Louisiana's Surgeon General Dr. Ralph Abraham wasted no time Thursday in telling state lawmakers that, had he led the state's public health response to the COVID-19 pandemic, he would have done "just about everything" differently.


quote:

"Nearly every intervention attempted by government has been ineffective, counterproductive and antithetical to the core principles of a free society," he said. "Mask mandates, lockdowns, forced closures of churches, schools and businesses, coerced vaccinations, and suppression or intimidation of those who resisted are just a few examples of policies endorsed by the previous administration, which I opposed then and still oppose now.”


quote:

Talking to lawmakers Thursday, Abraham said that masking does not work and called six-foot social distancing rules "ridiculous."

It was known early on that disease posed nearly zero risk to healthy children and that the real risk of harm was associated with the vaccines,” he said.

He said that currently, "I’m not recommending the vaccine for my patients.”

It’s ok. Honor Code told me what he demands was more important than my God given and constitutional rights. While he is maskless at BRCC.

GREAT hearing. Here's the link to the full day's testimony:

Dr. Bob Calhoun's testimony at 6:01:10 is a compelling summary of the situation.

This guy espouses multiple falsehoods. His education is very limited. He probably prescribes the popular "antiviral" Zithromax to all his common cold patients. Couldn't even get into a US medical school, but judge for yourself.

Worry more about what he says is right and less about your rights.

Shocking that Jennifer Avego still has a job. She was completely wrong on every aspect and still provides “expert” opinions.

Look at you using fancy words. You should be the surgeon general. You basically have the training of a foreign medical graduate, right?

Yes why does Ms “get the jab or die” ger a fuqing pass. That hooker needs to be held accountable. I’d really just love to bump into her socially.

And yet he called the pandemic response a travesty, and you know he’s right…. We lived through it, and now look at what we have… Masks never worked, we have multiple retrospective studies that say that they never protected the individual, nor the others around the individual..We have high inflation hurting everyone, cause we shut everything down and injected so much money into supply. We tore down the supply chain by shutting everything down. We introduced a vaccine that didn’t protect anyone and had side effects, and who’s risk/reward ratio didn’t even reach a 1 till age 86… so anyone taking it below age 86, was playing Russian Roulette…we all knew this, but were powerless to stop the mass misinformation, but everyone should know this by now, government doesn’t have our interest…

I still see people, 4 years later, wearing them. By themselves, or in the open air, sometimes even driving alone.

I mean, if it makes YOU feel better, then I’m nobody to tell you you shouldn’t wear one. Just know that re: Covid, it’s like trying to stop a mosquito with a chain-link fence.
