WHEREAS, Florida’s Surgeon General, Dr. Joseph Ladapo, announced in March of 2022 that the state of Florida no longer recommends COVID-19 vaccines for healthy children and also stated the following in a January 2024 press release: “If the risks of DNA integration have not been assessed for mRNA COVID-19 vaccines, these vaccines are not appropriate for use in human beings.” (4) (5)
