Legendary investor Charlie Munger, speaking with Yahoo Finance Editor-in-Chief Andy Serwer in an exclusive interview, spoke bluntly about vaccine hesitancy in the U.S.
“I have been appalled by the fear of vaccination by a big chunk of the nation,” the Berkshire Hathaway vice chairman said when asked about the COVID-19 pandemic. “Speaking for myself, I couldn’t wait to be vaccinated. And I think the risks of being vaccinated are way less than the risk of not being vaccinated."
According to the CDC, there’s a minuscule 0.002% chance of the vaccine causing death while approximately 5 people per one million vaccinated in the U.S. have gone into anaphylactic shock. In comparison, according to the CDC, unvaccinated individuals are at least 14 more likely to die from COVID than someone who is fully vaccinated and 68 times more likely to die from the virus than someone who has received their booster shot.
About 64.5% of the U.S. population is fully vaccinated, according to the CDC, meaning that about 35.5% of the population is not fully vaccinated.
“It’s really, massively stupid not to welcome vaccination,” the 98-year-old Munger said. “We probably have 30% of the people in the country that think vaccination is evil and [are] coming after them like the hobgoblins. It’s not good that there’s that much ignorance left.

“If I were running the world, of course it would be mandatory,” Munger said. “When I was in World War Two’s army, they didn’t ask me if I wanted a vaccination. They just vaccinated me. It didn’t hurt me or anybody else in that world. We all just submitted to whatever the government told us to submit to. And it was no big deal…..”

AND what exactly does this bafoon know about the vaccine other than what some paid flunky / lacky and the government sponsored media told him?
Also who is he to assume his opinion should be more important than any individuals right to choose for themselves.
And over 22,000 young people who’ve developed myocarditis after getting the jab??? Fact revealed by a CDC whistleblower!
He then proceeded to eat his napkin and poop in the piano.
Wanna bet he’s got stock in Big Pharma.
Let’s talk about Polio — vaccination is a good idea!
Let’s talk about Measles — vaccination is a good idea!
Most people think vaccination is a good idea!
Let’s talk about COVID-19 — there is no vaccine!
Medical experiments without informed consent are a bad idea!
This is the guy Steve Kirsch has been waiting for to debate vaccine safety (of course , he doesn’t need the $ 1 m, but he’ll take it anyway)
Dude is a Chi-Com simp and what is wrong with Billionaires.
Why would an “Investor”, no matter how good, know anything about Natural Immunity?
There is no money in it.
Hmm, guy fought in WW2
We all just submitted to whatever the government told us to submit to. And it was no big deal…..
WW2 was about freeing people from state sponsored oppression and this guy has no problem with forced submission to the state.
Which side he was fighting for again?
A) They were in the Army, not civilians, and B) They went to war to fight nazis like you, Munger.
Given what he stated are you sure he was not wearing black or grey in WW2?
Big difference between a 98 year and a 10 year old dying from it.
#pureblood
proud of it.
They're experimental...period!
I have no problem with people choosing to get them. I,personally,have gotten three. OTOH I do have a *huge* problem with Americans being punished in various ways for refusing. Being fired for refusing? Despicable!
Munger is a German surname.
And those Vaccines actually did something.
These Vaccines stopped doing ANYTHING for Covid 19 since about December in the US and Big Pharma adtmits it if someone would just ask them.
Super strange that nobody does. It’s almost like Big Pharma is buying their silence.
XD XD XD
Nice.
Charlie Munger is a close friend of Warren Buffet, a kindly version of George Soros.
Nobody is this stupid.
I bet he is invested in the “vax”
