Veteran independent journalist Megyn Kelly candidly revealed on her podcast Wednesday that she regrets getting the COVID-19 vaccine.

Kelly has refused to let her children get the controversial vaccine but due to work and age considerations, she has had it along with a booster. She now believes it is responsible for the sudden onset of her autoimmune diagnosis.

“I regret getting the vaccine even though I am a 52-year-old woman because I don’t think I needed it,” Kelly told journalist David Zweig. “I think I would have been fine. I’ve gotten COVID many times and it was well past when the vaccine was doing what it was supposed to be doing.”

“For the first time, I tested positive for an autoimmune issue at my annual physical,” she revealed. “And I went to the best rheumatologist in New York, and I asked her, do you think this could have to do with the fact that I got the damn booster and then got COVID within three weeks? And she said yes. ‘Yes.’ I wasn’t the only one she’d seen that with.”

In April 2021, Kelly wrote on X, “Am getting the [Johnson & Johnson] vaccine this [weekend]. Have zero qualms [because] have spent a life immersed in a media obsessed with fear-mongering that is often irresponsible and untrue. Do what your doctor tells you to do and ignore everyone else.”

But that sentiment shifted as Kelly saw the effect the vaccine was reportedly having on others as well as her experience with having COVID a number of times.

Kelly found a lot of support on X and there have reportedly been many, many out there who have developed adverse conditions due to the jab:

Refreshing to see this from @megynkelly. These are the kinds of videos that open up the flood gates for everyone to start questioning the experimental shots they took.

In many respects, Megyn Kelly is a more interesting person than at the height of her success.
Humility allows us to acknowledge things we were wrong about, & tell ourselves the truth.

It’s almost like the conspiracy theorists were right this entire time.
