«I understand that this issue in general is very charging to a lot of people because we’re talking about public health,» Rodgers said on Tuesday.
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers said on Tuesday that he takes «full responsibility» for anyone that was «misled» by his past COVID-19 vaccine comments. «I made some comments that people might have felt were misleading and to anyone who felt misled by those comments, I take full responsibility for those comments,» Rodgers said during an interview on The Pat McAfee Show podcast. The comments by Rodgers come a few days after he appeared on the Pat McAfee podcast to discuss he decision to not receive a COVID-19 vaccine. During his previous appearance, Rodgers, who was recently diagnosed as being infected with COVID-19, said that he was allergic to an ingredient in the mRNA vaccines ( Pfizer and Moderna), leading him to find his own personal treatment plan to combat the virus. During his previous interview, Rodgers also noted that he wanted to eventually become a father and said, «To my knowledge, there has been zero long-term studies around sterility or fertility issues around the vaccines, so that definitely was something that I was worried about.
