exactly in tandem with the number of vaccinations'A Fox News guest baselessly claimed that mass shooters "will come out exactly in tandem with the number of vaccinations" in commenting on a mass shooting at a San Jose, California rail yard on Wednesday.
Retired New York City Police Department detective Pat Brosnan first connected the latest shooting to an overall "lack of enforcement" of laws and a lack of respect for law enforcement. He then claimed, without evidence, that more Americans getting vaccinated will cause more mass shootings, arguing that mass shooters were previously too scared of COVID-19 to commit violence.
"This is a time that I wish I was wrong with my prediction, which I mention to anybody who would listen, that once COVID starts to lift, these cowardly shooters will come out exactly in tandem with the number of vaccinations. You can be sure they probably got vaccinated, they were just scared to come out," Brosnan said. "And they're coming back. And you see the numbers don't lie, shootings are up dramatically, skyrocketing actually on active shootings in the United States."

Fox News has had a tumultuous relationship with accurate information regarding COVID-19 since the start of the pandemic.

Brosnan was a cop who murdered a Latino teen & another young Latino in 1995 by shooting them in the back as they lay face-down on the floor. NYC paid a $1+M settlement in a civil suit, but neither cop was punished. Brosnan still receives his pension. https://nydailynews.com/new-york/bronx
