‘Not Someone Who Believes in Science’: Fox News Pundit Says ‘Pray on It’ Pence Shouldn’t Be ‘Anywhere Near’ Coronavirus

By David Edwards – Raw Story


Fox News contributor Jessica Tarlov asserted on Thursday that Vice President Mike Pence is the wrong person to be in charge of fighting the Coronavirus.

“There are deep concerns about putting Mike Pence at least quasi-in charge,” Tarlov told a Fox News panel. “He oversaw an HIV outbreak in Indiana. Instead of going with science and dealing with needle exchanges, he went after Planned Parenthood and people got sick there because of it.”

“Mike Pence is not a scientist, he’s not a doctor, he’s not someone who believes really in science,” she continued. “And I don’t believe that he should be in charge of this of anywhere near the forefront and that is a big concern.”


Fox News host Ed Henry interrupted to object: “You say he doesn’t believe in science.”

“Well, with climate science, he thinks you should pray on it,” Tarlov replied. “If you have HIV, you should go to a doctor. If you have a Coronavirus, you should go to a doctor. And this isn’t about insulting prayer, it’s just saying that that kind of policy and that kind of thinking is outdated and has no place in modern society.”

It was then that Robertson went into a rift about the godly healthcare plan.

“What I’m saying is that Kamala, I already have healthcare. It’s given to me by God,” he said. “Eternal health care. I’m guaranteed to be raised from the dead. I have life and immortality given to me by God through Jesus Christ.” A stunned Cavuto rightfully noted that “people get sick on Earth.”

Robertson said that doctors only provide a “temporary reprieve.”

“Doctors can give you a temporary reprieve but they cannot save you from physical death,” Robertson said. “The doctors who treat you, they die too.”

“You’re not dismissing that we, people need healthcare, right?” Cavuto then asked.

Robertson said it wasn’t necessary, adding that he didn’t have healthcare for 50 years and didn’t need it.
