Read our privacy policy A Florida doctor has declared she won’t see anymore patients in person who are not vaccinated against Covid-19, as the state struggles with its most potent coronavirus outbreak yet. “When it comes to the safety of others, when it comes to a global health problem, community health problem, at this point I really say, ‘This is where it draws a line in the sand for me.’” She recently sent out a letter to patients, 10 to 15 per cent of whom she estimates don’t want to get the vaccine, that they would need to get the jab by 15 September to keep seeing her in person. But making vaccination status mandatory could put Dr Marraccini, and others, in the crosshairs of Florida governor Ron DeSantis, who has taken a hardline against public health measures like mask mandates and vaccine requirements. Late in August, a Florida judge held that schools can’t be stopped from issuing masking rules, a ruling which state authorities like the governor’s office have vowed to challenge in higher court.
