WPTV: “The White House on Friday announced Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has “reversed course” and is now allowing health care providers to order doses of the vaccine for their youngest patients.
“We believe it is critical to allow parents everywhere to have the choice to get their kids vaccinated and have a conversation with their pediatrician or health care provider,” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said in a written statement.
The DeSantis Administration, however, took issue with the White House’s claim that the governor has “reversed course” on the orders, saying it’s “patently false.”
…Earlier this week, Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo said the Sunshine State is not pre-ordering any doses of the COVID-19 vaccine for children under 5, arguing there’s not enough data to support the vaccine for healthy children.”
