Lauren Jauregui has issued an apology for posting an anti-vax video.
The 23-year-old Fifth Harmony singer shared a video that suggested that COVID-19 was caused by the flu vaccine. “I’ve been saying this,” Lauren captioned the video on her Instagram account. “Freedom stripping. We’ll see what’s up when we wake the f*ck up.”
She took it down shortly after fans called her out and noted that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has debunked anti-vax theories.
She got a slew of backlash from many people criticizing anti-vax theories. “I’m sorry if anyone was offended by anything in the video I reposted on my story. I am not personally “anti” anything, I am & will always be pro choice & autonomy. I don’t believe anything should be enforced upon anyone,” Lauren wrote.
