Bill Maher Throws Down With Seth MacFarlane in Fiery Debate Over Covid Vax: ‘Aaron Rodgers Didn’t Need It!’
Real Time host Bill Maher argued with the creator of Family Guy Seth MacFarlane about the effectiveness of the Covid-19 vaccine on the the comedian’s podcast.
In the latest episode of Club Random, Maher and MacFarlane went head-to-head over the vaccine and whether it was effective in warding off the virus, with Maher criticizing the medical establishment in the U.S. for not promoting natural immunity.
“I would think this country did not allow for natural immunity to be considered. And I know this is a subject dear to your heart. Like, even if you had the disease, you still had to get a vaccine. That’s powerful stupid. They don’t do that in Europe,” Maher noted.
MacFarlane claimed that the effectiveness of natural immunity surrounding Covid has been debunked, arguing “don’t you know people have had COVID four or five times? I do. That’s not natural immunity. There’s no immunity there. You’ve had Covid five times.”

Maher then retorted that while he believes individuals in high risk groups, including the elderly and the obese should be vaccinated, athletes like Tennis star Novak Djokovic “didn’t need it” along with NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
The Family Guy creator then asked what was the “downside” of “getting a vaccine” — causing Maher to go on a 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. 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. This is not a screed to say don’t do vaccines. I’m not against doing vaccines. I’m against doing vaccines that I don’t think I need. I should be able to decide that for myself inside my body.
