U.S. Sen. Rand
Paul, R-Ky., went head to head in a Senate hearing with HHS Secretary Xavier
Becerra and called him out for ignoring the science of what’s happening with
the COVID vaccines versus natural immunity acquired by a previous COVID
infection.
Becerra, who is
neither a medical doctor nor a scientist — Paul pointed out that Becerra
doesn’t even have a degree in science — is traveling the country “calling
people flat-earthers” for believing that if they’ve already had COVID they
don’t need the vaccine, Paul said.
“We find that
very insulting. It goes against the science,” Paul said. And, Paul added,
Becerra is doing this in spite of an Israeli study of 2.5 million people
showing that the vaccinated group was actually seven times more likely to get
infected with COVID than those with natural immunity from a previous infection.
When Becerra
said he wasn’t familiar with that study and “would have to get back” to Paul on
it, Paul chastised Becerra for his ignorance, saying he was making decisions
for 100 million Americans who already had COVID when he isn’t even keeping up
with the science.
“You alone are
on high and you’ve made these decisions, a lawyer with no scientific
background, no medical degree. This is an arrogance coupled with an
authoritarianism that is unseemly and un-American,” Paul said. “You, sir, are
the one ignoring the science.”
