Sorry, can’t find any better sources for this.

The animator then asked Maher what the “downside” of “getting a vaccine” was, which caused the comedian to go on an anti-vax tirade.

“The fact that you the fact that you don’t even have a clue what’s the cost of getting a vaccine that you don’t know the answer to that. You completely want to shut your eyes to the fact that there are repercussions to all medical interventions, including a vaccine, all vaccines,” he ranted. “They come, they say side effects, just like every medication does. You can see it in the literature. They can’t write it on their back on the vaccine. So you have to dig them. And of course, there is a vaccine court because so many people have been injured.”

    Much like this post’s OP, couldn’t find any better sources? How about the actual interview in YouTube? Google the names of the two guys, that’s all it takes. But no, let’s all just rant about how bad anti vax people are, rather than argue whatever points they make. This is such an extreme echo chamber.

    For me, it was most revealing when the EU parliament got the pharmaceutical execs to admit they did not track basic stats of the vaccine. Does it prevent infection completely? If not, does it stop retransmission? Does it minimize the severity (no reaction, slight cold, hospitalized, death)? Nope, we’re not tracking that.

      well that’s crazy…
      and got the vax earlier than most (got sorta a standby appointment for when higher risk people didn’t show up)… and i got a booster…
      i’m a very big fan of vaccines…
      i’m still not a fan of the way the covid vaccine discussions were censored…
