Fauci: Pushback by Some People Against Getting Vaccinated ‘Is Inexplicable’

‘The virus doesn’t know whether you’re a Democrat, a Republican or an independent’

RUSH EXCERPT:

FAUCI: “You know, Jake, it’s an inexplicable pushing back on the part of some people about getting vaccinated. I heard it when you were talking just awhile ago to the congressman about the idea of people saying you have — government is knocking on your door trying to force you to vaccinate. That is not the case at all. We’re getting trusted messages to try and get people to understand and appreciate why it’s important for their own safety, for that of their families and for the community in general. There’s no reason not to get vaccinated. You make a very good point. There are places in the world, many places, where the vaccination availability is practically nil. Those places would do anything to get a vaccine. We in the United States have enough vaccinations to give to everybody in the country. And they are life saving. We’ve got to put aside this ideological difference or differences thinking that somebody is forcing you to do something. The public health officials, like myself and my colleagues, are asking you to do something that will ultimately save your life. And that of your family and that of the community. So, Jake, I don’t know. I really don’t have a good explanation, Jake, about why this is happening. I mean, it’s ideological rigidity, I think.“
