‘We were told that these vaccines prevented infection.’
Florida’s Governor is offering a new take on his inoculation against COVID-19 early in the pandemic. He says he got it so he could keep doing his job.

During a press conference with reporters in New England, Gov. Ron DeSantis explained that he got the “one and done” Johnson & Johnson shot so he wouldn’t run the risk of being “out of pocket” during a critical time for the state.

“We did do one shot of the Johnson & Johnson. And that was it for me. And basically the reason why I did it, even though I’m low risk for COVID, is because we were told that these vaccines prevented infection. And so I was Governor and I didn’t want to be out of pocket for two weeks because I got infected,” DeSantis said.
