Biden to Packers fan: Aaron Rodgers has 'got to get the vaccine'

GREEN BAY, Wis. (WLUK) — While President Joe Biden visited Kentucky to assess tornado damage, he met a Green Bay Packers fan — and he had a message for Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

Biden was referring to last month's controversy over Rodgers' COVID-19 vaccination status. After Rodgers tested positive for the coronavirus, he revealed he had not received a shot.

Instead, he clarified that when he mentioned before the season that he was immunized, he was referring to a procedure he underwent that he said increased his antibodies. Rodgers said he did not receive a vaccine because he was allergic to an ingredient in the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, and he was concerned about side effects from the Johnson & Johnson vaccine.

Rodgers was not asked about Biden's comment during his Wednesday media availability.

Biden visited Mayfield and Dawson Springs, Ky. Wednesday to view firsthand the devastation that resulted from Friday's tornado outbreak.

That is some next level batshit insanity. And I'm pretty sure that's not how plexiglass works.

I realize that he's not his father, but I'm guessing the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
