JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — UF Health has announced the passing of Dr. Leon L. Haley Jr., the UF Health Jacksonville CEO.

Dr. Haley was the first Black CEO of UF Health.

He played a pivotal role in getting the COVID-19 vaccine rolled out in Jacksonville, especially in the Black community.

 

Dr. Haley became the first person vaccinated in Florida against COVID-19 in December of last year.

He said when he received the vaccine he wanted to help Black people who are hesitant about getting the vaccine.

Dr. Haley supported Black faith leaders and helped tell Back people the science is safe for them to get the vaccine.

Action News Jax just spoke with Dr. Haley on Friday, July 23, in a community health briefing that discussed vaccination rates, vaccine hesitancy and COVID-19 variants.

I agree. If it was accidental that would have lead the story, like “In a tragic accident...”

Fine. But the piece reads like, “A Martyr has fallen in the cause.” Even though, as you say, probably from something else.

There are other lionizations and the living speaking for the dead.

America’s Press is dead, and we are left with this lame propaganda arm of the Left.

In the initial report the family asked for privacy. He died of a trauma. From a jet ski

And yet the people desperate to advance an agenda all jumped to an erroneous and conspiratorial conclusion tier appears to reveal the lengths some will go to in order to promote a failing narrative.

Maybe we will even start to see studies that ivermectin prevents jet ski deaths and that one need not prevent the trauma because big helmet is suppressing the data.

Yes, he would NOT have died in a Jet Ski accident if he hadn’t had Trump’s evil vaccine. Another victim of the vaccine added to the millions of others. /sarc

We publicly confess our sarcasm with this man’s death (attributing it to Vaccines). That said, can you blame us? We have been lied to every step of this so-called pandemic, from eating bats to Fauci’s involvement, from Covid deaths and VAERS reporting to Hydroxychloroquine will kill us all!?

One thing I will never repent for protecting American Children against tyranny for a virus that is 99.8% survivable

Did the “significant injuries” occur

-before he was ejected from the jet ski
-when he was ejected from the jet ski (and was it a James Bond type ejection seat
- or when he was rescued
???
