Kamala Harris Blusters ‘Protect The Vaccinated,’ Gets Mocked: ‘What The Hell Is It Even For?’

On Sunday night, Vice President Kamala Harris, who has unabashedly supported vaccinating Americans in order to protect them from COVID-19, warned that in order to end the pandemic one of the goals was to “protect the vaccinated,” triggering criticism on social media.

Harris tweeted, “By vaccinating the unvaccinated, increasing our testing and masking, and protecting the vaccinated, we can end this pandemic. That’s exactly what we are committed to doing.”

In October 2020, one month before the presidential election, Harris was asked, “If the Trump administration approves the vaccine, before or after the election, should Americans take it and would you take it?”

Harris answered, “If the public health professionals, if Dr. Fauci if the doctors tell us that we should take it, I’ll be the first in line to take it. Absolutely. But if Donald Trump tells us that we should take it, I’m not taking it.”

Harris’ tweet about “protecting the vaccinated” elicited a plethora of tweets slamming Harris:

Former White House Adviser Kellyanne Conway: “Yet she sowed confusion & doubt about the vaccines early on, giggling and dissembling, only to get ‘the Trump vaccine’ as soon as she could. How many visits to unvaccinated communities has she made? (the southern border & Guatemala don’t count).”

Babylon Bee CEO Seth Dillon: “Opposing mandates is not anti-vax. Telling people they need to get vaccinated and wear a mask to protect the already-vaccinated is anti-vax.”

Former Georgia congressional candidate Barrington Martin II: “India and Israel proved this is a lie, ma’am. Your rhetoric supported by your bought media companies continues to instill fear within the American public allowing them to make irrational decisions about their health but also creating irrational tensions among the American people.”

Wrier Christopher D. White: “Again with this claim re ‘protect the vaccinated from the unvaccinated.’ What does this mean? Why hasn’t anyone asked officials why they keep saying this? The implication is that there is something about vaxxed and unvaxxed interactions that effect the vaccine’s potency or is this merely a way to pit the vaccinated folks against the unvaccinated folks, a strategy to provide more pressure on folks to get vaccinated. Either way. By God. It’s important for us to know which is the case.”
