  Speaker 3: and parental rights being restored in Florida. The left and
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: the media losing their minds, including many doctors who are
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: furious that the state there is getting rid of vaccine mandates,
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: including for your kids to go to school. So why
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: are they so angry? We'll explain it and many of
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: the thoughts that I had about this. I got to

  Speaker 3: need to give your money to the woke liberal coffee

  Speaker 3: brands that are out there, because my good friends, that's
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: part of the reason why they start this company. They
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: are sick and tired of giving their money to companies

• 2:56
  Speaker 3: it's the forty seven Morning Update, and it starts right now.
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: Story number one.
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: Cause and effect is something that happens all the time. Well,
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: there was a major cause and effect when it came
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: to COVID nineteen and the lies that were told to
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: the American people about that vaccine and so many of
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: the regulations and rules that put us in a lockdown
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: for far too long. What happened, There's a lot of
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: people now asking more questions than ever about the CDC
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: and not trusting the CDC, not trusting them on vaccines.
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: It also brought up an even bigger point, should the
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: government be able to mandate what vaccines you have to
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: have for your kids? Well, Florida, they said they believe
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: that parents should have the rights over their children, not
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: the federal government when it comes to vaccines. Let me
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: be clear about what happened in Florida. It is not
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: in Florida, and this is very important, a ban on vaccines.
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: What Florida has now done is said parents could decide,
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: not the government, and that brings us to the big headline.
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: Liberals are losing their minds because they want the government
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: to be able to dictate to you what you have
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: to do for your children. Florida now we know plans
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: to eliminate all vaccine mandates, including those required for children
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: attending public schools. The announcement came from the Surgeon General
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: of Florida and was made during a press conference alongside
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: Governor Ron De Santis. Now, the Surgeon General describe the
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: mandates as oppressive and even liken them to slavery and
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: frame the repeal as a matter of printal choice, bodily autonomy,
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: and medical freedom. Florida, by the way, would become the
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: first US state to withdraw mandatory vaccination requirements entirely, marking
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: a significant shift from decades of public health policy. Now,
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: while the Department of Health can rescind mannate it issued administratively,
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: any vaccine requirements established by laws, such as those for polio,
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: measles and mumps, you know intentanus for example, will require
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: legislative action to quote unquote repeal. Well, the liberals their
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: minds exploded over this, as well as many in the
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: medical field. The American Medical Associations say that the repeal
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: would quote undermined decades of public health progress and dramatically
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: increase the risk of serious illness. Well, guess what if
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: you guys at the CDC and in the medical community
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: wouldn't have lied about the COVID vaccine and its effectiveness,
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: or the spread or masking or staying six feet a partners,
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: shutting down the schools, or any of the issues you
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: lied to us about with COVID, then we might actually
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: believe you on issues moving forward. But the reality is
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: Americans don't infectious disease leaders also came out warning of
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: likely outbreaks preventable diseases like measles and polio, especially in
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: schools and vulnerable populations. Florida Democrats echoed these concerns, with
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: Senator Jones calling it a quote grave public health risk.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: Another state senator in emphasized disease like polio could return
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: and that would be horrific for Florida. Now, I went
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: on CNN Newsnight with Abby Phillips. It was the lead story,
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: and I want you to hear how the media is
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: now attacking Donald Trump for this, saying that he's going
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: to have kids die because of a popsey. It's been
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: acted in Florida. Yes, they want to fearmonger you and
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: control you. Yet again, listen carefully.
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: Joining the conversation for this one is doctor Chris Parnell.
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: She's the director of the NAACP Center for Health Equity
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: and Public Health and Preventative Medicine. Physician and doctor Parnell,
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: you know this well. In twenty twenty, we had thirteen
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: cases of measles twenty twenty five, fourteen hundred, a huge
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: increase in whooping cough whooping cough in this country, and
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: at the same time, the rates of vaccine exemptions have
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: gone up by about a point since twenty nineteen. None
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: of this is by accident, none of this is by osmosis.
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: And now this in Florida reckless.
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: If I could summon up in one word, let's just
• 7:23
  Speaker 5: go to some facts, and I have them here to
