You would think that in everything that happens in the U.S., mainstream media—including sports newsrooms—will have more urgent things to write about, not involving Follow trolling Aaron Rodgers’ previous comments on the coronavirus vaccine Test positive For COVID. But they went there, Hyperventilation In the story and why all of this is important, and hope you do the same.
The problem is what Rogers said a few months ago when he was asked if he had been vaccinated against the coronavirus.his reply?
“Yes, I have been vaccinated,” Rogers said at a press conference with the Packers media. “Some people in the team are not vaccinated. I think this is a personal decision, and I won’t judge those people.”
When various media reported the story at the time, they made it up as if Rogers said he was fully vaccinated. In order not to wish anyone out of context, here is a flashback to the reporter’s question and Rogers’ response to it. In it, Rogers clearly said “yes” to specific issues before declaring that he was “immune”:

Now that we have completed the Zaprudering of the video, let’s take a look at Fox News NFL analyst/legendary former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Terry Bradshaw reaction It was discovered from Sunday to last week that Rogers was actually not vaccinated:
“I will give Aaron Rogers some advice,” Bradshaw said on Sunday’s show, which was broadcast at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. “If he just came to the Naval Academy and learned how to be honest, that would be great. Learn not to lie. Because that’s what you did, Aaron. You lied to everyone.”
[…]
“We are a divided country politically. We are a divided country on COVID-19, whether vaccinated or not. Unfortunately, some of our players almost only think about themselves. I am very disappointed by Aaron Rogers’ behavior. .”
Bradshaw also tore a page from CNN/Don Lemon/Sanjay Gupta script Rogers pointed out that he took ivermectin, and the statement that “Ivermectin is a bovine insect repellent” seriously misled the audience. Sorry guys, that’s it. ”

Let me start by saying that when you lie, you are causing trouble for yourself because eventually you will be caught, especially if you are a public figure, especially in the history of the United States for WrongThink. .The best thing Rogers did at the time was to take some methods NBA star Just say “No, but after consulting my doctor and other experts, I have taken other measures to try to immunize myself against COVID” or “This is a private matter between me and my doctor.”
He would be criticized at the time for these comments, but at least he would get them out of trouble before the start of the football season.
But although they said the reason why It is not important that a person does not tell the truth, I think it is important in this case. Let’s stop and think about the possibility of why Rogers feels that his answer does not need to be completely honest.
My guess is that this is precisely because of what he is dealing with now: a judgmental and hypocritical news group ruthlessly demanding to know the vaccination status of every celebrity, politician, and sports figure, you can tell it. name. If you are vaccinated, you are a good person responsible for these people (unless you are a Republican who is fully vaccinated but not wearing a mask). If you are not, then you are an attempted murderer and you should stay away from the upper class before you join this program.
It is insanity. Since when did someone’s private vaccination status become a public matter? When this question was asked on social media, the standard answer was “Well, this person’s failure to vaccinate may affect my health.” Don’t these people know that even vaccinated people can not only get the virus? But can spread, and also?
Of course, this inconvenient information is rarely mentioned by the media/wake-up mobs who hunt down people like Joe Logan and Rogers. The point is to isolate and destroy, and let the facts go to hell.And the mantra that a person’s medical decision should be made by them and their doctor alone is hell, just like we have been Tell repeatedly Talking about women and abortion.
Should Aaron Rodgers be honest about his vaccination in August? He can choose two options, as I mentioned above. But he answered in his way, and the rest is history.
That said, it’s not the country’s Terry Bradshaw and the super annoying “Wake Up” sports columnist slamming Rogers for saying what he did in August, maybe what they should really ask is why it should be Trib Whether Radshaw’s or Aaron Rogers (or anyone else, for that matter) was vaccinated first, it has something to do with anyone else.
His body, his choice. right?
