That CNN interviewer needs to get better control of her facial expressions. She is dripping with judgement and sanctimony. Especially with the nurse. What happened to applauding health care heroes? While the CNN talking head was working in a newsroom, the nurse was face to face with Covid for a whole year saving people! She's earned the right to decide about the vaccine.

Every one of those people had a rational reason to not get the shots. Especially the lady who had Covid and the guy who got the shot, and then got Covid. Both had Covid, no need for the shots. Everyone else is entitled to choose what injections go into their bodies, for any reason.

The bobblehead news lady just can't get over the fact that people came to a different conclusion than her.

Where was her interview with colleague Chris Cuomo who drove around the Hamptons while sick with Covid. She didn't use her sour grapes judgement face on him.

At least CNN gets credit for finding normal people with normal concerns, not the fringe.

Just to be clear on a few things: I lost two brothers, a nephew, and extended family members in the early months of the virus. My adult sons were both vaccine trial volunteers because of those family members losses and they felt it was important to have minority volunteers. Every eligible member in my family, including siblings and their families, are now fully vaccinated with the exception of one - me. I can’t get the vaccine for health reason. I got a second and then a third opinion on the subject and was told the same thing all three times. I also have multiple co-morbidities that put me at high risk. But you know what, my last major hospitalization was over the flu, I didn’t get to demand everyone take the flu shot, so it’s not like I don’t know what it’s like to be worried that other people’s health can impact my life.

So, yeah....
My body, my choice.
Her body, her choice.
Your body, your choice.
If you are concerned continue wearing your mask and social distancing.
I'm so sorry to hear that. This virus has been brutal to so many. It was heroic of your sons to volunteer in the trials.

Sure, why not. Your body, your choice.

I would prefer not to be treated by a vaccinated nurse.

I seriously doubt CNN would allow 6 minutes of truth on their channel....really bad for their business reputation of being the most untrusted news source.
