MSNBC commentator Katty Kay told Dr. Zeke Emanuel on “Morning Joe” that she is “shocked” and “appalled” that her 22-year-old and 16-year-old children decided not to get the Covid booster vaccine. “I listen to that doctor and you hear how tough it is in the hospitals at the moment, and the fears of new variants, mixed with flu, that is coming on,” Kay said. “You would think that the country would respond by saying, ‘OK, we will make sure we are all up to date on all of our vaccines.'” She described telling her children that she made vaccine appointments. In response, both her grown and teenage children said they have had “enough vaccines” and that they “don’t think [they] need them.”
From The Blaze:
"There are only two things that really can prevent transmission of the COVID virus. One is a good mask, an N95 mask and wearing it, especially in crowded situations, on airplanes and transportation, and the other is better indoor ventilation," [Dr. Zeke Emanuel] went on to say. "Unfortunately, we’ve gotten to a situation where neither of them seem to be a very high priority to reduce the transmission. And I think that’s where we’re at." But Dr. Emanuel ultimately condemned people for placing too much emphasis on vaccines. "Putting every emphasis on vaccines is not going to solve this problem," he declared.
