MSNBC host disparages own children on live TV for refusing COVID vaccine boosters: 'Shocked and appalled'



MSNBC commentator Katty Kay criticized her own children on air Thursday, condemning them for skipping additional COVID-19 vaccine booster shots.

Speaking with Dr. Zeke Emanuel as a guest host on "Morning Joe," Kay admitted that she was "shocked and appalled" when her children, ages 22 and 16, informed her they would not be getting any additional COVID booster shots.

"I listen to that doctor and you hear how tough it is in the hospitals at the moment, and the fears of new variants, mixed with flu, that is coming on," Kay began. "You would think that the country would respond by saying, 'OK, we will make sure we are all up to date on all of our vaccines.'

"But I had a strange conversation with my 22-year-old and my 16-year-old last night, and I said, 'OK, I booked you in for COVID updates, you're both back for holidays, you're going to get your boosters.' And both of them said, 'No, we don't want to. We've had enough vaccines, and we don't think we need them,'" she continued.

"I was shocked and appalled," Kay admitted.

At first, Dr. Emanuel appeared to share Kay's sentiment, observing that "young people think that they're invincible."

"There are only two things that really can prevent transmission of the COVID virus. One is a good mask, an N95 mask and wearing it, especially in crowded situations, on airplanes and transportation, and the other is better indoor ventilation," he went on to say. "Unfortunately, we’ve gotten to a situation where neither of them seem to be a very high priority to reduce the transmission. And I think that’s where we’re at."

But Dr. Emanuel ultimately condemned people for placing too much emphasis on vaccines.

"Putting every emphasis on vaccines is not going to solve this problem," he declared.

MSNBC guest journalist Katty Kay tells Dr. Anthony Fauci that it’s ‘crazy’ she can travel around the country without showing proof of vaccination



British journalist Katty Kay told infectious diseases expert Dr. Anthony Fauci on Tuesday that she found it "crazy" that she was freely able to travel in the United States without having to show proof of COVID-19 vaccination.

What are the details?

Kay and Fauci appeared on MSNBC's Tuesday broadcast of "Morning Joe" where the two discussed whether they believed that the U.S. government would mandate proof of vaccination to travel — a notion that Kay said is "common practice" across the United Kingdom.

"It seems crazy to me that a year-and-a-half into this [pandemic], you can still, I can still get on a plane to Boston or California and nobody is going to check me," she admitted. "Do you think that needs to change?"

He responded by noting that such a practice was "not on the table yet," but that it is "under consideration."

What else?

On Monday, Fauci, President Joe Biden's chief medical advisor, said that he would support the idea "that if you want to get on a plane and travel with other people that you should be vaccinated."

"It's on the table," he told The Washington Post earlier the same day. "We haven't decided yet. But if the president said, 'You know, let's go ahead and do it,' I would be supportive of it."

He also pointed to remarks that the president made last week in which he said that the Transportation Security Administration would double fines for those who refuse to wear masks in airports.

The Biden administration last week announced new, widespread vaccination requirements for all businesses with more than 100 employees, certain health-care facilities, and all federal employees. On Friday, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki did not rule out vaccine mandates for domestic flights.

"We are always looking at more we can do to protect and save lives," Psaki said in Friday remarks. "Obviously, he made a significant and bold announcement yesterday, so I don't have anything to predict or preview for you, but we'll continue to look for ways to save more lives."
