Tucker Carlson confirms he never took the experimental COVID-19 vaccines – LifeSite

(LifeSiteNews) — In a confrontational interview with Republican presidential nomination candidate Asa Hutchinson, conservative commentator Tucker Carlson asserted that he never took the COVID-19 vaccine.

The revelation took place during a July 14 presidential summit sponsored by Blaze Media in which Carlson was pressing the former Arkansas governor about his position on the COVID vaccine and related mandates.

“How did you feel about [COVID mandates] and how many COVID shots did you take, and how do you feel about it now in retrospect?” Carlson asked Hutchinson.

“How many COVID shots did you take?” Hutchinson replied.

“Zero,” answered Carlson, at which point the crowd erupted with applause. “But I think it’s fair, and I can see that you recoiled when I asked you that question, and I don’t think honestly that you should be asking people about their medical care, but that became a matter of public policy and I do think that the whole country ought to pause and assess like ‘What did we just go through, how do we feel about it now?’”

Hutchinson, in response, explained that as the governor of Arkansas throughout the COVID-19 so-called pandemic his government prohibited the implementation of vaccine mandates as a condition of employment for public sector workers, eliciting some mild applause from the crowd.

However, it was Carlson’s blunt reply that he did not receive any doses of the experimental COVID injections that caused a firestorm of support on social media, with many pointing out that even his so-called conservative employer at the time, Fox News, had imposed a workplace vaccine mandate at its New York City headquarters.

Carlson’s admittance that he never received the vaccine comes in stark contrast to the messaging put out by other mainstream media members, including other so-called conservative reporters and hosts.

In July 2021, as reported by LifeSiteNews, Carlson’s then-colleague Sean Hannity used his large Fox News show to push vaccination against COVID-19.

Similar reporting was pushed to the public by myriad left-wing outlets.

Many in the alternative media space, however, like LifeSiteNews, instead published numerous reports on the oft-hidden reality of the COVID-19 vaccines, including their experimental nature and the growing number of reports of health complications and even deaths that have followed receipt of the novel injections.

In the combative interview with Hutchinson, Carlson also pressed the presidential hopeful on his seeming support of the chemical and surgical mutilation of gender-confused children.

As the former governor of Arkansas, Hutchinson in 2021 vetoed a bill seeking to ban the “sex-reassignment” of children but was ultimately overridden by the state legislature.

Hutchinson ultimately failed to clarify his stance on the issue, saying that he doesn’t support the surgical mutilation of children because it is “permanent,” but does support the “rights” of parents who chose to have their child injected with “puberty blockers” and cross-sex hormones, both of which can cause serious and harmful permanent change.
