The news November 3, 2021 that Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers was secretly unvaccinated rocked the sports world earlier this week. On August 26, 2021 the QB was asked directly by a reporter if he was vaccinated. He claimed he had been immunized. In his mind he probably felt he wasn’t lying because you can be sure he has been immunized against genital warts. All people ages 9 to 45 can get the HPV vaccine to protect against genital warts.
This QB lied and has been violated the NFL safely protocols. The NFL’s COVID protocol handbook states, “All players and staff who are not fully vaccinated must wear masks (surgical masks are preferred; gaiters and masks with valves or vents are prohibited) at all times when inside the Club facility.”
He was on the sidelines in street clothes during a preseason game without a mask, he has given indoor press conferences without wearing a mask, and, he didn’t bother wearing a mask at a Packers Halloween party. You might think that was the one time he might consider covering his face.
Rabid fans support the frightened player since he must suffer from a supreme case of Trypanophobia which is is an extreme fear of injections or hypodermic needles. Children are especially afraid of needles. This kid is “furious” that his vaccination status was “leaked.”
The Packers should be subject to punishment. But hey there is money to be made packing fans into the stadiums during a pandemic. The QB might be fined one game check. He earns an annual salary of $33,500,000. Oh my.
