It hasn’t even been a year, this is psychotic

I’ve lost all interest in Matthew and now his movies. He has lost this fan but I’m sure he is making new ones from the Republican wave. Sad times

Why do you care what he says or does? Please report the news.

We really need to ignore actors telling us about health issues and listen more to your doctor who has and knows your medical history. And it goes the same for politicians!

I'm not a Doctor, but I play a guy who knows one on TV.

This is where we are as a country: people are getting their medical advice from actors, football players, and comedians turned podcasters vs. scientists, epidemiologists, and infectious disease experts who studied for years and have practiced for decades. idiocracy

Misinformation from anyone is wrong!

He needs to stick to selling Lincolns.

Acting in movie one thing & learning Science is bit difficult or worse impossible to understand quick. He is not even close to defeat Abbott or let alone Bitto.

More of a chance of complications from vaccine than actual covid

The problem here is we can't trust anyone involved in all this.

Another McC DOOF...GENETIC?

This isn’t a newsworthy comment. It’s not ok for parents to question this when it’s obvious kids are not at severe risk from covid?

We all know that Hollywood produces experts in every field. 😂

Tell more lies to Maddie and her parents as you use us and our children as Human Lab Rats, Improperly Tested Experimental DNA altering Mix and Match vaccines.

Some people just don't understand what a pandemic is!💀

Paging Dr. Wooderson...

The so called Covid-19 vaccine is a experiment paid for by the taxpayers, what is exactly in the so called vaccine ? people that have had a bad reaction to the shot are ignored by the media, its about population control and fear.

Great. Now I have to dislike fucking McConaughey and I really like him. FFS. Damnit.

Matthew needs to take his kids out of school and go on about his business. He can afford excellent unvaxxed private teachers.

McConaughey is another useless moron in the mold of Donald Trump - Matt is likely dumber than tfg, and that’s not an easy thing to accomplish

Personally, I'd rather not be injected with ANY Vaccine derived through the use of Stem Cell Lines grown from the cultivation of aborted fetal cells from the 70s & 80s; all three mRNA Vaccines were, and apparently don't have much to show for their claims.

90% effective is worse than their success rate without the vax

I bet he was a polio child

Parents who want to see more safety data before choosing to vaccinate their kids are not anti-vax, they are pro-science.

Why do I care what McConaughey thinks? Is he a scientist, a doctor? No, he is an actor for god's sake. An actor! I'll go with Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy thank you.

What long-term studies support the claim(s) that these injectables are safe?

But didn’t Matthew play a doctor once? I’d go with his word..

He doesn’t care, because he’s running for political office.

Good for McConaughey there’s no reason to do it yet.

Let's see if the liberals go after him

Matthew played a doctor in a movie so it’s ok.

Hoe can you know when it's only just been rolled out..also safe as in?.. 99.99% survival rate from coronavirus? That kind of safe!

So don't Vax your kids McConaughey let others choose for themselves. Their bodies their choices, or is that a one way street? Keep your political aspiring nose.

Sad that some Americans think he would be a good candidate to run for office..... Wow

One only has to ‘respond’ to a celebrity in America. Unbelievable. McConaughey is a frat boy/actor. No one needs to respond to him on this issue.

Continually responding and calling out anyone who’s made the choice to either have/not have the vaccine themselves and their decision as the whether they want their children to have it needs to stop.

I try not to take medical advice from a guy who looks like he has mange.

What's the ethnicity of 10k or of these children that the experiments were being done on?

McConaughey needs to button it up.

Why would we care what McConaughey thinks

U.S. Surgeon General Responds to Matthew McConaughey’s Stance on Vaccinating Children Against COVID-19The Oscar-winning actor said on Tuesday he 'couldn't mandate having to vaccinate the younger kids' and won't vaccinate his own children yet because he still wants 'to find out more information.' Jesus, really? I hope they weren't too critical in their response. Matthew McConaughey's a national treasure. facetious Why are we supposed to have any interest in what these actors think about such things ? Tbf, McConaughey seems not to speak out of ignorance like so many others but out of the fear of anything happening to his mother. He admits he doesn’t think there is any conspiracy and just wants to not rush it. I hope he vaccinates his childrem sooner than later though. (1/2)

Matthew McConaughey — Weighing Texas Gov. Run — Says He Needs ‘More Information’ Before Vaccinating His Kids Against Covid-19The actor is publicly toying with a run for political office — a gambit he told the New York Times on Tuesday he’s taking seriously. Sounds logical so I imagine the media will only attack him because all the presstitutes care about is the corporate agenda. https://marketinglegend.tube/welcometofuture Well, given that mRNA vaccines are categorized as “gene therapy”, I’m with him on that….
