Erick Erickson: My Family Has Seen How the Vaccine Works So Well; I’m Angry at the Amount of Disinformation out There

EXCERPT:

ERICKSON: "My wife lost a cousin who was in perfect health, no comorbidities, and lost a cousin, he wasn't vaccinated, I have lost several friends, lost my mom's best friend who I considered my aunt. Had multiple friends who were on ICU, several ventilator — on vents. My sister has lost several friends and I keep encountering people, at least in the online world, who act like they don't know anyone who's been impacted by this. It's very real. It's real for my family. My wife, Anderson, as you know, my wife's got an incurable genetic, very rare form of lung cancer, there's no way she can get rid of it. She never smoked. It puts her at a very high risk of death. We got vaccinated, our kids wound up getting it despite all of our precautions, and we were perfectly fine. We've seen how the vaccine works so well. And to keep encountering people, particularly in talk radio, people call in and, 'Well, what about the Israel study that was misrepresented? What about this study that was misrepresented?' These are well-meaning people who are relying on their friends and their network of friends online, who have been misled and I feel badly for them. And I'm really angry at the amount of disinformation that's out there."
