I have a molecular biology PhD from Brown University who has been involved in the development of new drugs since 1990. As a result, I am familiar with the SCIENTIFIC literature regarding the safety of vaccines, as well as their effectiveness in saving lives. The current outbreaks of deadly cases of the measles in the United States is testimony to the outcome when vaccines are not given to all unvacinnated individuals. Because I understand the safety and effectiveness of vaccines, I volunteered to receive the new Moderna Covid vaccine in August 2020. I was blinded as to whether I received the vaccine or placebo. Fortunately I, along with 14,999 others received the vaccine, while 15,000 others received placebo. Altogether we proved the vaccine was safe and effective. This saved millions of lives. The proposed Bill would result in unnecessary deaths in NH and I oppose it.
