In a move reflecting increasing skepticism towards COVID-19 vaccines, an Idaho health district voted to ban public clinics from administering the vaccine. The decision followed a presentation by pathologist Ryan Cole, who controversially described the vaccines as 'experimental gene therapy' with 'all risk, zero benefit,' despite overwhelming medical consensus on their safety and efficacy. Cole's medical license was previously restricted by the Washington state medical board for making false statements about the vaccine, yet his objections influenced the regional health board’s decision, signaling a troubling trend as pandemic fears subside.
Nevertheless, the regional health board in Idaho voted 4-3 that October afternoon to prohibit the district's four public health clinics from distributing the coronavirus vaccine.
Ryan Cole, a pathologist, called the vaccines 'experimental gene therapy' and 'all risk, zero benefit,' falsely describing the shots that helped the country recover from a pandemic.
