Sarah Palin says she’ll get Covid vaccine ‘over my dead body’

Former vice-presidential candidate also falsely claimed that those who would refuse a vaccine outnumbered those taking them

Sarah Palin, the former Alaska governor and vice-presidential candidate, used the same week that the US passed 800,000 Covid-19 deaths to tell a rightwing gathering she would add to that toll herself before she would agree to be given a vaccine.

It'll be over my dead body that I'll have to get a shot," Palin told a cheering crowd. I will not do that. I won't do it, and they better not touch my kids either."
