CNBC economist Jim Cramer announced Monday he’s been diagnosed with Covid-19, despite utmost diligence in taking all recommended Covid-19 vaccines.
The “Mad Money” host admitted he tested positive with the virus on Thursday, posting an un-captioned snapshot of a Covid-19 PCR test showing a positive result.

Cramer also tweeted, “yes I have it.”

Despite being stricken by the virus, Cramer like many went on to claim the illness wasn’t as serious as it could have been since he’d been vaccinated, and claimed he’d continue his hosting duties in order “to show people you can come back quickly if vaccinated.”
Many will become sick and many have passed away. I am on today to show people you can come back quickly if vaccinated. I fear if i hadn’t been 3x vaccinated i would be far more sick

“I fear if i hadn’t been 3x vaccinated i would be far more sick,” he tweeted, laying it on thick.
“I am just grateful to be vaccinated which i think has helped me,” Cramer wrote in another tweet.
i do not want to be glib. Many have died, many are sick, i am just grateful to be vaccinated which i think has helped me, I wish all were vaccinated

Cramer revealed he received two Moderna jab and a booster, and claimed he was “concerned AS EVER for those who are not vaccinated…”
Further i do not mean to make light of the very sick or the families who have lost members. It is hard to describe my feelings. I am grateful to my doctors, to CVS and to Moderna. I wish others would get vaccinated but that is up to them,

Cramer also addressed the diagnosis on Monday’s “Squawk on the Street” program, saying he “came down with Covid on Thursday night” after attending “an event where you had to have PCR [tests].”

“I got it that night from someone who was tested that day,” he said, after testing negative just earlier that day. “The problem is it works so fast. You can’t stop it.”
Cramer admitted his wife was “a little sicker” than he was, adding she’d received a Johnson and Johnson jab followed up by a Moderna booster.
“Without a booster, Moderna’s vaccine has been been found to be far less effective against omicron. The company said it’ll continue to develop an omicron-specific booster,” reports CNBC.
Cramer, who was broadcasting in self-isolation from a home studio, went on to chastise the unvaccinated, claiming they possessed a “level of arrogance.”
“I think the level of arrogance of people who think they know what’s going on is pathetic,” he said. “And I think that what’s happened is that it’s every man for himself … and all I can say is I got triple vaccinated and I don’t know what would happen if you’re not vaccinated but I would probably say that you aren’t up and around as I am.”
The deranged CNBC host has had some pretty bad takes as of late on everything from the economy to forced vaccinations.
Last month he courted controversy when he urged the U.S. military to forcibly inject the American people with the COVID jab, saying, “So it’s time to admit that we have to go to war against COVID.”

“Require vaccination universally. Have the military run it. If you don’t want to get vaccinated, you better be ready to prove your conscientious objector status in court.”
Cramer was steamrolled on Twitter last week after going a step further and claiming “the government has a right to force you to obey.”
government has a right to force you to obey and has always exercised it especially under GOP

Cramer also shilled for the Biden administration when he claimed earlier this month, “Today we have the strongest economy, perhaps, I’ve ever seen,” despite Biden’s cratering poll numbers.

It’s a shame Cramer sees his Covid diagnosis as another opportunity to promote the faulty vaccines, instead of taking their ineffectiveness as a learning opportunity.
