The Brevard DEC expresses deep concern and disappointment in response to the recent resolution put forth by the Brevard Republican Executive Committee (BREC) seeking to ban Covid-19 vaccines and mRNA technologies in Florida. As responsible citizens and advocates for public health, the Brevard DEC reaffirms its commitment to evidence-based policies and the importance of protecting the health and well-being of our community.

The Brevard DEC firmly believes that public health decisions should be grounded in scientific expertise and data-driven analysis. Banning Covid-19 vaccines and mRNA technologies without credible scientific evidence is irresponsible and endangers our community’s health.

The resolution presented by BREC undermines the tireless efforts of healthcare professionals, scientists, and researchers who have worked diligently to develop safe and effective vaccines to combat the Covid-19 pandemic. Covid-19 vaccines, including those utilizing mRNA technology, have been proven through rigorous clinical trials to be a crucial tool in reducing the spread of the virus, preventing severe illness, and saving lives.

Pamala Castellana, Brevard DEC Chairwoman, said,  “Politicizing public health not only puts lives in danger, it endangers our very democracy. Brevard Democrats are standing up to the increasing calls for more government overreach from the right. Demanding that our state ban the sale of life saving vaccines is irresponsible at best and Brevard Democrats are standing in defense of the free market and home rule.”
