On Oct. 23, Dr. John Tribble, the only physician on the board of Southwest District Health, invited doctors who have faced scrutiny during the onset of the pandemic for "spreading vaccine misinformation."
Among the virtual presenters were Dr. Peter McCullough, a Texas cardiologist whose medical certification faced jeopardy from the American Board of Internal Medicine in 2022 due to his criticisms of how the COVID-19 vaccines were tested; Dr. Renata Moon, a pediatrician who filed a lawsuit over free speech issues following her contract non-renewal at Washington State University; and Dr. James Thorp, an obstetrician-gynecologist involved in a documentary which has been criticized for promoting so-called "conspiracy theories" about the vaccines.

Meanwhile, Idaho pathologist Dr. Ryan Cole joined in person and presented against the vaccine's availability in health district facilities, alongside virtual testimonies from the aforementioned out-of-state doctors.
After hearing from more than 300 residents who voiced opposition to the vaccines being distributed in health district offices, the board voted 4-3 in favor of halting COVID-19 vaccinations. The board members who voted to stop administering the vaccine at health district offices included Tribble, the physician representative of the board; Viki Purdy, executive council representative from Adams County; Zach Brooks, commissioner from Canyon County; and Bill Butticci, commissioner from Gem County. On the other hand, the opposed were Jennifer Riebe, commissioner from Payette County, Board Chair Kelly Aberasturi, commissioner from Owyhee County; and Board Vice-Chair Lyndon Haines from Washington County.
This decision affects residents in six counties: Adams, Canyon, Gem, Owyhee, Payette and Washington. However, the board clarified that residents of the affected counties can still access COVID-19 vaccines at local pharmacies and private healthcare clinics.
Tribble: COVID-19 vaccines not proven to be safe
The decision drew mixed reactions from its members. Board Chair Kelly Aberasturi questioned the authority of the board to prevent doctors from referring patients to the district for vaccination.
Tribble explained that the COVID-19 vaccines had not been proven to be safe. He argued that it was their responsibility to act in the interest of public trust, especially when residents "show up at the door, trusting us, and we continue to break that trust by saying, tacitly or otherwise, that these things, there's no risk from these."
Tribble further clarified that the decision was not about denying residents "access" to the vaccines, which remain easily accessible elsewhere, but rather about withdrawing the board's endorsement of them as unequivocally safe and effective.
"If we continue to offer this, we are giving a tacit endorsement of these shots when we should not be. We are here to protect the public," Tribble said.
