Louisiana’s attorney general is scrutinizing some colleges’ vaccine policies to ensure they don’t coerce students who object to getting the shot, even as concerns rise about the spread of the Delta variant and the resulting spike in COVID-19 cases around the state.
The Attorney General’s Office has emphasized that the COVID-19 vaccines have been approved for only emergency use and that Louisianans have a right not to get the vaccine since the Food and Drug Administration has yet to grant the vaccines full approval.
In the case of Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine (VCOM) in Monroe, Attorney General Jeff Landry said that even though VCOM’s vaccine policy had been revised, it does not comply with state law. Three VCOM students have alleged that they have faced coercion over their religious objections to getting the vaccine.

The endgame of the sprawling mass of opioid lawsuits is starting to come into focus: Already, a settlement with Johnson & Johnson and three major drug distributors will pour billions of dollars into communities to combat the addiction crisis, with more to come.
But what that looks like, exactly, will vary from place to place. States are likely to see lump sums of money doled out for years, and they will be left to decide how to spend it under the guideposts set up in the settlements. It could easily become subject to competing interests: Legislatures could squabble with governors over priorities, while in some places, counties could demand more autonomy. Some public health experts are also raising questions about the quality of addiction programs to which states could allocate funding.
