So, our governor signed SB 276 late Friday. Finally. I didn't really like health care being between a doctor and patient. I really was hoping for more involvement by government civil servants who will determine health care decisions without ever seeing the patient. I also like forced medical treatments. Everybody knows there's zero risks associated with "catching up" a child with all their shots before the next school year...even if that means administering 50+ vaccines over a few visits during the summer. We know that there are no risks because that's what we were told by the politicians who receive money from the people who make those products. The bill's author even said that the most dangerous ingredient in a vaccine is water. I believe him because, as he said, people drown sometimes in water. This is good. And, I'm proud to be in the state that sets the precedent for things to come in your state. Everybody knows that Californians are smarter than people in all the other states. So, you're welcome for that, too. As the bill's author said - some doctors were writing medical exemptions and actually (gasp) being paid for their work. This in California has recently been labeled "monetizing" and will no longer be tolerated. Everybody agrees that doctors should work for free. The previous version of the bill actually was going to charge these doctors, retroactively, with perjury for writing such exemptions in the past. And, sure...there are medical boards created solely for the purpose of dealing with unscrupulous doctors. But, in this case the boards weren't acting fast enough to prevent the pandemic that was killing everybody (measles? I forget). So, there you have it. You're welcome!
