Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo warns Americans NOT to take latest COVID booster and claims there are 'red flags' over its safety

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis' hand-picked surgeon general has warned against getting the new COVID-19 booster vaccine that is expected to receive approval in the coming days.

The state's Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo made the claims at a press conference on Thursday, saying there was no evidence to support getting the shot and that there are 'red flags' about its safety.

The updated shots, which target an Omicron subvariant named XBB.1.5, are awaiting FDA approval on standards for safety, effectiveness and quality, and must then receive CDC sign-off, which could come as early as Tuesday.

'Listen inside to what makes sense, what feels right, you know, what feels like truth,' said Lapado, offering his advice on receiving the shots.

'We all know it when we feel it inside.' Lapado went on to claim global studies showed people who had the boosters were more likely to catch COVID itself.

DeSantis joined Lapado at the event and did not offer a specific opinion on the booster, but slammed federal regulators at the FDA and CDC as corrupt, claiming they 'have basically become an arm of Big Pharma.'

Spokespersons for the FDA and CDC did not immediately respond to requests for comment from DailyMail.com on Saturday.

Ladapo's previous warnings against older versions of the COVID-19 vaccines drew a harsh rebuke from the two agencies in March, when they published an open letter accusing him of 'fueling vaccine hesitancy'.

'Based on available information for the COVID-19 vaccines that are authorized or approved in the United States, the known and potential benefits of these vaccines clearly outweigh their known and potential risks,' the letter said.

'It is the job of public health officials around the country to protect the lives of the populations they serve, particularly the vulnerable. Fueling vaccine hesitancy undermines this effort,'...

Unless the consultation with your doctor goes about the same as the need for open heart surgery, just ignore that booster (5?) exists. Every study says if you already had covid and it did not put you on your back for weeks, you have natural immunity and might get it again as the sniffles. After all it is just another cold virus.

Yes...exactly.

And, exactly what NUMEROUS folks, here, have explained, over the past two years, much to the chagrin of the FRoctors/$hot $hills.

Watch out for the new RSV ‘vaccine’. A friend, who unfortunately takes every jab recommended by the white coats without a second thought, rushed to get the RSV jab. Two days later, she was in the ER, then admitted, with serious breathing issues. The diagnosis was RSV. Even she is thinking it is a vax reaction. She is home, but her O2 sats are still all over the place & she has severe coughing spells.

Why be simply dead when you can be dead-dead?

Tell your friend to hang in there. There will be a new shot come Tuesday. It’ll fix her right up.

I’m sure that’s ‘the plan’ :-(

She’s had cancer sone years ago so any day now, I would not be surprised if she has a recurrence, possibly the ‘turbo’ variety.

He would be a great pick for the surgeon general in any Republican administration

Is this the stuff that was ‘tested’ with a ‘control’ group that was compromised by being given real ‘clot shots’ instead of placebos? In other words, their ‘effectiveness’ against the placebo group’s is a lie.

"Florida Governor Ron DeSantis' hand-picked surgeon general..."
Another example of our Governor working to protect us in the face of those that want us dead.
