Interesting

Pope does know that we don’t need a vaccin.

Vatican Art collection could buy a lot of food and medicine. justsaying 🙄

hypocritical!

Of course rich people say yes; 'ok Popie, we will let ourselves die first, so the poor and vulnerable people would get the vaccine first.'

Not in marcorubio's soul to do that. He quotes scripture. He doesn't live it.

lol won’t happen, it’s worth a try though

Thank you Pontifex! it makes perfect sense for they're the ones who serve you thus can bring you Covid_19!

It’s not like there are so many rich persons that it would take years to vaccinate them. Also, Mr. Pope, that “rich” word includes you.

Yep, already donated mine.

this is terrible news
