In the past year, Central District Health, which serves the counties of Ada, Boisse, Elmore and Valley, delivered more than 4,600 vaccinations To prevent everything from the measles flu.
Friday May 9, The district health council heard a long and sometimes emotional debate on the opportunity to stop one of these vaccines. Since July 2024, the CDH has administered more than 300 coated vaccines; And that’s something, Sydney’s Sydney Buffington told Sydney Buffington, which should absolutely continue.
“Please do not deny this vaccine, which is the first line of defense for the elderly, immunocompromised and people who care and love for them,” said Buffington. “And please do not erode the confidence of public health.”
But what followed for an hour is a series of online presentations of skeptics of exhausted vaccines outside the state, each invited by certain skeptics of the board of directors. One of the guests was the biologist based in Michigan, Christina Sparks, who insisted: “It is the fact that this genetic technology of vaccines is not sure.”
But a representative of the caregivers inside Idaho rejected strong. Dr. Alejandro Necochea, president of the public health committee of the Idaho Medical Association, urged the Council to be wary of what it called “a resurgence of anti-vaccinades campaigns”.
“Many supporters who are paying pressure for this vote have unjustly attacked the integrity of public health professionals. They compared the doctors who recommended coids vaccines to Nazi war criminals,” Necochea said. “Their presentations are more effective in bambooing the public rather than educating.”
Jane Young, a member of the board of directors and family nurse, said that it was enough for him to propose that the board of directors supports the brakes on any effort to stop vaccines. “I would like to move that we put the subject,” she signaled.
Those who voted against the motion of Young were the chairman of the board of directors Greg Ferch, a chiropractor, Clay Tucker, and Dr. Ryan Cole, a pathologist from the garden city who regularly promoted lies on the vaccine. In fact, Cole went so far as to emphasize that the board of directors tests the cavity vaccines existing at the CDH for what it claimed to be “contamination”.
But the majority of the board of directors voted to file the question indefinitely, the authorized nurse Betty Ann Nettleton, the commissioner of the County of Elmore, Crystal Rodgers and the commissioner of the county of Valley, Katlin Caldwell, joining the young people to vote “yes”.
With this, COVVI-19 vaccines are still available in the jurisdiction of the four health counties of the central district.
