Tucker Carlson Defends Joe Rogan Over Coronavirus Vaccine Comments

In a recent episode of his podcast 'Joe Rogan Experience,' left-wing commentator and former and comedian Joe Rogan questioned why young healthy people are advised to get the wuhanvirus vaccine.

"When people say 'do you think it is safe to get vaccinated?' I’ve said, yeah, I think for the most part it’s safe to get vaccinated, I do, I do," Rogan said. "But, if you’re 21 years old and you say to me 'should I get vaccinated?' I go, 'no!' Are you healthy? Are you a healthy person? Look, don’t do anything stupid, but you should take care of yourself. If you’re a healthy person and you’re exercising all the time and you’re young and you’re eating well, I don’t think you need to worry about this."

Carlson agreed with Rogan's comments. "Yeah, so if you’re at risk, get the vaccine, protect yourself, be happy, be grateful we have the vaccine," he said. "And if you’re not at risk, maybe you don’t. Is that a crazy point?"

The Fox News host noted that instead of explaining why they think that Rogan is wrong, left-wing media pundits resorted to smearing the popular podcaster.

Carlson also pointed out the following in part

Science suggests these kids are highly unlikely to be re-infected with COVID. So why are they being forced to get the vaccine? That’s a serious question. That’s not an anti-vaxxer question. That’s a question people who support vaccines and care about them would ask. Because we don’t give medicine to people unnecessarily. It’s unethical. Meningitis kills a fair number of people every year, but we don’t require everyone to start a regimen of antibiotics before they return to work. That would be crazy. But we are requiring universal vaccination, even of kids who’ve already been infected. Is that a medically sound idea? Some physicians are concerned that it’s not.
