He omits the data that says the rates of boosted individuals are identical in typically Republican and historically Democrat areas and doesn\u2019t mention that political affiliation isn\u2019t a box checked by doctors or medical examiners.<\/p><p>Not satisfied with making blanket deathwish statements, he directed his <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/genefortexas\/status\/1696273616063647755?s=46\">ire<\/a> toward a Texan from Ector County, pointing at that area\u2019s COVID death rate. It\u2019s worth noting that Ector County\u2019s population is 44.3% \u201cfully vaccinated\u201d (4% boosted) while Wu\u2019s Harris County is over 65% fully jabbed (11% boosted). Current weekly COVID admissions per 100,000 residents in Harris County is over twice that of Ector\u2019s. Follow the science, Wu.<\/p><p>Wu\u2019s distasteful and repugnant remarks come as the authoritarian class has begun beating the drum for mandated jabs and other draconian measures, all in response to a small uptick in COVID cases in various pockets of the country. He is shameless in his attempt to politicize a virus.<\/p><p>After receiving astounding pushback from medical liberty advocates (of all political parties), Wu <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/GeneforTexas\/status\/1696280277897601045?s=20\">doubled down<\/a> on his revolting take.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"584\" height=\"366\" src=\"https:\/\/texansforvaccinechoice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/image-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13472\" srcset=\"https:\/\/texansforvaccinechoice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/image-1.png 584w, https:\/\/texansforvaccinechoice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/image-1-150x94.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><\/figure><p>Wu, an attorney representing a portion of Harris County, does not countenance data that points to vaccine injuries and deaths that have occurred because of the COVID vaccine. For instance, Pfizer knew giving the vaccine to pregnant mothers created a <a href=\"https:\/\/theleadingreport.com\/2023\/08\/27\/pfizer-aggressively-campaigned-for-pregnant-women-to-get-vaccinated-after-knowing-side-effects\/\">substantial risk<\/a> of miscarriage and that giving the shot to young males increased their likelihood of developing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/coronavirus\/2019-ncov\/vaccines\/safety\/myocarditis.html\">myocarditis<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p><p>These risks underscore the fact that Texans should have the right to make their own decisions when it comes to their vaccine choices, especially after witnessing an astonishing number of reported injuries related to the COVID jabs.<\/p><p>Wu and his ilk are persistent in their pursuit of removing Texans\u2019 right to informed consent and using the power of the state to force Texans to jab up, don masks and lock down.<\/p><p>Regardless of the current COVID conspiracies Wu is trying to push, the fact remains that fully vaccinated <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2021\/06\/25\/covid-breakthrough-cases-cdc-says-more-than-4100-people-have-been-hospitalized-or-died-after-vaccination.html\">people<\/a> still die of the disease.
