Gov.-elect Glenn Youngkin on Tuesday created an advisory group to help guide the state's response to COVID-19 amid a record surge in cases and hospitalizations fueled by the omicron variant.
Youngkin will be sworn into office on Saturday and quickly assume responsibility for the state's public health care system, which is under strain due to the ongoing pandemic.
Youngkin's new "Medical Advisory Group" will include several hospital leaders, physicians and public health experts. It will be led by Dr. Marty Makary, a surgical oncologist and professor of surgery at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. Makary is critical of vaccine mandates, except for health care workers; of "excessive" testing and masking policies at colleges and universities; and, booster shots for teens.

I guess the trailer park crowd will now reverse their stance again?
Ah yes.. the Daily Press of Newport News is on its obligatory jihad against Youngkin’s picks.
Going with my wife to the Youngkin team’s inauguration Saturday! I’ll post pics here!
Now if Youngkin would just reconsider his secretary of education nominee I think we could get back on the right track.
How ghastly. Perhaps Youngkin will get the rioting ANTIFA-BLM treatment that was developed to deal with President Trump.
Friend has bone cancer. Oncologist at Cleveland Clinic told her not to get the vaccine.
Strangely, I have a friend that got bone cancer (and a clot) from the jab.
What's ghastly about it?
Perhaps Youngkin will get the rioting ANTIFA-BLM treatment that was developed to deal with President Trump.
What utter nonsense.
Get back to us when the new “leader” is critical of ALL vax mandates. Either you is or you ain’t. Can’t be partially preggers. Can’t be partially vaxxed and partially UNvaxxed. And, you can’t get UNvaxxed once your in. You will henceforth be “GMO”.
:-}
...”Makary is critical of vaccine mandates, except for health care workers;....” not sure how to take this item....mandatory jabs for healthcare workers is one of the two issues before the SCOTUS, I believe...Harmeet Dhillon said last night that the SCOTUS probably WILL decide that that particular mandate is constitutional....but the other issue before the SCOTUS may get their “thumbs down”..will see.....
I do love his CRT pick.... Good man... umm do we know his/her/its/ther/there/ze/sot/dumbass pronoun?
...point well made.....I read earlier in the day here on FreeRub that some hospital system in MN or WI...?..just fired about 700 of its employees who refused the jab(s)....good luck if you get sick in their service area and need medical attention...
The home of the Mayo Clinic is in Rochester, MN. It has 35,000 employees. 5000 doctors.
More than twice those numbers nation wide.
Youngkin’s intention to let local governments make their own call. Arlington is not Shenandoah is not Richmond is not Hampton Roads. And the vax/mask Karens are up in armsn. Funny thing, the new policy is really not all different from the previous one. Its why people from MD and DC come to VA for fun and to get a break.
He was a guest on Bari Weiss' outstanding podcast Honestly making it IMHO her best show ever. It was both illuminating and infuriating as he details everything we're doing wrong in regards to Covid.

Governor-elect Glenn Youngkin knocks this one out of the park!
Virginia is a Dillon Rule jurisdiction. Localities can’t do ANYTHING that the General Assembly doesn’t give them the power to do.
The Governor has zero authority there. The authority flows from the General Assembly.
The trailer park crowd can’t figure why that’s important.
