My Body, My Choice… Except For Mandated Vaccines? Dr. Joseph Ladapo Fights For Health Freedom In Florida + MN Governor Candidate Dr. Scott Jensen & Jay Pea – Ask Dr. Drew – Ep 548
01 Nov 2025
“I couldn’t agree with Dr. Drew more!” writes FL Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo. “Many countries don’t have vaccine mandates at all, but through education achieve comparable vaccination rates.” Dr. Ladapo is pushing to end all vaccine mandates for children, calling them unethical and a violation of parents’ rights. In an interview with BlazeTV’s Sara Gonzales, Ladapo argued that the government should not control what goes into a person’s body, describing the issue as both moral and constitutional. He says the state’s goal is to restore parents’ freedom to make medical decisions for their children. Dr. Joseph A. Ladapo is the Surgeon General of Florida and Professor of Medicine at the University of Florida. His research focuses on behavioral economic strategies to reduce cardiovascular risk among disadvantaged populations and has been supported by the NIH and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. He is a Harvard-trained physician and health policy expert.
