In February, I highlighted a statement by Louisiana Surgeon General Ralph L. Abraham, commending it for its pro-freedom tone. I also noted that “I will be watching for follow-up actions.” Well, on Thursday, Abraham came out with a powerful editorial again strongly arguing for employing a pro-freedom approach in relation to medical issues.

In July, the American Academy of Pediatrics, which was recently criticized by United States Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. for its major financial backing from and cozy relationship with Big Pharma, launched an effort urging state and local governments to eliminate virtually all exemptions parents can claim to protect their children from the plethora of vaccine shots required for attendance at school or daycare. On Wednesday, Florida State Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo announced in a speech at an event where he shared the stage with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis the commencement of an effort backed by Ladapo and DeSantis to take the opposite course of action — eliminate all vaccine mandates in the state.
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) has long been an adamant pusher for children in America to be given an increasingly long list of shots at an early age as laid out in the childhood vaccine schedule of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Indeed, as I wrote about recently, the AAP last month took another step forward in its relentless shots pushing. It advocated in a new policy statement the elimination of nearly all exemptions to vaccine mandate laws parents can obtain so their children may attend daycares and schools without being injected with each and every shot on a one-size-fits-all list.
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) distinguished itself as an obsessive shots pusher and freedom theatener during the coronavirus crackdown. It was admonishing that children — who were at very minimal risk from coronavirus — be subjected to the quack practices of masking and social distancing to protect them until they became “fully vaccinated” with experimental coronavirus “vaccine” shots. The AAP was also calling on pediatricians to evangelize for giving these dangerous and ineffective shots to nearly all children in the age groups for which the United States government had approved the shots.
An early warning sign that your child’s pediatrician is a coronavirus propagandist instead of a trusted source of information regarding coronavirus is zealous enforcement of a requirement that you and your child wear masks in the pediatrician’s office. It is not established that masks provide net protection against coronavirus. What is established is that masks can cause health problems.
It will probably get worse from there. Many pediatricians and their employees will pursue with vigor a primary mission of ensuring that every child who enters their offices and can receive experimental coronavirus “vaccine” shots — now children down to age five — do receive those shots immediately. Soon even babies will likely be in the crosshairs.
While state and local governments, schools, businesses, and various venues have lately been removing mask and social distancing requirements for adults and children, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) this week laid out its recommendation that all children and adolescents, ages two and older, who have not been “fully vaccinated” for coronavirus wear masks and “socially distance” in a wide variety of circumstances when they are outside their homes. The AAP’s mask wearing recommendation even extends to at home “in households that include medically fragile, immunocompromised, or at-risk adults and children.”
