This weekend, Prasad announced he was joining the campaign by Bass and a number of doctors, researchers who are swearing not to take any more vaccines without randomized controlled trials (RCT).

Prasad wrote on his Substack:

“The issue with perpetual COVID-19 boosters is what evidence is needed to justify their push? The answer has to be randomized trials powered for reductions in severe disease, hospitalization and death.

“Yet the FDA seems to be moving in the opposite direction, thinking mouse antibody data is good enough. Now a number of doctors, researchers are swearing: no more boosters till RCT.” bureaucratic red tape.”

In addition to these two bills, Senator Seyarto will also introduce a resolution to recognize August 7, 2023, as Purple Heart Day in California in honor of the many service members and Veterans injured or killed by enemy actions in service to our country.
