LA Forbids Public Health Workers from Promoting COVID, Flu, and Mpox Vaccines

[Hammster]

How about a state that promotes the welfare and wellbeing of the people?

-CryptoLutheran

That would be a nanny state.

 

[Hammster]

Providing helpful information isn't a nanny state.

You assume it’s helpful.

Vaccines save lives!

If so, then we've always intended to be one.

We the People of the United States, in order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.​

-- A2SG, of the people, by the people and for the people, and all that stuff....

What???

Yes, the people of LA evidently need to be protected from information about vaccines and their availability.

 

[Hammster]

Vaccines save lives!

Except for the ones that don’t.

lol. If that’s what you think they meant, then okay.

Why?

 

[A2SG]

lol. If that’s what you think they meant, then okay.

What do you think they meant?

-- A2SG, I can only read what was written, I'm not privy to their thoughts on the matter....

It's so childish when folks are so antigovernment they don't even follow the scientific common sense advice it provides. "Don't tell me to wash my hands often! I'll wash them any time I dang we'll please! Like never"

It seems more reactionary that grounded in decades of research.

It’s childish to act like children who need the government to tell you to wash your hands. You should be doing that already.

But if you need a reminder, then okay.

 

[BCP1928]

Why?

I don't know. You'll have to ask the LA Dept. of Public Health.

I need government to provide advice for healthy living. It does that.

I don't need the government withholding good science from me for ANY reason.

 

[ViaCrucis]

That would be a nanny state.

Alright, I guess no more public infrastructure, no more military, no more laws. After all, wouldn't want "the nanny state" toget involved with things like national defense, maintaining societal order, or having working roads.

Louisiana forbids public health workers from promoting COVID, flu and mpox shots : Shots - Health News

https://www.npr.org/sections/shots-health-news/2024/12/20/nx-s1-5223440/louisiana-ban-public-health-promoting-covid-flu-mpox-vaccines-landry-rfk-jr-anti-vaccine

At a Sept. 26, 2024 legislative meeting on the state's handling of the COVID pandemic, Abraham and Coleman repeated misinformation about COVID vaccine safety and the debunked link between vaccines and autism.

"I see, now, vaccine injury every day of my practice" from COVID vaccines, Abraham said.

Abraham said masking, lockdowns and vaccination requirements "were practically ineffective," that COVID vaccine adverse effects have been "suppressed," that "we don't know" whether blood from people who've been vaccinated is safe for donation and that "we hope and pray" COVID vaccines don't increase the risk miscarriages.

Surgeon General Abraham also said "there's nothing wrong" with Louisiana conducting its own research into whether childhood vaccines cause autism.

"You could probably fill Tiger Stadium with moms who have kids that were normal one day, got a vaccine and were then autistic after," said Deputy Surgeon General Coleman at that meeting.

Those public comments by Abraham and Coleman are inaccurate and alarming, according to public health experts.

"Anyone who's articulating that these vaccines are not well tested, they're not safe, they're not effective, is not giving you the science as we know it today," said APHA's Benjamin.


Louisiana’s Surgeon General, and deputy Surgeon General might want to update their knowledge?

Then who is acting like a child?

Promoting the general welfare is a constitutional goal of the government.

 

[Pommer]

Promoting the general welfare is a constitutional goal of the government.

That’s just in the Preamble, though.

Coincidentally, here’s the page from the Louisiana Department of Health (which sort of still exists) that informs the public of how the flu season is progressing. Interestingly, the last two weeks haven’t been updated yet. EDIT: the week ending December 14 has updated.

What a switch around compared to 3 years ago. A thing we learned about the covid matter is that we lost the forest thru the trees. It became more of an opp for politicians to try & prove their omniscience & benevolence so they could either get their Nobel Prize or name on some building. So they overpromoted the put on masks stuff under the guise of protecting people from germs. They overpromoted a vaccines in order to get this on their resume that they ran the administration which created the cure-all. Sadly I wished it were a cure-all. Lesson-take a bit more time to develop it. Mostly they were testing compliance from the people to see how well they would obey & stay duck-taped in their homes, not venturing outside. Here the powers would then determine whether they & their cronies could go about doing their cocktail parties & poker clubs, knowing that the folks would remain restrained inside & that you would not have to worry about some event. Then we had the arms of govt go along with the scam. The events point out the inherent folly of mankind...that they don't really care about us, it was rather about giving the idea that they cared & conserving money. And so we saw in NY & even my state, that one way to conserve medicaid monies was to send some sick folks back to the nursing home where they could spread the germs thus leading to the timely extinguishment of the vulnerable & preserve the monies for the younger society. After all what good are these folks? I have never seen such evil. And it shows the true character of politicians. Ok maybe not every single one, but many of them. They are so lacking faith & seeing the forest thru the trees. We keep going down this road. And the media keeps playing up these leaders as if they were omnipotent, omniscient, & benevolent. It's rather like 1 out of 100 can truly see the forest & use good judgment in such crisis & not venture down the path of trying to prove how great they are. This only comes from known the stories of the Bible. You have to stay on the straight & narrow. You can't make yourself into a hero by being secretly self-centerd. It does not promote victimhood either. Remember the paralytic. Christ told him to take up his pallet & go home. He did not call him a taxi.
