Former United States President Donald Trump was present at a rally in Alabama this weekend.
There he had a clear and distinct appeal to the masses:
– Do you know what? I completely believe in their freedoms. I do. You have to do what you have to do. But I have a recommendation: Take the vaccines. I did it. They are good. Take the vaccines.
But the invitation was not well received by the public, writes NBC. Among other things, several are said to have arched and shouted things at Trump.
Responded to criticism
Vaccine-critical radio profile died of corona
So many responded that the ex-president had to respond to the criticism. Much of the criticism of the authorities in both the United States and elsewhere in the world is that a requirement for vaccination restricts people’s freedom.
– No, that’s okay. It goes well. You still have your freedoms. But I’m going to take the vaccines. If it does not work, you will be the first to know. I’ll call you in Alabama and say, “Hey, you know what?” But the vaccines work, Trump said after the bow.

However, he emphasized that he understood that people wanted to protect their freedom.
Infection wave
Large parts of the southern states, including Alabama, are now in a strong wave of infection. Several states have in recent weeks reported higher infection rates than in a long time.
A glimpse of freedom
In the town of Cullman, where this voter meeting took place, a separate corona state of emergency was introduced on Thursday, to ensure that the health service had the capacity to follow up the event, the local TV channel wrote ABC3340.
Alabama is the state in the United States with the lowest vaccination rate, according to NBC. About 36 percent of the population there is now fully vaccinated. Governor Kay Ivey has said that “the unvaccinated people” are the reason why the state is now in a delta wave.
Asks Americans to Take the “Trump Vaccine”
Had corona
Trump himself knows very well what it is like to have covid-19, since he himself was diagnosed with the infection in early October, while he was still president.
He then became so ill that he had to be admitted to Walter Reed Military Hospital for a few days, where he received oxygen to help him breathe.
