So I was talking to my Dad. Apparently when trying to schedule his vaccine appt, the caller said there is "there is no documented proof that the Moderna vaccine works. would you still like to take the vaccine?"

This is the Mississippi Health Department. I& #39;m in disbelief.

@msdh telling people that there is no documented proof that the Moderna vaccine works--when they are calling to get the vaccine is violence.

Is this a thing that other people have had said to them when they signed up for the vaccine?

Update: My Dad called again this morning and was able to get a vaccine appointment!

There was no mention of the documentation on the vaccine at all this time. We are looking into finding out what happened.

Thanks for your concern about this issue.

Update: Some investigative reporting by Nick Judin @nickjudin has helped our family understand what happened yesterday and led to changes in the vaccine phone script.

Thanks for working so hard on this @nickjudin and @msdh https://mississippifreepress.org/10482/msdh-axe ">https://mississippifreepress.org/10482/msd...
