Candidate undermines science-based vaccine policies; reconsider nomination.
To: Sen. Warnock, Sen. Ossoff
From: A verified voter in Athens, GA
November 25
The candidate's stance on vaccines is concerning and goes against scientific consensus. Vaccines are one of the greatest public health achievements, eradicating or controlling numerous devastating diseases. Their safety and efficacy is overwhelmingly supported by extensive research and data. Promoting misinformation about vaccine risks or downplaying their vital role in preventing outbreaks could have grave public health consequences. I urge serious reconsideration of this nomination given the candidate's rejection of established medical facts and potential to undermine sound immunization policies that protect vulnerable populations. We need leaders who will advance pro-science positions grounded in evidence rather than ideological stances that disregard expertise. Public health and lives are at stake.
