Psaki Attacks Florida Surgeon General on Covid Shots

BUCK: Here’s Jen Psaki saying that it is disturbing that people are saying… She’s mad at him because he says little kids are not advised — who are healthy, little 4-year-olds are not advised to get — or 5-year-olds, whatever, to get — the shot. Play.

BUCK: She sounds like a little idiot robot, all right? You failed, libs. We saw what happened with the vaccine. Even the CDC chief is like, yeah, maybe we were a little too enthusiastic about the vaccine. They failed. It doesn’t stop the spread. No need for children to get them. No benefit able to be statistically shown for children. The data? Why was the CDC holding back in data, folks? Because the data showed they were making people get shots they 100% did not need in terms of the younger age-groups including children.

CLAY: Not even just that young. If you’re under the age of 35, you are more likely to die in a car accident than you are to die with covid. Again, I say “with covid,” because most of the people who are dying, especially younger people, have many different health related conditions. And covid is one of them. But I give credit to Florida, to Ron DeSantis, to the Surgeon General Ladapo for being willing to say publicly what the data has reflected for some time, and that is this.

Young children do not need to get the covid shot. If you want to get your kids the covid shot, that is your right as a parent. I have been pretty straightforward and transparent on this show for a year, basically, that I’m not getting my kids the covid shot. I’ve got a 14-year-old, I’ve got an 11-year-old, I’ve got a 7-year-old. Three boys. They’re not getting the covid shot. Not anti-vax. They’ve had all their measles, mumps, rubellas, everything else.

My parents, who are 75 years old, they got it. Buck’s parents got it. We said, “Look, if you’re a senior citizen, that can make sense.” But for young people, it does not makes sense to be getting the covid shot. And that’s why we’re going to have this direct conflict between a state like California, which is saying, “Hey, you have to get your kids covid shot in order to be enrolled this coming fall.”

That’s what they’re saying in California with Gavin Newsom, at least right now. And the state of Florida, where they are saying, “Hey, we don’t think kids need to get the covid shot at all,” they are diametrically opposed on whether or not this is necessary. And the data — and it did not get a lot of attention, but the data — showed for kids who are ages 5 to 11 who got this shot, that there was no statistical benefit in terms of their likelihood of getting or not getting covid compared to people who got the shot versus people who didn’t.

Also, Buck, this is why we are ripping the new mayor of New York City, Eric Adams, because right now kindergarten through twelfth graders finally don’t have to wear masks in school, but he came out and said the reason why 2-, 3-, 4-year-olds, kids who are in preschool have to wear the mask is because he’s worried about having to shut down the city again if they are unmasked. The madness is still continuing, and to your point — we started asking this question before anybody else — where’s our buddy Fauci? Where is he? He’s vanished.

BUCK: He’s obviously hard at work on a memoir in between appearances on podcasts with dozens and dozens of listeners talking about the great hero of the pandemic, also known as Tiny Anthony Fauci, who somehow was wrong about literally every little thing at every point in time.

CLAY: Everything.

BUCK: But libs were making little statues and little shrines to him with glasses and a little mask on a tiny figurine with a giant ego. So he’s apparently just MIA right now, Clay. I think we all know why.

CLAY: And he’s furious that they’ve made him MIA, by the way, such that he’s willing to suddenly do every possible place out there that will have him except for this show — and, you know, we have way too large of an audience for Dr. Fauci to be willing to do it.
