Aaron Rodgers blasts Biden for COVID-19 overreach, multiple blunders
“When the president of the United States says, ‘This is a pandemic of the unvaccinated,’ it’s because him and his constituents, which, I don’t know how there are any if you watch any of his attempts at public speaking, but I guess he got 81 million votes,”
The rebuke came after Biden, while visiting Kentucky to inspect the tornado damage, told a Green Bay Packers fan that she needed to "tell that quarterback [a reference to Rodgers who is unvaccinated] he's gotta get the vaccine."
Rodgers criticized Biden and the administration which he says are "not helping the conversation" by insisting that Americans receive the COVID-19 vaccine without sharing both the benefits and potential side effects of the jab.

"When the president of the United States says, 'This is a pandemic of the unvaccinated,' it's because him and his constituents, which, I don't know how there are any if you watch any of his attempts at public speaking, but I guess he got 81 million votes," Rodgers said Thursday, according to ESPN. "But when you say stuff like that, and then you have the CDC, which, how do you even trust them, but then they come out and talk about 75% of the COVID deaths have at least four comorbidities. And you still have this fake White House set saying that this is the pandemic of the unvaccinated, that's not helping the conversation."
Rodgers, who tested positive for COVID-19 back in early November, has lambasted the NFL's pandemic panic, declaring that "if science can't be questioned," then it's "propaganda," during routine appearances on "The Pat McAfee Show." The athlete has also become a vocal opponent of cancel culture and wore an anti-cancel culture sweatshirt gifted by Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy.
Since the winter Omicron surge, the White House has been grilled over Biden's persisting language calling COVID-19 a "pandemic of the unvaccinated." Biden has had numerous gaffes and regurgitated divisive phrasing over the crisis-filled year.
