Anti-life

People rely on the rMNA vaccines developed for Covid 19. Both Moderna and Pfizer clinics produce these vaccines. These vaccines were originally developed under the Trump era in 2020. They are safe and effective for treating Covid viruses that killed over one million people. Myself and several older citizens rely on these vaccines to prevent death. Also, many with cancer, use treatments based on rMNA. 

Now, Amy Reiger and Braxton Mitchell want to BAN any vaccines or other medicine with mRNA. Both are young; have no co-morbidies, and apparently care less about the senior citizens of the Flathead. They listen to some doctor, who has not been credited in her comments, from Miles City to decide all the seniors in Montana can die. They want to remove our choice to get a vaccine that helps extend our lives; not shorten it. They both claim to be pro-life until it comes to us in need of certain medicines and vaccines, then they are anti-life. Even the chief medical officer of Montana is opposed to their bill. 

Should I thank you Amy and Braxton for their blatant disregard for myself, and any one over the age of 60? No, you are not protecting me or any other older person; instead, with your anti-science, anti-vac stance, your bill, if passed, will totally eliminate my health care choices! Smacks of totalitarianism! We do not need demagogues trying to climb the MAGA ladder to send us off to the morgue. Please call these two egotists and tell them you want the choice to live in Montana; if they want to practice killing people they can move to Russia and pass their bills in the Duma. 

If the two of you are so hell bent on “fixing” our lives, try reducing our property taxes instead of shortening our lives. Also, remember Braxton and Amy’s willingness to end our lives prematurely when next election cycle comes around.
