My letter to the editor re: Resolution 237-09

[Rob Tucker]

I have spoken to the Governor's Office asking for the facts regarding claims that the Governor is contemplating mandatory vaccinations in relation to the H1N1 flu or use of the National Guard to force vaccinations.

The Governor's Office is not aware of any such statement from Governor.

The do refer us all to the Governor's web site:

http://hawaii.gov/gov/swine-flu/

On which the full statements and positions, including the CDC, are available.

I did locate an Oct. 14, 2009 Star-Bulletin article regarding vaccinations and the flu which is located here:

Assume the best and ask questions.
