SEAN HANNITY (HOST): Lynda, didn't they tell us to follow the science on the coronavirus? Right?
LYNDA MCLAUGHLIN (PRODUCER): Oh, yeah.
HANNITY: Joe said listen to the great Dr. Fauci. Okay. Didn't they --
MCLAUGHLIN: They had t-shirts.
HANNITY: Didn't Joe say again last night every American can now get vaccinated, you need to get a vaccination, Dr. Joe told us last night?
MCLAUGHLIN: That's what Joey said.
HANNITY: That's what Joey said last night, I thought okay, so, my ears were not deceiving me. OK so, now, didn't Congress have access to this vaccine, every member when it first came out? And we're talking back -- December last year, they had access to the vaccine, right?
MCLAUGHLIN: Oh, yeah.
HANNITY: And most of them got the vaccine, right?
MCLAUGHLIN: Well, you know, Joey forgot that, then he remembered again.
HANNITY: Okay, well, and -- yeah, I saw that he wouldn't even give a tip of the hat to Operation Warp Speed and President Trump.
Alright, now, if everybody there had access to the vaccine that they're pushing all of you to get -- and, by the way, I'm not anti-vaccine at all. Just the opposite, I believe in science, I believe in all these things. I'm just -- I just refuse to be your doctor and tell you what you should do.
I think you have to investigate, read, research, learn, and I would seek out as many medical opinions that you trust in your life. I don't know your unique health situation, but that's a decision between you and your doctor that should be private, and really, it's none of my business.
So, I don't ask people if they're vaccinated, and now that you have the choice -- so, if they all had the vaccine, then why -- why was everyone in a mask, and why was everybody socially distanced like we'd never seen before?
Chamber that can hold up to 1,600 people had 200 people in it.
Now, did they not tell us that getting vaccinated would allow us to get us back to normal, and get to herd immunity, et cetera? They told us that, right, Lynda? I'm not making this up.
MCLAUGHLIN: Not at all.
HANNITY: Right. Just like Dr. Fauci said in March of last year a mask isn't gonna help you, right, he said that?
MCLAUGHLIN: That's right.
HANNITY: Maybe one droplet, but that's about it. Nobody should be wearing masks in America, and then that evolved into one mask, and now two masks, and now -- you know, you can't go indoors, you can't go outdoors without the -- I mean, okay, so why did everyone get the vaccine? If the idea, the vaccine, they talk about its efficacy, correct, that it prevents people from getting COVID-19, correct?
MCLAUGHLIN: That's correct.
HANNITY: Alright, well, I just would like an explanation. I'm just asking simple questions here, because I thought that was a little odd.
