The Florida surgeon general, Dr. Joseph Ladapo, on June 29 accused the office of Rep. James Clyburn (D-S.C.), the chairman of the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis, of having issued misleading statements about various matters related to Florida’s attitude and actions toward COVID-19 vaccines for children under 5.

Florida is the only state that did not join a preordering system for COVID-19 vaccines for children under 5 that President Joe Biden’s administration opened in early June, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre noted on June 16.
