White House Press Secretary, Jen Psaki, has had a thorn in her side since day one on the job and his name is Peter Doocy. During the latest White House press brief Doocy said:
‘I understand that the science says that vaccines prevent death. But I’m triple-vaxxed, still got COVID. You’re triple-vaxxed, still got COVID. Why is the president still referring to this as a pandemic of the unvaccinated?’
In her laid-back style, Psaki said she had only suffered “minor symptoms” at the time she tested positive for COVID-19. This was shortly after her vaccination:
‘You are 17 times more likely to go to the hospital if you’re not vaccinated, 20 times more likely to die. So yes, the impact for people who are unvaccinated is far more dire than for those who are vaccinated.’
Peter’s father, Steve Doocy had appeared on Fox & Friends with a very different narrative. Quoting his own doctor, the elder Doocy said that it helps to:
‘[T]hink of the vaccine as like wearing a kevlar vest. [It may not] stop a bullet [from hitting you,] but it won’t let the bullet kill you.And that’s why I trust the doctors. I trust the science. You know, it’s the only game we’ve got right now is to get vaccinated and boosted.’
Doocy’s own father answered this question on the air last week (and was promptly shouted down by both his Fox co-hosts) https://t.co/DbXRPxNV8U https://t.co/NyGoAsTMeK
