More than 520 of America’s 5,300 colleges and universities, approximately 10 percent, have announced students must be fully vaccinated against COVID before they return for fall classes. Among these institutions are the public universities of California and New York, pending full U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval of the vaccines. Together, these two systems enroll approximately 1.5 million students.
Other state universities that have enacted vaccine “mandates” include the universities of Michigan and Maryland, as well as Indiana University. Scores of private institutions have also mandated COVID vaccines, including Yale, Stanford, Duke, Johns Hopkins, Cornell, Notre Dame, Emory, Brown, Syracuse, Boston University, and Princeton.
We think that these mandates are unethical, chiefly because they indiscriminately require administering an experimental biological agent in the setting of a clinical investigation to a population that is at greater risk of harm from the drug than from COVID. Our advice to schools that have not yet adopted vaccine mandates is: don’t.
But where participation in the investigational vaccination program is nevertheless required by university policies, there must be sensible, medically sound policies for granting medical exemptions.

I wonder how these 61 people were selected to have the President commute their sentences? I’d have expected him to start with jailed drug users, not dealers. Some of these people were jailed for selling kilos of cocaine, for example. Today’s WaPo lists the names and charges of every one of these 61 lucky people.
Flu vaccine is being recommended for the entire US population over 6 months of age, starting this year. The (non-live) vaccines will contain 3 antigens, one of which is the antigen used for swine flu vaccines since late 2009. In 2009, DHHS Secretary Sibelius issued a Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act waiver of liability…
The Dutch health minister overbought swine flu vaccine, ignoring official advice of authorities in Holland. What did WHO recommend at that point in time? From Dutch News: Health minister Ab Klink ignored advice from both the Dutch vaccine and public health institutes when he bought 34 million doses of swine flu vaccine last year, RTL…
The federal government continues to try and fool the public into thinking misinformation is a dire problem and a crime. Misinformation is whatever the government does not want you to know. Here the FDA has a new one minute video about misinformation and rumor control. Clearly, the feds are getting nervous that their cons on…
