Florida’s firebrand surgeon general is calling for use of mRNA COVID-19 vaccines to be stopped.
Joseph Ladapo, M.D., wrote a letter to Robert Califf, M.D., commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and Mandy Cohen, M.D., MPH, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), last month. He cited a preprint study from October, which was not peer reviewed or published in a medical journal, claiming there are “nucleic acid contaminants” in both the Pfizer and Moderna mRNA vaccines.
Dr. Ladapo claims, without sufficient backing, that these contaminants can lead to the development of cancer, and damage a person’s blood, heart, lungs, liver, kidney and other organs.
The FDA replied to the surgeon general that there was no evidence the shots posed these types of danger, according to a statement from the Florida Department of Health on Wednesday.

Phenylphedrine wasn’t recently released, it was just not well studied to be a nasal decongestant because Sudafed was a drug with a novel of evidence that it worked. It was just thought to be the next best thing after the OTC ban because it worked on a a similar mechanism and there was some (old as shit) studies that suggested it may work. No one was running further studies as Pseudoephedrine was just seen as the better drug.
All Alzheimer’s drugs? My grandma was on something which significantly slowed the progress of the disease quite a few years ago.
