ESPN reporter Allison Williams leaving network over COVID-19 vaccine mandate

ESPN reporter Allison Williams is leaving the network over her decision not to get a COVID-19 vaccine, Williams said Friday on Instagram.

Disney, ESPN’s parent company, has implemented a coronavirus mandate for all employees that will go into effect Thursday. Williams said last month that she was unvaccinated and planned to remain that way while she and her husband were trying to have a second child.

The CDC has said that pregnant women can safely receive any of the three coronavirus vaccines available to Americans. An overwhelming majority of medical experts and health organizations have determined that the vaccine has no impact on fertility.

Good God in Butter she might very well have been getting her "information" from Russian
produced and or backed propaganda that started from Facebook.

When Dr. Fauci and the CDC's Dr. Rachel Wolinsky say it is safe to get vaccinated and then
get or be pregnant they know what they are talking about. But you know what is harmful
to the mother or baby? C-19.

Get the shot and shut the fuck up.

And Allison, I could not make it through most of your 5+ minute video.

I'm not aligned with it. Morally.

So I had to cut ties with your video.

Moral alignment aside, the other reason is that I didn't watch the entire video is because I never fucking heard of you.

I do have family that died of Covid though, Allison.

They probably never heard of you either.

I would ask them, but they won't answer.
