“We Were The Guinea Pigs”
from Think Things Through Hosted by Clayton Craddock
Matt Barnes, who used to play in the NBA, and Sage Steele, a well-known sports journalist, recently talked about their experiences with the COVID vaccine rules. They both mentioned how the information available at the time wasn't clear or reliable. Steele clarified, “I wasn’t anti-the-shot… I just need more time,” emphasizing her desire for more information before deciding on such an important decision. Matt echoed this sentiment, stating, “We were the guinea pigs… whatever they put in us, we were the guinea pigs,” questioning the potential long-term effects of the COVID jabs. Sage said, “I was never a conspiracy theorist. I just want truth. And when I see lies, immediately, then you go, well, what else have you lied to me about?” In September 2021, Sage Steele spoke on a podcast about feeling "defeated" by having to get a mandatory COVID-19 vaccine to keep her job after her employer, Disney, issued a mandate in July 2021. In a similar vein, Matt Barnes, a studio analyst for NBC Sports California, shared that he had a similar experience. During an appearance on VladTV, he stated, "I was forced to do it to keep my job." How would you feel about getting vaccinated if it was a requirement for your job? Get full access to Clayton Craddock at thinkthingsthrough.substack.com/subscribe
