(Paul Joseph Watson) The Daily Show’s Trevor Noah questioned whether the CEO of Moderna had a conflict of interest in calling for new vaccines to fight Omicron, only to be attacked as an “anti-vaxxer” by his own fans.

Yes, really.
A clip of the segment was posted on Twitter a few hours ago and is already stoking controversy.
In it, Noah points out that all the cases of Omicron so far have been characterized by mild symptoms, a perfectly accurate point (no one in the world has died from the new variant yet).

“The guy who stands to make millions of dollars from new vaccines says we need new vaccines, huh?” asked Noah.
The comedian then made a joke about Moderna CEO Stéphane Bancel buying a Ferrari with his vast profits.
Earlier this week, Bancel said that existing vaccines wouldn’t provide sufficient protection against the Omicron variant, remarking, “This is not going to be good.”
“I’m not saying that the CEO of Moderna is lying…I’m just saying I don’t think he’s the most objective source on this topic,” said Noah. “I’ll wait to hear what neutral experts say about a new vaccine.”
However, the comments in the thread below what are perfectly cogent comments by Noah are filled with angry leftists denouncing him as an “anti-vaxxer.”
“Jesus. What’s the difference between this and what the anti-vaxx right has been saying?” asked Nick Pappas.

“@Trevornoah indistinguishable from an antivaxxer right now,” complained another.

“This is irresponsible and can get people killed. Shame on y’all,” remarked another.

Questioning the impartiality of the CEO of Moderna when it comes to selling vaccines will “get people killed”?
That’s quite the stretch.
“This is literally the same rhetoric anti-vaxxers use,” said another.

“This is no different than anti vax messaging,” commented another.

A significant portion of other comments however praised Noah for at least showing some level of reasoned skepticism, something that is completely absent in other late night talk show hosts.
Case in point, and we’re sorry to remind you about this, being Stephen Colbert.

Stillness in the Storm Editor: Why did we post this?
The news is important to all people because it is where we come to know new things about the world, which leads to the development of more life goals that lead to life wisdom. The news also serves as a social connection tool, as we tend to relate to those who know about and believe the things we do. With the power of an open truth-seeking mind in hand, the individual can grow wise and the collective can prosper.
