Maybe the pharmacist was trying to avoid a misdemeanor charge.

The conservative mantra "we don't like this, therefore no one should be allowed..."

I wonder what the conservative position would be if someone had a conscientious objection to opening the gun display cabinet at Walmart. No, actually, I don't. I'm pretty sure I know. | |||

Elect clowns, expect a circus. How long before insurance companies stop writing life insurance policies in Idaho?

This is a Florida government link: https://www.floridahealth.gov/...health-alert.pr.html In fairness, it is a controversial [type of] vaccine. | |||

While the Florida surgeon general may have an opinion about vaccines, I don't think it was very informed. He didn't do a very good job as a doctor and scientist advising the public at large. Some context for that Florida link: https://www.tampabay.com/news/...s-mrna-vaers-safety/ But back to the pharmacist in Idaho... Laws vary regarding conscientious objection by pharmacists. All of the cases I've heard relate to refusal to dispense birth control. https://www.usatoday.com/story...e-faith/10154078002/ The part that I take issue with is the pharmacist simply cancelling appointments without calling customers and telling them that they would not be able to get the vaccination and that they would have to make other arrangements. She owed them that courtesy as a professional in a customer service job.

This isn't my understanding. Of course these vaccines were fast-tracked because it was an emergency. They're still under EUA designation as far as I know. | |||

From the Yale medicine website:
Nichols trips herself up everywhere. Informed consent? Don't know about anyone else, but each time I got a shot, I was handed a multi-page document to sign that pretty clearly stated that the vaccine was under an EUA. No data on mRNA vaccines? Don't know what rock she's been hiding under. These have to be the most widely administered and studied vaccines in history. Blood clots? Um, no. That was J&J's vaccine which is not an mRNA vaccine. After problems were identified the guidelines for use were changed to only being administered to people who can't take other COVID vaccines. I'm guessing that change totally took the wind out the sales (  ) of that vaccine.I get that there are differing opinions on COVID vaccines but at least these legislators need to get the basics straight.

wtg, You wrote, "These have been the most widely... studied vaccines in history." The corporations' data has lacked transparency, IMO. We can agree to disagree on these two points. No worries. | |||

I was referencing the studies that have been done since the vaccine got EUA status. Literally hundreds, if not thousands, of studies from around the world have been tracking the safety and efficacy of these vaccines. I'm thinking that you're referring to the initial trials done by the various manufacturers? As is, perhaps, the legislator from Idaho, a perspective I hadn't considered. If so, something to think about is that mRNA technology is not new; it's been studied for decades. We all just heard about it in the context of COVID, so it seems like "new" technology. A timeline of mRNA tech: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-021-02483-w edit: and another excellent overview of vaccine technologies: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-03626-1 Some interesting stats on COVID vaccine administration:
Source What we're doing now is looking at all those people and figuring out how well/poorly the vaccine does, and whether we need to refine our protocols. Certainly the vaccine was launched on an aggressive schedule to a huge a number of people, but from what we were seeing at the time the virus materialized, the severity of the situation seemed to warrant prompt action on the vaccine front. We'll all be looking back to see if the best decisions were made, but of course we have the benefit of hindsight. And we need to be thinking about where we go from here with respect to future vaccines and treatments.

I haven't seen the data post authorization by private entities but I doubt any research has given us a new consensus about any number of issues. The technology has been around decades? I don't know. I know the name of the Dr. who received the patent for it. He said protection is not "linear," there is a possibility of compromising the immune by system by constant/ endless vaccination, and we can't vaccinate our way out of the pandemic. | |||
