Aaron Rodgers refused the vaccine and New York Jets“The starting quarterback refuses to forget those who opposed him.

Rodgers, 41, declined the much-publicized COVID vaccine in 2021, and he continues to stand by his decision. Claiming he was “immune” when asked about his vaccination status ahead of the 2021 campaign, the four-time NFL MVP sparked a wide range of criticism from sportswriters to politicians to TV hosts late evening.

Rodgers, who has faced much criticism for his outspoken support for medical freedom and vaccine choice, delivered a message to his public opponents while making its weekly appearance on ESPN Pat McAfee Show.

“Just a little PSA reminder,” Rodgers said. “Say whatever you want about me, I don’t care. But just before you do, whether you say your name, your accolades, your pronouns, whatever, just state your vaccination status, so that whatever you want to say next is put in the right light Just put it out there, because then when you say things, people can at least say, oh, you’re being captured by the multi-billion dollar PSYOP propaganda. dollars, and you are still upset.”

The message applies to known Rodgers adversaries like Jimmy Kimmel and Dr. Peter Hotez, but it seemed like these verbal shots were taken at a former NFL player. Although he didn’t use the player-turned-commentator’s name, Rodgers was likely directing his thoughts toward Ryan Clark.

“Instead of your desperately needed accolades, just list your vaccination status. You care about that so much during the COVID years,” Rodgers said.
