In a series of bombshell tweets, popular radio host Ben Shapiro accused Pfizer and the federal government of “lying about their stats”, and he appeared to express remorse for recommending the Covid vaccine too “broadly”, including to people who are not high-risk. He also said that had he known then what he knows now he “wouldn’t have taken it” himself.
Shapiro, a conservative podcast host and Orthodox Jew, was responding this past week to critics of his apparent reversal of position on the Covid vaccine.
One critic tweeted “Didn’t you tell everyone to get the vaccine? And called the ones who haven’t gotten it “dopes”?”
Shapiro replied, “I broadly recommended the vaxx when Pfizer and the feds were lying about their stats. As data emerged, I recommended it for the elderly and obese. I opposed vaxx mandates the whole time. My company spent millions and risked millions in fines to sue the feds to stop vaxx mandates.”
That same critic replied, “Yes that is true. But honestly you should have known they were lying. It was common sense and logic. Basic human history has proven time and time again that government and big pharma lie and manipulate every chance they get. So why blindly believe their stats?”
