Aaron Rodgers critical of ever-changing narratives and "misinformation" surrounding COVID-19 vaccines

Aaron Rodgers has been at the center of several debates concerning COVID-19 due to his many musings on the subject. On The Pat McAfee Show on Tuesday, the quarterback once again showered the viewers with his opinions, theories and criticisms of COVID-19 and related vaccines.

Rodgers claimed he has been accused of spreading misinformation with respect to COVID-19 vaccines.

"I've gotten accused of spreading misinformation when I talk about my treatment plan that I used to get better. That's been used by a number of people and doctors," Rodgers said.

For starters, Aaron Rodgers' "treatment plan" consists of monoclonal antibodies. These are currently not being pushed heavily enough by the government to be readily available to most patients. It's created by cloning a unique white blood cell and can help in the treatment of COVID-19 but not in its prevention.

Another aspect of Rodgers' treatment was ivermectin, which is much more controversial. Ivermectin is a horse dewormer that hasn't been tested thoroughly as a treatment for COVID-19, not to mention the many side effects. People have been hospitalized from the usage of ivermectin, although MMA color commentator and podcaster Joe Rogan is promoting it to his audience as a perfect cure.

Rogan recently invited Dr. Peter McCullough to his show. McCullough is a board-certified cardiologist who is a voice for COVID-19 treatments, yet he flat-out speculated that the pandemic was "planned".

“It seems to me we had an intentional, very comprehensive suppression of early treatment in order to promote fear, suffering, isolation, hospitalization and death, and it seemed to be completely organized and intentional in order to create acceptance for, and promote mass vaccination,” Dr. McCullough said.

Aaron Rodgers weighs in on treatments for new COVID-19 variants

The reserve/COVID-19 list reached upwards of 70 players on the weekend of Week 16, with more players being added daily, including the likes of Carson Wentz, Mike Evans and Matt Judon.

Aaron Rodgers thinks there is zero conversation around treatment.

"One of my issues... they don't talk about the fact that people are getting better using these things... But how come, in a league where we are seeing, what, 51 guys on the [COVID-19] list yesterday? There is still zero conversation, at least publicly, around treatment options for people that test positive. I do know, behind the scenes, this is 100 percent true. There are many teams who are using, or recommending, a lot of the same treatments that I go to their players," said Rodgers.

However, it doesn't take much effort to look up the facts.

Pfizer released a pill called Paxlovid, while Merck has come out with molnupiravir. Both have been regulated for usage and have been effective in reducing the chance for hospitalization or death from COVID-19. These treatments are for mild-to-moderate cases and are to be taken as soon as symptoms arise. Of course, not everyone shows symptoms, but there are, at least, actions being taken to release proper treatments to the public.

Rodgers stated that regardless of the variant, there are not a lot of major symptoms, but that there are methods of treatment that help. He added that if one can't question science, then it's not science anymore, before he posed a rhetorical question.

"Whether it's Delta or Omicron, there's not a lot of major symptoms," said Rodgers. "But if you have Delta, like I did, there are treatment options that actually help... If science can't be questioned, then it's not science anymore. It's propaganda... when did science become this blind agreement?"

This last quote from Aaron Rodgers might just bring about the most heated debates his way, as many have experienced severe shortness of breath and even COVID-19 pneumonia. Rodgers himself had tested positive for COVID-19 earlier in the season.

We will have to wait and see what his next appearance with Pat McAfee brings about.
