Florida surgeon general calls on feds to help the 'vaccine injured'

[Zorro]

In speech in Tampa, Joseph Ladapo calls for more research into the effect of mRNA COVID-19 vaccines.

Florida’s top health official blasted the manufacturer’s of mRNA COVID-19 vaccines and wants the federal government to do more to help those he described as the “vaccine injured.”

Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo described the vaccines manufactured by Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna as “not fit for human use.” He also called on the federal government and the National Institute of Health to expand its research on long COVID to include people who had experienced adverse effects from either COVID-19 shots or boosters.

“We need to study this better,” he said. “We need to fund physicians who are caring for these patients clinically and who are doing scientific work in this area.”

Ladapo also praised Health and Humans Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s decision in May to remove the COVID-19 vaccine from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention immunization schedule for pregnant women and healthy children.

He did not mention that the federal government tweaked that guidance days later making the vaccine available for children six months and up in consultation with their pediatrician.

[Towlie]

3. And he probably won't answer any legitimate requests for evidence. (Pun Warning)

You've heard of a duck that quacks? He'll probably be a quack that ducks.

4. Vaccine injured? WTF does that mean coming from a Surgeon General

Because he's only supposed to be qualified to speak to the medical impacts of the vaccine.
Have hundreds of male cousins had to have their pingpong balls removed because of COVID vaccine swelling?

Are there thousands of formerly able bodied people applying for disability because of the 5g chips implanted through the COVID vaccine affected their ability to control their arms?

Or is it just thousands of MAGA who claim their normal pre-covid minor attitude of confused, petulant sloth has continued to increase exponentially after being forced into getting their vaccines during Covid if they wanted to keep their jobs, and now half their friends can't stand them?

Who is he talking about?
