Jeff,

I’ve credentialed (been granted privileges) at many hospitals and one of the things through credentialing is always vax status. As an older millennial when they ask about varicella I say (had the disease) and typically it ends there, although some hospitals want titers (antibody responde to vaccinations or to my chicken pox disease which I had over 30 years ago). So my question would be, since there’s already precedent of these hospitals accepting titers (antibody response) to disease or vaccination, couldn’t there be a lawsuit that for β€˜some reason’ (government money) they’re not following that same logic for covid? Because all the sudden that logic just drops off with Covid and all anyone cares about is that card

"The 2-judge majority found that emergencies justify broad government powers."

Ah, but what if there is no emergency? Hint: there isn't. Do the honorable judges believe that simply declaring an emergency constitutes actually being in one? If heath authorities declared it an emergency that too many kids were missing school due to colds, would that justify "broad government powers"?

Question for Jeff: is DeSantis considering a major revamp of state emergency powers laws, including a restrictive redefinition of "emergency"?
