Board members at Southwest District Health, outside of Boise, questioned the vaccine’s safety during their Oct. 22 meeting and narrowly voted to stop providing the shot in the six counties they serve.
Health departments in Texas, Florida and Michigan that led vaccination campaigns in their communities at the height of the pandemic have also pushed back against the COVID-19 vaccine.
Last year, Texas policymakers banned health departments and other organizations funded by the state government from using funds to promote their vaccination efforts.
The Florida Department of Health issued guidance in September warning Floridians not to get mRNA COVID-19 shots after Joseph Ladapo, the state’s surgeon general, recommended people avoid them in 2023.
In Michigan, commissioners in Ottawa County turned down a $900,000 grant for their health department in September. Joe Moss, chair of the commission, said at the time he was “opposed to accepting any COVID grants,” according to the The Holland Sentinel. The revised budget came a year after threats to slash funding sparked local protests.
This is a deeply unserious country. 
Capitalists wanted to cut all COVID aid (wouldn’t want the proles getting ideas) and manufacture the end of the pandemic so that people went back to work ASAP. To do this, they have to convince people that COVID is not a threat, because actually dealing with COVID would take too long (and might give those proles those ideas). So the billionaires who own all of the media in the country (and the world, for that matter) start a non-stop broad spectrum propaganda campaign about why you should stop worrying about COVID and go back to Applebee’s. Anti-vax, anti-mask, anti-lockdown, etc messaging is shot out of a firehose directly into the chud brainstem by a half-dozen media networks.
