综合《华盛顿邮报》、CNN等美媒报道,当地时间9月1日,在美国佛罗里达州萨拉索塔县学区,上百名反对口罩令的家长,为了让孩子能不戴口罩上学,找到当地一名不具医疗资格的脊柱推拿师(chiropractor),为自己的孩子开具“免戴口罩”医疗证明↓

有家长在采访中说, “我觉得一天戴八个小时的口罩,太荒谬了”,还夸赞起该推拿师的热心,称“很多医生都拒绝出具这样的证明,只有这位医生真的愿意花时间、免费给大家签这些证明。”



More than a hundred parents lined up outside the powder-blue Twin Palms Plaza strip mall in Sarasota County, Fla., on Sep 1, waiting for a chiropractor to sign forms freeing their children from school mask requirements. Many waited for hours.

"I think it's great because many doctors are refusing to sign it, and this is one doctor that is actually volunteering his time with no pay to sign all of these forms," one parent told CNN affiliate WFLA. "I think it's ridiculous to have to wear a mask for eight hours a day."

不过,也有家长表示反对。一位女儿在当地上幼儿园的家长认为,这位推拿师的行为极其不负责,将很多人的生命置于危险之中

Meanwhile, another parent whose daughter is in kindergarten in Sarasota County, believes Busch's behavior puts many people at risk, she told CNN.

据报道,目前这名叫丹·布施(Dan Busch)的脊柱推拿师,已为该学区500多名学生开具了“免戴口罩”证明。

然而,当在采访中被问到这样做是出于什么动机时,布施表示:“我不是因为什么政治原因。我不反对口罩,也不反对疫苗,但我支持自由和个人选择。” 



当记者问布施在签署“免戴口罩”医疗证明前,是否检查过每一个孩子时,布施说,“这跟我没关系。我这么做是为了家长的自由。

“This is not a political thing,” Dan Busch, a chiropractor at Twin Palms Chiropractic, told WFLA. “I am not an anti-mask person or an anti-vax person, but I am a pro-freedom, pro-choice person.”

Asked a day later by CNN about the exemption forms and whether he had examined every child for whom he signed one, Busch said, "This wasn't about me. This is about parents' freedom."

据CNN报道,萨拉索塔县学区教育委员会在八月投票决定,对学生、员工、访客和供应商实施为期90天的强制性口罩政策,但出于医疗原因或戴口罩与学生的个性化教育计划不相符的情况除外。

The Sarasota County School Board had voted in August to implement a 90-day mandatory mask policy for students, employees, visitors and vendors, with exceptions for medical reasons or if wearing a face mask would not be consistent with a student's Individualized Education Plan.

在丹·布施出具了数百份所谓“医疗证明”后,该学区更新了口罩令的豁免政策。目前,只接受执业医生(licensed medical doctors,)、骨科医生(osteopathic physicians)或执业高级护士(advanced registered nurse practitioners)开具的“免戴口罩”证明。而脊椎推拿师(chiropractor)不具备医疗资格。

Busch reportedly signed more than 500 exemption forms before the school district’s superintendent updated the requirements, telling parents recently that an acceptable exemption could be approved only by a licensed medical doctor, osteopathic physician or nurse practitioner. Chiropractors are not medical doctors.

根据美国疾控中心的防疫指南,佛州萨拉索塔县属于新冠疫情高风险地区,人们即便已经打完疫苗,在室内也应该佩戴口罩

Sarasota County has a high level of Covid-19 transmission, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention People living in areas with "substantial" or "high" rates of transmission should wear masks indoors, even if vaccinated, CDC guidance says.
