SB 276 and SB 714 Bill and Fiscal Summary
SB 276 and Sb714 as written would put school vaccine medical exemptions under the scrutiny of a state bureaucrat, penalizing children and their doctors rather than creating a bill that would specifically target unscrupulous doctors. We estimate the cost of these bills to be in excess of $50 million in the first year and in excess of approximately $35 million in each subsequent year, with an additional approximately $650 million potential loss in school ADA and/or approximately $5 billion potential increased healthcare costs. All to go after an extremely small and unquantified number of “unscrupulous” doctors and to mitigate the 11 cases of measles in California children this year. There has to be a better, more cost effective way.
Below are various documents that include A Voice for Choice Advocacy’s talking points, fiscal analysis and requested amendments for the bill wording.

Research on SARS-CoV-2 RNA by scientists at Harvard and MIT has implications for how mRNA vaccines could permanently alter genomic DNA, according to Doug Corrigan, Ph.D., a biochemist-molecular biologist who says more research is needed. #TheDefender

ResearchGate today has permanently locked my account, which I have had since 2015.
Their reasons graphically show the nature of their attack against democracy, and their corruption of science.
‘Young, healthy’ South Mississippi man suffers stroke hours after receiving #JohnsonandJohnsonVaccine.

And this is why I just can’t celebrate Pfizer saying the vaccine should be available for adolescents in the US. Sorry. https://twitter.com/drtedros/status/1380580022524710913
On average in high-income countries 1 in 4 people has received a #COVID19 vaccine. In low-income countries it’s 1 in 500+. Scarcity of supply is driving vaccine nationalism and vaccine diplomacy. This is a time for partnership, not patronage. We must accelerate #VaccinEquity now!
