California university fires medical ethics director amid lawsuit over COVID-19 vaccine mandate

The University of California-Irvine has fired a professor of medical ethics who has been contending that the school’s vaccine mandate is unconstitutional given the science of natural immunity.

In a Friday essay on his Substack, Dr. Aaron Kheriaty, the now-former professor of psychiatry at UC-Irvine School of Medicine and director of the medical ethics program at UCI-Health, bid farewell to the university where he has enjoyed teaching for over a decade.

Kheriaty filed a federal lawsuit in August against the university’s vaccine mandate. The lawsuit failed at the district court level and is appealed to the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. He makes a constitutional claim that the vaccine mandate violates his equal protection as established by the 14th Amendment of the Constitution.

Kheriaty told The Christian Post in a phone interview this week that he caught COVID-19 in July 2020 and recovered soon thereafter. He contends that the immunity he has to the virus is longer lasting and more robust than any immunity conferred by the vaccines. Because he already had the virus, he did not feel it necessary to take the vaccine.

“And yet I’m being unjustly discriminated against because I [have] this form of immunity rather than the form of immunity that is supposedly conferred by the vaccines. With each passing week, the efficacy of these vaccines, particularly against the new variants, becomes more apparent,” Kheriaty said.

“But the university has not revised its policy or changed its approach to COVID mitigation even in the face of mounting and what is now irrefutable evidence that the vaccine efficacy against infection was short-lived, unfortunately. I wish that wasn’t the case, but it’s undeniable now.”

  1. Thousands of American citizens are being discriminated against in all phases of life everyday because they are wise enough not to believe the lies and be injected with toxins. Pure evil is occurring.
