'Vaccine lettuce' bill passes TN Senate [View all]
A bill that would prohibit vaccines to be put on food has passed the Senate and will be sent to Governor Bill Lee for his signature.
On Thursday, the Tennessee Senate cast the final vote on HB1894, which would add a new definition to the word “drug” in Tennessee Code. HB1894 states drugs are also “food that contains a vaccine or vaccine material.”
The bill was brought in the legislature in response to concerns about scientists putting vaccines in the produce purchased at grocery stores, according to Republicans in the House.
Rep. Scott Cepicky (R-Culleoka) said people at the University of California Riverside (UCR) could “put a vaccine into a head of lettuce.” If they did that, Cepicky said, that would be fine, but the state of Tennessee would treat that vaccine-laden head of lettuce as a drug and not as a food item.
“You would have to get a prescription for that to make sure that we know how much of the lettuce you have to eat based off of your body type so we don’t under-vaccinate you, which leads to the possibility of the efficacy of the drug being compromised, or we overdose you based off how much lettuce is [eaten],” he said during a House committee meeting in February. “All this does is [say] we’re going to classify these types of food sources as pharmaceuticals, so if you want to consume them you would go to your doctor and get a prescription.”
