Tucker Carlson finally came clean about his coronavirus vaccine status: He has none.
The Fox News star bragged to an evangelical audience that he had not gotten any of the vaccines. Until now, he had been cagey.
“I skipped the first three, I’m not getting that one either,” Carlson told an applauding crowd at Awaken Church, according to Voice of San Diego, he said, mocking the notion of a third shot, let alone anything leading up to it.
“I’ve had like a million of them,” he said of vaccines in general, but added that he did not trust the COVID vaccine. Over the years he has invoked his privacy rights to shield himself from talking about his vaccine status.
Speaking of proponents of vaccines, Carlson said, “I look at these people, like, this just does not make sense at all. And I have no idea what’s up here, but whatever you’re telling me it’s just not true.”
Awaken Church has itself refused to adhere to COVID-19 prevention measures, according to Voice of San Diego, despite multiple coronavirus outbreaks in its congregation’s own ranks.
Carlson started his anti-vaccine spiel soon after vaccinations became available.
“So, how are the rest of us supposed to respond to a marketing campaign like this? Well, nervously,” Carlson said on his show in December 2020. “Even if you’re strongly supportive of vaccines, and we are, even if you recognize how many millions of lives have been saved over the past 50 years by vaccines, and we do, it all seems a bit much. It feels false, because it is. It’s too slick.”
Good for him for digging in and using common sense. FN is controlled opposition, but at least they're occasionally truthful