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: keep myself honest. Since the last thirty years, we've saved
• 7:30
  Speaker 5: over one hundred and fifty million lives because of vaccines globally.
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: If we begin to think about in the United States,
• 7:38
  Speaker 5: we've saved over one point one million children due to
• 7:42
  Speaker 5: vaccination since nineteen ninety four. We've prevented five hundred and
• 7:47
  Speaker 5: eight million illnesses in thirty two million hospitalizations. That's not
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: anything to wink at. That's hardcore data. But what's happening
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: in the United States is as if we are a
• 8:00
  Speaker 5: runaway train. In public health, we talk about the cliff
• 8:04
  Speaker 5: of good health, and we have fallen completely off of
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: the cliff.
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: That's kind of what it feels like that in a way,
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: Ben that everybody sitting at this table, all the folks
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: in Florida, all of these people who are vaccine skeptics
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: now have benefited from vaccines allowing them to live their
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: lives without polio, without measles, and now all of a
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: sudden they want to pull the rug out from underneath children.
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: That I'm surprised by it. I mean, you have kids,
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: A lot of us do at this table, if you
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: lived in Florida.
• 8:35
  Speaker 6: What two things they're not outlawed. That's good. The parents
• 8:39
  Speaker 6: are going to decide too.
• 8:41
  Speaker 7: There's a cause and effect.
• 8:41
  Speaker 6: And the CDC lied to us about COVID and they
• 8:44
  Speaker 6: lied a lot. They lied about masks in school, they
• 8:47
  Speaker 6: lied about distancing, They lied about the efficiency or the
• 8:50
  Speaker 6: effectiveness of the COVID nineteen vaccine.
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: That's true.
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: It is true.
• 8:55
  Speaker 6: I said that distancing, did they did?
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: They not lie about.
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: The effective it?
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: Yes, if you talk about mass if we're looking at
• 9:06
  Speaker 5: high quality masks, If we're looking at high quality masks, right,
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: so I would those mass absolutely permit infections because this
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: is the way science works. Science works as you get data,
• 9:19
  Speaker 5: the type of communication that you give, you can't say.
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: You can't.
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: I think I actually think it's important. It's very if
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: you're saying things that are doing the accurate. I do
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: think it's fair for her to count.
• 9:34
  Speaker 7: She said that masking was effective and work when they
• 9:36
  Speaker 7: knew internal documents said, it came out that it didn't work.
• 9:40
  Speaker 6: Okay, well, what does distance said?
• 9:44
  Speaker 5: Misinformation and you're seeing in it at.
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: Are you going to are you gonna are you going
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: to have a conversation? Are you just going to keep talking? Look?
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: Hold on?
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: Okay. First of all, what she is disputing is youranguage
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: around this, which is that they lied exactly, which she's saying.
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: I think she's right about this is not true. There
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: are certain types of mass that work better than others science.
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: I mean, this is this is one.
• 10:15
  Speaker 7: Florida did this. Let's just what you guys don't understand
• 10:17
  Speaker 7: that there's a cause and effect that American people don't
• 10:20
  Speaker 7: trust this for the reasons I said.
• 10:23
  Speaker 6: You may not like that, you may not like the.
• 10:24
  Speaker 4: Americans don't trust the CDC because RFK Junior and I.
• 10:31
  Speaker 6: Got the job because people.
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: Hold on a second, okay, man, just give me one second. Okay,
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: this this Florida Surgeon General has been railing against vaccines
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: for a while, but he's also responsible for a lot
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: of misinformation. He's altered key findings in a COVID nineteen
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: vaccine safety study. Practice he pushed things like cures like
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: ivermectin and others for.
• 10:57
  Speaker 6: Not work.
• 10:58
  Speaker 7: Now I have doubt that shows that did work.
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: No, he is pushing affect Okay, Ben, are you really
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: going to argue with the doctor during.
• 11:13
  Speaker 7: COVID You guys screwed us and we failed miserably a vaccine.
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: Isn't it amazing how they're so angry that you have
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: parents that are going to have the right to make
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: a decision for their children what is best for them.
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: They cannot stand that the government can't dictate to the people,
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: at least in Florida, on the issue of vaccines. They
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: cannot stand to admit that the reason why this happened,
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: the reason why RFK Juniors and the government is because
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: the cause of effect of the CDC lying pathologically to
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: the American people every step of the way on the
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: issue of COVID nineteen, the effectiveness of vaccines and masking
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: and all the other things that I just mentioned. And
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: they're mad that this is happening in Florida. Now, look,
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: I think the people in Florida should be trusted. I
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: think the people in Florida should have the right to
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: do what's best for their children. And if the doctors
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: are angry that they say the science is overwhelming, that
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: these vaccine mandates should be a thing, Well, then they
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: should actually talk to their patience about it with compassion
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: and understanding instead of the arrogance that you just heard
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: right there from that doctor, condescending and frustrated of anybody
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: that would ever question her. As a quote doctor. You
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: heard it, and it's amazing that we're still even having
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: the conversation after.
• 12:40
  Speaker 6: What we witness during COVID.
