On December 29, Harris County (TX) physician Hasan Gokal decided not to waste ten vaccine doses for the Wuhan virus. Nationwide, tens of thousands of doses of the vaccine have been lost; 1,200 are known to have been wasted in Western Massachusetts alone. In a sane part of the country, his initiative would have been applauded. Once a vial of vaccine is punctured, medical staff have a matter of a few hours to use it, or it must be thrown away.
Unfortunately for Dr. Sokal, he was in Harris County, TX. For his efforts, he was arrested, lost his job, and essentially banned from finding gainful employment. Even after a judge laughed his case out of court, the vindictive Democrat prosecutor is signaling that the case will go to a grand jury in a clear instance of Gokal being “Mike Flynned,” that is, the process is the punishment.....
Several days later, the doctor said, that supervisor and the human resources director summoned him to ask whether he had administered 10 doses outside of the scheduled event on Dec. 29. He said he had, in keeping with guidelines not to waste the vaccine — and was promptly fired.
The officials maintained that he had violated protocol and should have returned the remaining doses to the office or thrown them away, the doctor recalled. He also said that one of the officials startled him by questioning the lack of “equity” among those he had vaccinated.
“Are you suggesting that there were too many Indian names in that group?” Dr. Gokal said he asked.

No good deed ever goes unpunished.
Well, THERE's a new one.
How does this BS come to an end? Sadly, it feels like the republic may need to end to disband the federal government.
Complicated. It’s like the guy who got kicked out of the Boy Scouts for eating too many brownies.
Dot or Feather?
Purge Is The Game!
This is Texas, so I assume it is feather. But I had the same question.
Morgan & Morgan (”for the people”) needs to take this case, and sue the iliatic residue out of everyone complicit in this stupidity. Reasoning with the enemy is no longer an option, if it ever was; hitting them where it hurts is.
Equity. Equality of outcomes. The new PC buzzword.
Too many Indians, but not the Native American kind. I guess Indians from India are not diverse enough.
From the name of the physician involved and seeing how the doses were given to several family members I believe the answer is “dot”.
Excerpt from the article...”In the vernacular of the Critical Race Theory industry, South Asians are “white adjacent,” and giving them the vaccine out of turn, no matter their need, broke the rules of “equity.”
That explains it nicely.
Crazy people are running our government.
Let that sink in.

Racist prosecutor obviously hates East Indian Americans.
100-1 odds he’s a DemoRat.
I was wondering that, too.
Casino Indians or sub-continent Indians?
They sure have some very dark white people. Funny, that line is exactly where I stopped reading. 8>P
“How does this BS come to an end? Sadly, it feels like the republic may need to end to disband the federal government.”
This action appears to be from a county DA trying to make a name for herself, not a federal case.
Maybe a Turban doc.
I did notice that this was a local case. A DA trying to make a name for herself is probably with an eye on promotion to a federal job in the Biden Admin.
