It sounds like Osbourne couldn’t give a damn about the conspiracy theories or the side effects of the COVID-19 vaccine.
He recently had a chat with co-host Billy Morrison for an episode of Ozzy Speaks.
Among many things, the pair spoke on the current pandemic and of course the vaccine. The topic of conspiracies was raised and Osbourne shut it down pretty much instantly.
Osbourne said, “All these different conspiracies about the fucking vaccine, I look at it like this: if I don’t get the shot and I get the virus, there’s a good chance I ain’t going to be here.”
Morrison replies, “Absolutely.”
He also adds, “Between us, I mean, I’ve injected brick dust in the past, and you’ve snorted pretty much anything that’s snortable. You think about what we’ve done, right. Think about the shit we’ve put in our bodies and then we go, ‘Oh yeah, but, ooh, I don’t know about that.”
Osbourne then interjects, “I can’t eat that because it looks a bit off. I can’t eat that chip it fell on the floor.”

To which Morrison naturally erupts with laughter.
For context on Osbourne’s urgency to get the vaccine, Osbourne has emphysema which puts him at a heightened risk of severe pneumonia and of course, contracting COVID-19.
Not only that, Osbourne also shares that a few other things that have happened to him in the past have had lasting effects on his body.
“The surgery I had knocked the crap out of me. But I broke my neck in a quad bike accident [in 2003] and when that healed it squeezed my spinal column, so I was getting all kinds of weird things happening to me. I’d be on stage and I’d suddenly get a sharp shock down one side of my body.”
