Rand Paul Tells Biden How He Can Get More People To Vaccinate

There is a great deal of confusing and conflicting information surrounding the effectiveness and safety of the COVID-19 vaccines. Yet, the Biden administration continues to believe in the lack of participation from the public is ‘politically motivated. I think one thing that puts Americans off is the fact that getting the vaccine doesn’t seem to relieve pandemic restrictions.

Also, let’s face it, the government doesn’t have the most trustworthy track record. The Biden administration’s lack of transparency only fuels that mistrust.

Sen. Rand Paul says he knows the solution. If Biden wants people to believe the vaccine is safe and it works he should “burn his mask”, Paul says:

“[Biden should] light a torch to it and burn his mask and say, ‘I’ve had the vaccine. I am now safe from this plague. If you’ll get the vaccine you can be safe too,’” Paul told host Martha MacCallum. “The burden of proof should be on the government to prove we’re spreading it. [If we are.] then we’ll listen to them. Instead, it sounds like fear-mongering.”

“The science is about proving that things are happening,” he said. “If Dr. Fauci can prove that people who are vaccinated are spreading the disease, I will listen to him. If he can prove people like me, who have already had it [COVID-19], are spreading the disease, I’ll listen to him. But there is no evidence of that.”

Host Martha MacCallum responded by noting that an estimated 6,000 people out of 63 million had contracted COVID-19 after they were vaccinated.

Paul agreed that there is a “very small” occurrence of so-called “breakthrough” infections, but pointed out there were “virtually zero hospitalizations and virtually zero deaths” from COVID-19 among people who had received the vaccine.

“Most people get a mild course of it, and there’s a rare, if ever, reinfection that caused a fatality,” he said. “So we should appreciate immunity, both naturally acquired and by the vaccine.”

You know why people don’t trust the government?” Paul added. “Because they say everybody is the same. Whether or not you’ve had the disease or not, you have to be vaccinated. It’s this one-size-fits-all that people know this is not dangerous for young people, but very dangerous after a certain age and for overweight people.”

According to the White House medical advisor, Dr. Anthony Fauci, people who receive the vaccine should maintain social distancing and continue to wear their masks because they can still get the virus and spread it to others. Democrats have not lifted pandemic restrictions nor opened schools across many of the blue states.
