I’m not vaccinated, and it’s a requirement to be vaccinated.”
“I’m not vaccinated, I will not get vaccinated. I haven’t been vaccinated since I was a little kid. I don’t vaccinate my dogs, I don’t vaccinate my horses. I’ve never had a flu shot. I never will. I believe they compromise your immunities. It’s just my beliefs. I just don’t believe in that stuff”, Forrie J. Smith added.
