Lost Credibility

Truly sad to see how the medical community shot themselves (pun intended) in the foot:

• Amid an outbreak of measles at a Florida elementary school, the state's surgeon general has defied federal health guidance and told parents it's up to them whether they want to keep their unvaccinated child home to avoid infection.

  In a letter to parents of children attending Manatee Bay Elementary school in Weston, where six cases of measles have already been reported, Florida surgeon general Dr. Joseph Ladapo said the state health department "is deferring to parents or guardians to make decisions about school attendance."

  That advice runs counter to what Ladapo acknowledged in his letter was the "normal" recommendation that parents keep unvaccinated children home for up to 21 days -- the incubation period for measles.

Vaccine "hesitancy" is skyrocketing across the nation, bolstered by info (some good, some bad) about the COVID jab's side effects and the unexplained upticks in deaths. 

Measles is a mostly preventable disease that had been all but eradicated in the US until the waves of illegals started arriving. But the refusal of the medical establishment to rationally discuss parental hesitancy and legitimate concerns concerning a minimally tested "vaccine" that did nothing to prevent the occurrence of and/or spread of COVID and seemingly contributed to a massive incidence of childhood cardiac events.

But hey, get that shot, wear that mask, or you'll be banned from polite society....unless you can afford to fly your daughter and her horse to Florida for the summer.
