Story
Southwest Idaho Health Board Removes COVID-19 Vaccines, First in U.S. After 4-3 Vote
Nov 1, 2024, 05:54 PM
The Southwest Idaho Health Board has voted to remove COVID-19 vaccines from its clinics, marking the first instance in the United States where a health department has been restricted from providing these vaccines. The decision, passed by a narrow 4-3 vote, affects 30 locations where the Southwest District Health provides healthcare services, including Canyon and five other counties. The board cited safety concerns as the primary reason for the removal. This move defies recommendations from the CDC and FDA, which continue to endorse the safety and efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines.
