A group of high-level managers at the Louisiana Department of Health walked into a Nov. 14 meeting in Baton Rouge expecting to talk about outreach and community events.
Instead, they were told by an assistant secretary in the department and another official that department leadership had a new policy: Advertising or otherwise promoting the COVID, influenza or mpox vaccines, an established practice there — and at most other public health entities in the U.S. — must stop.
NPR has confirmed the policy was discussed at this meeting, and at two other meetings held within the department’s Office of Public Health, on Oct. 3 and Nov. 21, through interviews with four employees at the Department of Health, which employs more than 6,500 people and is the state’s largest agency.
We’re going to start needing state border checkpoints so that deadly diseases from states run by fucking idiots don’t travel to states not run by fucking idiots.
Don’t worry, it’s hard to travel from LA to a place not run by idiots. I know you can’t get there by car. You’re going to need at least an airplane, maybe a starship.
I mean, there’s always going to be some regular idiots, but not all states are run by fucking idiots.
