Dr. Drew Pinsky has responded to the viral tweet he made on Monday claiming that vaccine passports would hinder people from traveling internationally, calling it “a great example of how fake news is generated.”
Appearing on “Daily Blast Live,” Pinsky reiterated his support for the vaccine and told co-hosts Sam Schacher, Jeff Schroeder and Lindsey Granger that his tweet — which he claims was written by his son, not him — was merely meant to be a conversation starter.
“I didn’t say anything about my position, and of course, I know the sky is blue. I know that certain countries require certain kinds of vaccines, but the CDC actually breaks down travel into ‘routine,’ ‘suggested’ and ‘required,’ and there’s very few ‘required’ vaccines,” he said.
