MADISON, Wis. (AP) â Republican Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin plans to hold a news conference bringing together people who claim to have had adverse reactions to the coronavirus vaccine.
Johnson, who has no medical training or expertise, has been criticized by doctors and others for spreading misinformation about the coronavirus vaccine.
Dr. Jeff Huebner, a family doctor in Madison, said Johnson was âpromoting dangerous and unfounded claims about COVID-19 vaccinesâ that contradict medical data and evidence.
âAs a member of the Wisconsin medical community Iâm gravely concerned about the impact his event and remarks will have on our ability to return to normal and protect Wisconsinites from COVID-19.,â Huebner said in a statement.
State data shows vaccine demand continues to decline in Wisconsin. The average amount of daily doses administered is now the lowest it’s been in four months.
