Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) on Tuesday suggested people like himself who have had COVID-19 and recovered do not need to get a COVID-19 vaccine.
“About 30 million people have gotten the infection naturally like myself. The interesting thing is that [there is] no more than a handful of reports of people getting it again, so there’s every indication that having been infected with it provides strong, natural immunity,” Paul told reporters on Capitol Hill in Washington.
