TUCKER CARLSON (HOST): Thousands of vaccinators to vaccinate everyone. That sounds amazing, but it does raise at least one vexing question.
What if you don't want to get vaccinated? Not everyone does. Some people have religious objections. Others have concerns about this specific medicine. Others simply don't want it.
Do you need a reason to turn down the vaccine? And what happens if you do turn it down? Will you be allowed to fly on airplanes, or go to work, or enter the front doors of Madison Square Garden? Joe Biden didn't specify, but it's pretty hard to believe he would support any kind of vaccine coercion. As he has told us so often over so many years, if it's your body, it's your choice.
...
Quite frankly, you've got the absolute right to make your own personal decisions about your own personal health care. Period. That's in the Constitution. Joe Biden would never violate that right, he's been defending that right since before you were born. It's your body, it's your choice. Period.
Of course, as with everything, there are caveats. If you don't take the shot that Joe Biden wants you to take, if you persist in making your own personal decisions about your own personal health care, then Joe Biden is going to have to shut the country down again. No socially distanced barbecues for you, buddy. You're going to have to eat your hot dogs alone, inside.
