The Tennessee Conservative [By Jason Vaughn] –
Lookout Valley Elementary in Chattanooga has signs posted in the halls promoting getting the COVID-19 vaccine using imagery associated with the LGBTQ community, according to our source.
The text on the signs states, “Research has shown the COVID-19 vaccines are safe and effective (underlined for emphasis). Getting vaccinated will help protect you from becoming ill from the pandemic virus.”
Equally troubling to many Conservatives and parents is the inclusion of LGBTQ imagery in the sign, especially considering it will mostly be viewed by impressionable elementary school age children.
Our source states, “LGBTQ promotional imagery is being weaved into medial dystopian propaganda in Lookout Valley Elementary. I saw this plastered in the halls. Two things… Should they be hawking unnecessary and dangerous pharmaceuticals (without any side effect warnings) to children who don’t even have the power of consent? The other thing is, why weave in LGBTQ visual messaging?”
The signage appears to have originated from The Tennessee Department of Health with references to their COVID-19 vaccine website, covid19.tn.gov, and it also has the TN logo at the top right corner.
Last year, The Tennessee Department of Health was caught up in a controversy surrounding the marketing of the COVID-19 vaccine to children and was asked by state legislators to “stop marketing to minors.”
Senator Kerry Roberts (R-Springfield-District 23) said, “To be clear, the Tennessee Department of Health was not asked to stop vaccinating children nor have they stopped vaccinating children for COVID-19 or any other disease. Rather, they were asked to stop vaccinating children for COVID-19 without parental consent and stop marketing to minors.”
The Department of Health appeared to comply with the request for a time until May of 2022 when they posted on their Facebook page, “CDC recommends all children ages 5-11 receive a booster vaccine 5 months after completing their primary series. Immunocompromised children 5-11 should receive a booster 3 months after their primary series.”
While the signage at Lookout Valley Elementary doesn’t appear to be geared specifically for children, it is nonetheless being displayed for viewing by 295 plus children in grades K-5.

This should be stopped now and ALL those involved should be Fired.
When the Republican supermajority refuses to take action against unconstitutional executive orders emanating from their own party, they call a special session to give away tax money to Ford and Lockdown Lee rewards the mask nazis at DOH with an extra $5.5M, what was the expected result? The DOH wouldn’t discipline Deborah Birx for practicing medicine without a medical license (in any state, let alone TN), they directly disobey orders from legislature, they market gene therapy that is known to damage hearts and known not to work as a preventive…looks like the DOH problem is a lot deeper than just dog-muzzle Fiscal. How many TN Republicans are captured by the Pfizer contingent?
