I totally missed this. I never expected Bill Maher, one time liberal comedian to go Antivaxx and Anti-medicine.
Didn't he credit the vaccine in 2021 for helping him:
“I assure – and thank – all well-wishers I was never sick and feel great (undoubtedly the shot) and will be back next week.”
Onstage Friday night, Maher said the vaccine “probably” helped him not get sick.
“Did it help? Probably? I don’t know. We don’t know. Yes, probably. I don’t know,” he said. “You know, most people who got the thing never got very sick. Less than 4 percent went to the hospital — I know media doesn’t like to talk about that! It’s something to be respected? Obviously, yes. And so, good. The point is, I had it!”
He also marveled at people wondering how he could have tested positive if he was vaccinated.
“It happens! They never said it was 100 percent effective,” Maher said.
HOW QUICKLY THEY FORGET!!!
He's become a press hungry prick that knows being controversial will get him mentioned on Faux News every Saturday morning. I've had enough of his antics. Fuck him.
Disclaimer, I just now saw this other Forum post after I posted mine. But I'll leave mine up as I think it serves to show just how far and how fast someone can change in relatively short order.
Bill Maher is 65 (or thereabouts) and he should know the vaccine is meant to keep people his age on the sunny side of the dirt, not just keep one from testing positive for asymptomatic disease. What is his problem!
