GOP Governor Says Misinformation Is Killing People
July 16, 2021 at 10:30 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard


Utah Gov. Spencer Cox (R) decried “propaganda” spread against coronavirus vaccines, warning that those discouraging immunization are “killing people,” the Washington Post reports.

Said Cox: “We have these — these talking heads who have gotten the vaccine and are telling other people not to get the vaccine. That kind of stuff is just, it’s ridiculous. It’s dangerous, it’s damaging, and it’s killing people. I mean, it’s literally killing their supporters. And that makes no sense to me.”

to come out with similar statements. Remind people those badmouthing the vaccine have in
fact taken the vaccine themselves ie: FQX noise.

Non Crazy Trump boot licking republicans need to speak up loudly.

Of course there are anti vaccine folks who aren’t wingnuts just horribly misguided. I will never get them. Is there a tiny minuscule risk....yes, like virtually anything. But people need to protect themselves and others they encounter.
