DeSantis and his crackpot surgeon general attack COVID vaccination with misinformation, cherry-picked data and lies. They're a menace to public health as long as they have jobs.

Joe Rogan, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and other anti-vaccine conspiracy-mongers keep insisting that experts debate them in public. The experts are right to refuse.Demanding a randomized prospective trial for every iteration of this vaccine makes no more sense than doing so for the annual updates of the flu vaccine, which doesn’t happen, Offit says.

In the case of COVID, Offit told me, “the critical immunological component responsible for protecting against severe disease is the memory T-cells, which are long-lived and recognize parts of the virus that have been generally conserved, from Wuhan-1 [the original recognized strain] to BA.2.86 [the rapidly spreading strain against which the new vaccines are expected to be effective].”

“Multiple studies” in the U.S., the Middle East, Iceland and other places, he said, “are now finding that after four to six months, what was just waning effectiveness ... is entering a negative area,” which means that after a period there is “risk of increased infection. This is obviously an enormous finding.”
