A department spokesperson confirmed Louisiana Surgeon General Ralph Abraham had ordered his staff to stop engaging in media campaigns and community health fairs to encourage vaccinations, even as the state has experienced a surge in influenza.
Abraham’s announcement occurred the same day vaccine skepticRobert F. Kennedy Jr. was sworn in by the U.S. Senate to serve as President Donald Trump’s health secretary.
In a separate letter posted on the department’s website, Louisiana’s surgeon general decried “blanket government mandates” for vaccines and criticized the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s COVID-19 vaccination push. Individuals should make their own decisions about vaccinations, Abraham said.
Sure, people should be able to make their own decisions. But they’ll be able to make much better-informed decisions if you do your job and educate the populace about the life-saving benefits of vaccines. This guy should be stripped of his medical license.
I live in Louisiana. You can’t educate about vaccines here. Most people do not believe anything officials say about vaccines.
You can bet they’re all vaccinated.
Why?
Louisiana is in the bottom 5 in US education. Now you know how dumb they are.

Fitting his name is Abraham as he’ll be able to count the infected and dead like he would count the stars in the sky.
Well, I guess we can use fewer Louisianans. This is probably a net gain.
