Evil Duke University Hospital treatment denial cited in legislation from Rand Paul and NC Rep Dan Bishop, COVID-19 Vaccination Non-Discrimination Act
From Senator Rand Paul.
“Today, U.S. Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) introduced the COVID-19 Vaccination Non-Discrimination Act to ensure that federal taxpayer dollars are not used to support health care facilities that deny care to patients based on their COVID-19 vaccination status.
Representative Dan Bishop (R-NC-8) introduced companion legislation in the U.S. House of Representatives.
“No American should be denied access to critical care based on a personal medical decision, yet tragically, many hospitals and other medical facilities continue to discriminate against those unvaccinated for COVID-19,” said Dr. Paul. The COVID-19 Vaccination Non-Discrimination Act will protect the rights of vulnerable patients to make their own health care choices and ensure that federal taxpayer dollars do not support facilities that turn away patients based on their COVID-19 vaccination status.”
“There’s no reason that medical facilities should deny care to people based on their COVID-19 vaccination status, and there’s certainly no reason for institutions that do so to receive any federal funding. Unfortunately, this is happening far too often, including in my home state of North Carolina. The COVID-19 Vaccination Non-Discrimination Act will remedy that injustice, and affirms that people have the right to make their own medical decisions,” said Rep. Bishop.”
“Background:
The American Medical Association (AMA) has urged physicians to refrain from denying care to patients based on vaccination status. Yet cases of individual transplant centers denying organ transplants to unvaccinated patients have emerged across the country. Recently, a 14-year-old girl who had recovered from a prior COVID-19 infection and thus had natural immunity, was refused a kidney transplant by Duke University Hospital because her parents had chosen not to have her vaccinated.”
More evil.
“Duke University has a history of receiving funding from industries producing products that are harmful to humans.
Cigarettes that kill adults and Covid19 vaccines that also kill children.
I just heard from a Duke study participant that it is still ongoing.
Duke study.
“Dr. Michael Smith is a Professor of Pediatrics and one of the lead investigators of the ongoing COVID vaccine trials at Duke. Clinics across the nation began Phase 1 clinical trials of the vaccine in 5 to 11-year-olds in March.
Smith said, while the COVID-19 vaccine is safe and effective for all people, these Phase 1 trials involved lowering the dose to create less adverse side effects while still producing an adequate antibody response in kids.
“The initial adult trials used a dose of spike protein mRNA, which is the antigen in the vaccine, that was pretty high,” Smith said. “And you need to do that because, remember early on in the pandemic, the people that were getting really sick and dying from COVID were the elderly who have a weaker immune system. So similar to other vaccines that we give folks above 65, there was a lot of antigen in there.”
Smith said the vaccine for kids under 12 will have a lower dose of these antigens. Following those initial Phase 1 trials in March, Duke, alongside 100 other sites across the U.S., is now verifying and observing the side effects and efficacy of the new dose.
Pfizer plans to enroll 4,500 kids in its vaccine study, 100 of which are already enrolled at Duke.”
