Prévéa Health noted Aaron Rodgers would no longer serve as spokesperson for the Wisconsin medical clinic chain on Saturday after a nine-year partnership, a day after Rodgers spoke publicly about his decision not to be vaccinated against Covid-19 and issued doubts fueled by misinformation about vaccines’ safety.

Highlights

Prevea, which has 80 sites and 2,000 employees, said it is committed to encouraging people to get vaccinated against Covid-19.

Key context

It was revealed on Wednesday that Rodgers had tested positive for Covid-19 and had not been vaccinated against Covid-19 although he previously told reporters he was “immune”. Rodgers explained on Friday his decision not to get the shot on Pat McAfee Show, claiming he was allergic to an ingredient in the two FDA-cleared Covid-19 mRNA vaccines and disliked the side effects of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine. Trials have shown that the side effects of all three vaccines are generally mild, with the rarity of the more severe ones more than outweighed by the damage the disease itself can cause. Rodgers also said he was concerned about infertility and fertility issues. The Centers for Disease Control says there is no evidence that vaccines cause fertility problems. Rodgers said he was taking ivermectin to treat the virus, following the advice of comedian and podcaster Joe Rogan. The antiparasitic drug is not approved for use to treat coronavirus. Roughly 93% of NFL players said they were vaccinated during the preseason.
