Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin said she will not get a COVID-19 vaccine and insisted that the government "better not force" her kids to get vaccinated.
"It'll be over my dead body that I get a shot," Palin, the 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee, said during an appearance at Turning Point USA's AmericaFest in Phoenix Sunday. "I will not. I won't do it, and they better not touch my kids either."

"Those of us who have had COVID, they're telling us that even though we've had it, we have natural immunity, now that we still have to get a shot," Palin added.
