Senator JD Vance appeared on “The Joe Rogan Experience” on Thursday and discussed a wide range of topics related to his experience and campaign.

During the three-hour conversation, Vance told Rogan, who made false claims about vaccines on his show, about his doubts about the Covid-19 vaccine.

COVID-19 vaccine has been proven It is effective in preventing serious diseases and death from the virus. Some side effects Symptoms from the vaccine include “pain, redness or swelling at the injection site, fatigue, headache, muscle pain, chills, fever and nausea” and usually resolve on their own within a few days, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Vance claimed on the show that he was on the “red pill” after experiencing side effects after receiving an unidentified Covid-19 vaccine.

“We’re not even allowed to talk about the fact that I’ve been sicker than I’ve ever been for two days and the worst COVID experience I’ve ever had was like a sinus infection. I’m not really willing to trade that,” Vance claimed.

Vance also said he was concerned there could be a “conflict” with developing countries in 30 to 40 years because Westerners have a negative perception of “giving them health care that’s not really health care,” referring to vaccines.

The senator also claimed that people reject white privilege and become trans or gender non-binary by participating in DEI programs to get into Ivy League colleges.
