A member of Avigdor Liberman's party refuses vaccination
Yisrael Beytenu MK Eli Avidar has no intention of getting the coronavirus vaccine, he said in an interview with 103FM radio, causing a stir among public officials.Correction: it's in the interest of moonbats like Avidar to attack Netanyahu for petty reasons, and what help was Liberman's party during this past year anyway? Predictably, the party's head honcho defended his colleague:
Avidar explained that since he is not in an at-risk group and is making sure he is staying healthy, he doesn't feel he needs to get the vaccine. He also elaborated that he believes that only those who are in a high-risk group should be vaccinated.
"I'm the only one of the MKs who was in Hong Kong during the SARS epidemic, Avidar said. "There were also vaccines there and they talked about the at-risk groups. The government should be telling us: 'We have the vaccine and there are high-risk groups, we don’t need to scare the public.'
"It’s in the interest of [Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu and the Health Ministry to scare us," the MK said in the interview.
Yisrael Beytenu head Avigdor Liberman, however, came to his MK's defense. He said that it is no one's place to intervene in a person's beliefs.Be that as it may, it doesn't mean he should leave himself open to the possibility of getting ill. The vaccine's proven very effective, and will hopefully enable this country to get back to normal by the end of the year. For now, this is another example of what kind of atrocious members Liberman's employing for his embarrassingly bad excuse for a political party.
"He believes in yoga, in veganism and sports. I don’t think this is the place for party discipline. He believes in different things and we should respect that," Liberman said in an interview with KAN News.
