      Harris County *fired* Dr. Dr. Hasan Gokal for what appears to be the crime of going above and beyond in trying to make sure no vaccines were wasted AND THEN the attorney general tried to prosecute him for theft! If the below is what happened, he should be thanked, not prosecuted.https://twitter.com/Mike_Hixenbaugh/status/1353777059433238529 …

      Remember that Houston doctor charged with stealing COVID vaccines? Check out the narrative of his alleged crime👇 What is it about the pandemic that’s made people toss common sense in exchange for legalism? See this, @zeynep? @zachdespart story here: https://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-texas/houston/article/Harris-County-judge-blasts-Ogg-for-charging-doc-15896405.php?utm_campaign=CMS%20Sharing%20Tools%20(Premium)&utm_source=t.co&utm_medium=referral … pic.twitter.com/JU5iJDQ0Kr

      Read the enraging update to this story. The doctor went above and beyond duty to make sure vaccine weren't wasted, tried every official avenue, ended up driving all over the place PLUS he got fired and charged (dismissed) and all the rest. Shameful.https://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/10/us/houston-doctor-fired-covid-vaccine.html …

          That's a nice thought, but not reflective of reality. The truth, which we are all understandably hesitant to accept, is that this is pretty typical of the US. This is who this country is.

          The doctor should be reinstated and promoted to running the county's vaccination program.

          In TX he’s probably qualified to run the whole state public health infrastructure.

          If you wield the hammer of the American justice system, you see all of us as nails. And if you’re not white, you’re a much bigger nail.
