      MS is not contagious and is not stopped or cured with a vaccine. His information is very misleading to those listening to him speaking.

      CNN loves to destabilize nations and point the US armed forces where and who to bomb next. They led so many countries to their destructions and never never criticized Israel. CNN is part of US/western spy agencies. CNN leads the way first then the MIC flows it.

      If you took this gene therapy good for you, then you don't need to worry about those who aren't. It should be a choice. Natural immunity should be allowed. Exclusions for health, religious reasons, etc. should be allowed. True statics should be told, reported, & not covered up. Optional prevention & treatments should be allowed. These shots still have side effects so they have risks involved and there should be no censorship like there is now. Drs should be allowed to treat their patients the way they think is most appropriate for them & not fear losing their license. Also, Col. Powell didn't die of COVID. I've had family members who had COVID that recovered without hospitalization. 1 vax (mandated) ,1 not (wife was mandated). I'm not & will not take this gene experiment. Mandates are unconstitutional & against take Vit D3, B complex & other supplements & have for yrs. Get my flu vax yearly. Have visited friends without masks, one who has been homeless on & off, diabetic since this started & have not had COVID.& even have commodities including a heart attack last year from an electrical problem with my heart, not a plague build up problem (thanks to taking CoQ10 for the last 10 yrs-Dr. recommended & chromium picolinate for my thyroid instead of thyroid med). You say we should have open & honest debates but CNN, MSN, etc. hasn't done that because that doesn't fit the narrative & you know this. Those who have tried lost their jobs with you, MSN, etc. So good luck with having open, honest & fair debates. I'll believe it when I see it.

      "I can't shut up about mine." Good for you Rudolph! Well done! Everyone needs to know about diseases like MS so that they can be sensitized and will donate to research. My disease is chronic depression, but only another depressive can know what it is like. Diseases like MS are physical so are relatable. Not that I would trade places with John King, but no one blames him for his disease and presumes to tell him to pull up his socks or just looks puzzled or changes the subject. They can't relate.

      @@elizabethheyenga9277 a vaccinated person can only "spread" it if they come into direct contact with covid sufferers, with physical transfer. if a covid victim wore a mask it would make it harder (but still possible) to pass it over. if all able people were vaccinated it would still be able to pass around but its effective spreading would be reduced to extinction level, its how most countries removed or massivly reduced viruses like smallpox, measles, t.b., polio etc. the percentage of people in your position are and would be protected in this way, but it seems that a pushback of medical science stops many that can, getting this remedy. i feel for you if people think you're the risk, as that is just not the case, it really is down to the (by now) forcefully ignorant who continually spout anti vax bullshit and refuse to help their fellow human by getting a quick jab (or 2) or even wear a mask. i dont mind stupid if they come vaccinated, after all, we can all be stupid sometimes 😉

    John King - you are telling people NOW! It's never to late to help others tell their story too! Bless you.

    That's why as human beings, people should NEVER judge a book by its cover. God bless you, John King 🙏🏽

    Incredible! John, I saw you during election week and you were fantastic. I'm so impressed at your professionalism and your refusal to "be the story". What you said about "the woman behind you in the coffee shop or the supermarket" was something that we can all learn from. This will go down as one of my favorite and most important CNN clips! All the best to you, John.

    Thank you John King for bringing this to the forefront. Hopefully, more people who are vaccination shy will have a light go on in their head and or heart when they come to realize it’s not just about them. I’ve always admired how hard you work and it’s amazing how you manage to be so professional.
    About standing for so long on a hard surface during elections…cooks and others who stand in their feet for hours use padded surfaces. There are all kinds and colors. Maybe that would help♥️

      A vaccine will not stop MS and will not cure MS. This information is Incorrect and misleading. MS is not the Mumps or Measles it's a condition that's inhererited from parents and or family lineage. Do your own research and you will see the truth.

    It's good to hear someone use their platform to address the public about something so serious. I too suffer from Multiple Sclerosis and it is a challenge in itself and misinformation makes it more frustrating and potentially dangerous.

    John King is the most underrated presenter on CNN in my opinion. He is really great at talking.
