The Attorney General of Indiana does not believe the COVID-19 stats his own state releases

We are up the creek without a paddle.

Here is Rashika Jaipuriar at the Indianapolis Star:

Health care workers are pleading for help as Indiana is seeing record numbers of hospitalizations, but one of the state’s top elected officials said he doesn’t believe it.

Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita appeared in an interview with WSBT 22 in South Bend on Friday, Dec. 17.

In reference to Rokita’s ongoing lawsuits against the federal vaccine mandates, WSBT’s Todd Connor asked, “How do you rationalize trying to stop people from having to get the vaccines, but yet so many in the hospital are the unvaccinated?”

“Well, you know, first of all, I don’t believe any numbers anymore,” Rokita said. “And I’m sorry about that, but this has been politicized.”

“From your state health people, huh?” Connor asks.

“This has been politicized since day one,” Rokita continues.

Watch:

Last week I had the opportunity to discuss vaccine mandates with @WSBT while I was in the Michiana area. It is important that Hoosiers individual liberties are protected in this debate about vaccine mandates. pic.twitter.com/ksNS4tHoCK
