• Dr. Joseph A. Ladapo, Florida’s Surgeon General, has recommended that males ages 18-39 not take mRNA COVID-19 vaccines because of the risk of severe, potentially fatal, heart problems.
• The Florida Department of Health conducted its own analysis of the mRNA vaccines and found there is an 84 percent increase in the relative incidence of cardiac-related death among males 18-39 years old within 28 days following vaccination.
• The state DOH said that the benefit of vaccination is likely outweighed by this abnormally high risk of cardiac-related death among men in this age group. It added that non-mRNA vaccines didn’t present the same risks of heart disease.
• Ladapo: “Studying the safety and efficacy of any medications, including vaccines, is an important component of public health. Far less attention has been paid to safety and the concerns of many individuals have been dismissed – these are important findings that should be communicated to Floridians.”
