CDC: Coronavirus Vaccine Will Be Ready for Refusal By Anti-Vaxxers By 2021 - MedPage Today

Disclaimer: This post is from GomerBlog, a satirical site about healthcare.

CDC officials announced Tuesday that they believe the new vaccine currently under development aimed at controlling the rapidly spreading SARS-CoV-2 virus -- responsible for causing COVID-19 -- will be approved and ready to be utterly rejected by those in the anti-vaccination (anti-vax) movement by next year.

"This is an exciting development," said Eric Polsky, director of the CDC's Novel Vaccination Program, "and we will work tirelessly to ensure all anti-vaxxers have the opportunity to decline, refuse, and reject this potentially life-saving vaccine as early as possible."

The announcement has many in the anti-vaccination movement excited, including a local woman present at the press conference, who noted, "I just get such a thrill from ignoring mountains of scientific evidence at the danger of threatening the world around me, and the chance to do that by yet again opting out of a critical vaccine is just delightful."

At press time, officials noted conspiracy theories about the not-yet-developed vaccine containing mercury were spreading on Twitter.

advanced primary care of the ozarks :: Article Creator Integrating Rx With Advanced Primary Care Will Unlock Better Health America's healthcare industry has been squeezed tightly over the past few years with post-pandemic fallout, a declining economy and high consumer expectations. Retail pharmacies are no exception, and it's clear that the traditional pharmacy model is in crisis. With rising costs for medications and supplies and changing consumer retail habits, this doesn't bode well for the brick-and-mortar community pharmacy. Simply put: the traditional pharmacy model is unsustainable. We will soon see a rash of closing retail pharmacies and consumers scrambling to fill needed prescriptions affordably. You might be asking yourself why this should matter to you as HR and benefit professionals. I serve as chief human resources officer for a company that works with many large employers concerned about healthcare costs and the de...
