for President. He is going to be Dr. Death once he wins.

This guy is dangerous because he has no clue where the boundaries are. He is drunk on power, reacts rather than thinks, and obviously is not capable of listening to anything other than the voices in his own head. He is also reckless.

Yale certainly is demonstrating that they have miseducated many of their students rather than teaching them critical thinking skills.
