DeSantis Changes Mind—Allows Florida To Buy Covid Vaccines For Kids 5 And Younger




quote:

Florida has joined all 49 other states ordering Covid vaccines through a federal program for children age 5 and younger, according to multiple reports, after Governor Ron DeSantis (R) faced immense criticism for making the state the sole holdout in buying vaccines.

Is it mandating them or making them available for those who want them? Big distinction between the two.

If a parent wants to give their kid the shot, fine. As long as its not mandatory for these kids anywhere.

Making them available obviously.....

If you want to get vaccinated then by all means do so.....if you don't want to then don't

Not for many here. Just look through the threads.




It's the same stance as Trump. No Mandate. Your choice.

Kinda like an abortion right? If you want one, it's ok. If you are against it, that ok too. Government shouldn't intervene in our bodily choices. Correct?

Well what you posted is a complete lie.

quote:

Jeremy Redfern, press secretary for the Florida Department of Health, said that “the fact that the White House is trying to say that we somehow changed our approach is a complete lie.” “Preorder means before the emergency use authorization. The emergency use authorization is now out, so providers are allowed to order on their own,” he said. “We didn’t preorder because we did not want to be the storage unit for the CDC.” The governor’s office said in a statement that “it is patently false that Florida has ‘reversed course’ or changed its position in any way with regards to the COVID vaccine for children under 5.


quote:

“We have never held the position that the state would prohibit healthcare providers from ordering the vaccine,” said Bryan Griffin, a deputy press secretary for the governor. “We have always maintained the position that the State of Florida has chosen not to be involved in the preordering or distribution of the vaccine for children under 5. The State of Florida does not recommend the vaccine be administered to healthy children. Unfortunately, many media outlets have assumed that government is the only means by which something happens in today’s society, and have convoluted a lack of state action or support with a ban or prohibition.”

If that's what the representatives of your state decides, hopefully based on the will of the majority of that state's citizens.

Sounds like he’s giving them the option. This is the way. He should not ban the option to vaccinate children, even if it is for Covid.

Trump likes to brag at every opportunity and remind people how he got vaccines pushed through in record time and rightfully so.....

DeSantis buys vaccines for the state and the OP tries to spin it as a negative

He is, OP posted an article looking to ding Desantis without reading it, and catching the buzzwords that tell you the story is bullshite like "sources say". When you follow the rabbit hole, you find out what actually happened, which i linked above.
