Sickening to see universities mandating a 20-year-old man who got three doses & had Omicron to get the bivalent booster. No idea about risk and benefit balance. Clearly won't stop transmission (see CDC director) No logic. Just delusion. And literally a mandate. It's sickening.
Trust in public health and expertise is in the toilet. And we're going to help it by mandating the dumbest idea in western medicine?
All of the laws that protect people who mandate vaccines from legal action are ripe to be turned over by future populist politicians.
The legal cases will be a mess for sure. But there has to be accountability for bad policy making.
Let's be clear. This is the CDC's recommendation for such a person to get the vaccine. The CDC is making that recommendation right now. Madness
