The Republican governor has asked the Florida state Supreme Court to impanel a grand jury to investigate potential 'wrongdoing' surrounding COVID-19 vaccines.
He went on to criticize colleges in other states for requiring students to receive booster shots.
DeSantis also took aim at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention during a roundtable discussion in Florida on Tuesday when he announced the grand jury probe. DeSantis had initially touted COVID-19 vaccinations in the spring of 2021. But as the year progressed, he appeared increasingly reluctant to promote the vaccines, instead voicing support for post-infection treatment like monoclonal antibody doses. In January, DeSantisFlorida has banned the use of COVID-19 vaccine passports—making it illegal for businesses or government agencies to ask people for proof that they have received the vaccine. That ban was upheld by an appeals court in October.
