A social media campaign calling on candidates in races across the country to pledge their support for pulling the COVID-19 vaccine off the market is gaining momentum, as the influence of pharmaceutical companies on elected officials continues to be a hot-button issue for candidates vying for political office.

Dr. Mary Talley Bowden, a practitioner in Texas and founder of Coalition of Health Freedom, began the movement last month in a Dec. 17 post on X, formerly Twitter, where she called on public officials and candidates in races across the country to make clear their positions on the controversial vaccines public.
