A bill that would ban the use of mRNA vaccines, including for Covid-19, is on its way to the House floor after passing out of committee in a party-line vote Wednesday.
Sponsored by Rep. Greg Kmetz, R-Miles City, and co-sponsored by Northwest Montana Reps. Tracy Sharp, R-Polson, and Lukas Schubert, R-Kalispell, House Bill 371 would prohibit administering vaccines developed with mRNA, or messenger ribonucleic acid, technology on humans. The bill deems the technology, which was employed to create the Covid-19 vaccines, a hazard.
If you can, get a booster now. These motherfuckers will kill you for political gain.
Edit: Just to be clear, this is a state bill. But if they succeed at the state level, they’ll move on to the national.
Vaccination rates are already quite low in Montana (30% got covid boosters) , and it’s hard to know just how many infections there have been because medical care is not very accessible in most of the state. The nyt reported one of every 289 Montana residents had died of covid by 2023.
