From here:
“California will end plans to mandate COVID-19 vaccines for schoolchildren when the state ends its COVID-19 state of emergency on Feb. 28, California Department of Public Health officials told EdSource.”
February 28th?
I thought Resident Poopy Pants nominated May 11th?
Anyway, check this out and note the contradiction between the CDC advice and the FDA:
“Gov. Gavin Newsom announced in October 2021, that California would be the first state to require COVID-19 vaccinations for children to attend school. It was also the first to mandate masking and staff vaccination measures.
At the time, state Sen. Richard Pan proposed legislation to strengthen the vaccine requirement even further by eliminating personal and religious exemptions. The legislation didn’t pass.
The vaccine requirement for children was originally set to kick in on July 1, 2022, when it was expected the vaccines, still under Emergency Use Authorization at the time, would be fully approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
But in April 2022, California announced it would delay the mandate to July 1, 2023.
The FDA still has not fully approved the COVID-19 vaccines for anyone under age 12. The CDC recommends the vaccines and the bivalent boosters for children ages 6 months and older.”
Onwards!
I appreciate that the equivalent of 27 cents a day for a $100 a year subscription is an inconvenience - I drink a lot of coffee – if you like my “stuff” but don’t want to pay for a subscription you can buy me a cup to show (any!) appreciation here: https://ko-fi.com/peterhalligan
So this was voluntarily decided on by California officialdom. As good as the news is, it fits in all too well with the apparently orchestrated "one step backwards" we're seeing all over the world. The ubiquitousness of the seeming retreats smells like something not so good. These enemies within have planned this out for years and that must have included steps to deal with various levels of resistance. Had a court struck down these plans, it would have been one thing. But to do this without any hard political power marshaled against the totalitarians is a tactic, though I can't say precisely for what. What is for sure, though, is that these power cravers are not in the least deflected from their goals.
Hope springs eternal.
