SAN FRANCISCO—Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone of San Francisco recently revealed that he remains unvaccinated. The San Francisco Archdiocese has spoken positively about the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines and encourages churchgoers to get a shot.
During a podcast interview with the San Francisco Chronicle on Dec. 1, Cordileone said he has a good immune system and his personal physician told him that it’s probably not necessary for him to be vaccinated.
