Former CDC director drops COVID bombshell: Vaccinating pregnant women was a ‘mistake’

We’re now living in a time where the “science” has finally caught up to what “conspiracy theorists” were saying years ago.

Former CDC Director Robert Redford joined NewsNation’s Katie Pavlich to reveal that he was not personally in favor of recommending the COVID vaccine to pregnant women. This comes after personal texts from former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases head Dr. Anthony Fauci acknowledged that there was a possibility the jab could cause miscarriages.

Look:

Redford told Pavlich that he “never thought we should vaccinate pregnant women” despite it becoming public policy.

“I never thought we should vaccinate pregnant women. I was not in favor of that policy recommendation because the COVID vaccine did not prevent infection,” he explained. “So the argument that some people had that you had to vaccinate pregnant women to protect the unborn baby because it would protect mommy from getting infected, that was not a true statement because it doesn’t prevent infection. And so I was of the view that the only thing the vaccine really accomplished, which was important, was it prevented serious illness and death in people that were at high risk for serious illness and death, and those are people largely over 65, of which obviously that doesn’t include the pregnant women population.”

He later called the policy of vaccinating pregnant women an “error in judgement” and took issue with the lack of  “open, transparent discussion of this for the public, so the public could make their own decisions about whether they should take the vaccine when they were pregnant or not.”

This comes as Sen. Rand Paul, R-Kentucky, continues his crusade against Fauci in an attempt to hold the former top health official accountable for the egregious and arguably preventable errors made during the COVID era.
