The U.S. Food and Drug Administration fought back on Friday against what it calls “the proliferation of misinformation” by Florida’s Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo about the safety of COVID-19 vaccines.
In a letter earlier this month to the FDA, Ladapo had questioned the agency’s drug approval and raised alarms about what he sees as the risk of potential cancer posed by COVID-19 mRNA vaccines. Ladapo, the leader of Florida’s health department, said he believed the drug delivery system used by mRNA vaccines could be an “efficient vehicle for delivering contaminant DNA into human cells.”
But a top researcher with the FDA released a public response to Ladapo on Friday saying the Surgeon General’s scientific assertion regarding the cancer risk is “implausible.”
…
“These questions (raised by Ladapo) are designed to scare people rather than investigate true science,” she said. “What we do know is that COVID continues to kill thousands of people every month in the U.S. I think he is doing a disservice to the people of Florida by trying to scare them into not getting a vaccine that can be lifesaving.”
That doesn’t even make sense you fucking idiot. His goal by trying to get people to stop getting the vax is to maximize the negative effects of the vax?
How the fuck would stopping people from getting it maximize the damage done by those that get it?
It’s a miracle you even manage to draw breath you fucking imbecile
I believe you are mostly correct. The vaccines are generally safe and his intentions are not for the general public's interest. But, just like his special case exists, so do the circumstances in which the vaccines can be dangerous.
Blindly saying he is completely wrong about everything when we can't know that for sure is in itself wrong because we can't be absolutely sure that he is, even though he may be.
I think the word applied here is "semantics".
But not per say. Spinning the tale to fit his view doesn't have to be completely correct, it just has to be not wrong.
And the title isn't wrong, the vaccines aren't safe, they're safe enough. As in the side effects are negligible. Spinning words, it's the political way.
