Fox News hosts urge viewers to get vaccinated following criticisms of network

A pair of Fox News hosts on Monday urged viewers of the network to get vaccinated against the coronavirus, dismissing conspiracy theories about the safety and efficacy of the vaccine.

“Well, here’s the thing. And one of the CDC officials said yesterday, look, the pandemic right now is really just with people who have not been vaccinated. Ninety-nine percent of the people who died have not been vaccinated. What they are trying to do is make sure that all of the people who have not been vaccinated get vaccinated," Steve Doocy said Monday on "Fox & Friends."

During a separate segment on Monday's "Fox & Friends," co-host and anchor Bill Hemmer asked Fox News medical contributor Marc Siegel: "The vaccine works, right? We haven’t budged on that, have we, doc?”

Conservatives literally crying now that fox news is telling them to get vaccinated

The male hosts seem to be at odds with each other, one breaks with the antivax message and the other chimes in to reduce the backlash from their viewers looking to stay on the antivax train. Ladies and Gentlemen, THEY ARE NOT HERE FOR THE GREATER GOOD OF THEIR OWN VIEWRS. Can they make it any more clear?

NOPE! Too little….TOO LATE! Your followers don’t believe you and definitely won’t be taking your advice! 🤷‍♀️

Well well well.... it only took them over a year to say it....Happy, sad and pathetic all in one flow.

[SantaDog]

Sounds like a certain network lost in court. Again.

Fox and Q people are so confused now!🤣

How come the commercials for the Covid medications carry no warnings about side effects? All the other medication's commercials on TV do.

Nah not getting vaxed and I stopped watching Fox months ago!

Likely won't make a difference. Trump went on to tell people to take the vaccine 3 months ago but it didn't make a difference. People are critical thinkers and are capable to make informed decisions on their own using science and mathematics. The rurals you don't have to worry. Urban areas are where they are struggling to get vaccinated. It is not like the Black Death where you had 50% survival rate at best. We are talking about something that is less than 1% on average, less than 0.001% of you are under 35.

Right? We should just take the warning labels off of every product and let the problem work itself out.

Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.”
For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.

I noticed they have shut their traps on this subject of late. They must be freaking out wondering how their health will be down the track - if indeed they took the clot shot themselves.

Interesting how Republicans ALL OF A SUDDEN are all about " my body my choice"🤔

[RoosterGunther]

DONE with FOX... Done with all major media... WE DO NOT BELIEVE YOU!!!! Tucker go find a new HOME!!!

[bmccarthy]

Oops! Somebody put a new quarter in the Fox Juke Box...they are singing a new tune!

[espna]

The oligarchs must have told Fox News that they better act up. There is no difference between Fox News, CNN, MSNBC. All the same with different faces and different graphics.

These guy's will say anything they get paid to say.

Ugh, why the cyberpunk ominous background track? The hill sucks these days

This is one reason fox is not allowed in my home. So much info out there that is not shared to the people.
