The animator then asked Maher what the “downside” of “getting a vaccine” was, which caused the comedian to go on an anti-vax tirade.

“The fact that you the fact that you don’t even have a clue what’s the cost of getting a vaccine that you don’t know the answer to that. You completely want to shut your eyes to the fact that there are repercussions to all medical interventions, including a vaccine, all vaccines,” he ranted. “They come, they say side effects, just like every medication does. You can see it in the literature. They can’t write it on their back on the vaccine. So you have to dig them. And of course, there is a vaccine court because so many people have been injured.”

    No one replaced Colbert. He just went off the air. So I hope everyone got paid while Colbert was sick. And I’m not sure why having high-paid contracts mean you don’t deserve sick time.

          Certainly those that do get paid for being sick should not have the audacity to voice a very public opinion ignoring those that are not paid. You may call that having empathy, I call it having class.
