Quote:Friday, the rollback of vaccine outreach was further detailed in a Monday email from agency Chief Medical Officer Dr. Tim Jones.

Jones told staff they should conduct "no proactive outreach regarding routine vaccines" and "no outreach whatsoever regarding the HPV vaccine."

Staff were also told not to do any "pre-planning" for flu shots events at schools. Any information released about back-to-school vaccinations should come from the Tennessee Department of Education, not the Tennessee Department of Health, Jones wrote.

If that is the standard that you wish to assume and use, will you agree that the Democrats are surging ahead on the 'take a giant steaming **** on Free Speech' stance as well?

Right now, the biggest topic in the news around speech is likely the banning of CRT from schools, sooo…

But even you have to admit, after the whataboutism, that antivaxxers had historically been the uber-hippy liberals. Post-COVID, it seems like a large contingent have emerged on the right that either hadn’t been there before, or were generally a lot less noisy.
