Anger follows this Whatcom panel's rejection of an anti-vaccine applicant

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Feb. 1—Anger and accusations dominated a Whatcom County Health Board meeting over the County Council's recent refusal to include a vaccine opponent on the Public Health Advisory Board.

Councilman Todd Donovan abruptly left the meeting Tuesday morning, Jan. 31, after health advisory board Chairman Steve Bennett and other county officials were denounced repeatedly for rejecting the application of anti-vaccine activist Misty Flowers and others at the County Council's Jan. 10 meeting.

Donovan walked out of Tuesday's meeting, where the County Council had convened as the Health Board in a mixed online and in-person format.

At the meeting, council members Tyler Byrd and Kathy Kershner criticized Bennett and the health advisory board for ignoring community members who disagreed with Whatcom County's response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

1. I don't care if they 'disagree' with the science.

You can disagree all you want, but you'd better have convincing authentically medical evidence to back up your disagreement. Otherwise, you're just pissing in the wind. And I'm fine with that, as long as the piss doesn't get on anyone but you.

3. I demand that my witchdoctor, leech seller, and whiskey-and-pliers-dentist be on the board too. nt

4. A Board of Health containing

members who don't believe in science? Nothing would get done. Let them pursue legal avenues to get their points across.
